Saddam verdict just in time for Sunday news shows -- coincidence? |
The trial went on for over a year... and now, all of a sudden, two-days
before one of the most important American elections in recent times,
and incredibly, just hours before the all-important Sunday morning news
blitz in the US (the only serious debate that tens of millions of
Americans watch), suddenly we're treated to a guilty verdict and and
sentence of death?
I'm not bringing this up because I'm worried about the "Iraqi justice
system" -- it doesn't even exist yet, as far as I can see. I bring this
question up because, frankly, it reminds me of... whatever when on
under the table between Reagan and the Iranians during the hostage
crisis. This whole thing looks quite blatantly like somebody on the
Republicans side, probably in the Bush administration, made some
promises to people able to pull strings in the scheduling of the Saddam
trial, in order to time the verdict and sentence so that the
Republicans could make fullest use for their elections.
And if you think otherwise, you probably still believe in the tooth
fairy. Because what are the chances that a year-long bumbling process
would come to a official head today? The timing of this is incredible
-- I mean, I'm sure the Iraqi's have hard working justice system -- but
dumping this on their public (which, we should remember, for them is
akin to throwing gasoline on a fire) on a Sunday of all days? More
interestingly, an hour or so before the critical round of Sunday
morning news programs begins on the East Coast of the US? Two days
before the most critical election since the Republican Revolution?
I don't think you can make too much out of it: that blitz of Sunday
"Face The Nation", "Meet The Press", "Chris Matthews", and not to
mention all the local/regional political shows -- how those shows go
will gain or lose seats in this coming election. It is that simple. And
hearing Frist, for example, telling voters today that "Finally justice
has been served" -- for so many brain-dead Republicans, it *really
does make a difference*, they feel for a few days like hey, now it was
all "worth it", because this key objective that was getting
embarrassingly lost in an incompetent legal process, NOW seems
achieved.
I hope some serious investigation on the journalistic side gets a peek
in to what exactly happened here, because this is beyond coincidence.

Yes. We are hoping he can be talked into committing suicide before the 6:00
news tomorrow night.

The whole reverend resignation was also a timely coincidence, don't you
think?

Apples and oranges dummy.
All you do is parade your ignorance, like all republicans.
Saddam's trial was the geo-politcal result of a war of agression, and all
American have to show for the sacrifice of almost 3,000 lives, 20,000
wounded and a half trillion dollars is the conviction of a worn out old
dictator no one gives a ***** about but republicans who are desperatly
looking for some kind of justification for the monumental waste of human
life and money.
So, they stage his conviction 2 days before a national election.
The preacher simply got caught sucking ***** and taking dope, and it was only
big news because he has ties to the whitehouse, the president and the
alledged moral and values ***** you assholes try to fake every day of the
week.
There is no democrat that could manipulate the sex and drug habitsof this
fradulent man of god. Bu there is a republican machine that can easily
manipulate the day of a conviction in Iraq, since they occupy Iraq, set the
curfews, declare martial law, tell them when to have elections, when to
write their constitution and give them hundreds of billions of dollars and
150,000 American soldiers. You're about as dumb as they come goober. Go
find gomer and help him change a tire, you're not good at this at all. BTW,
Al Sharprton make you look like the stupidist man on the planet.

Yeah right and Haggards story breaking just a few days beforehand
wasn't a coincidence?
BTW Saddam was found guilty by a court made up entirely of Iraqis.
The US had no involvment with his sentencing. Of course if you want
to talk about the Iraqi government trying to influence our election
then it is also fair to bring up the recent terrorist endorsements of
the Democrats as well yes?

It was the decision of Mr. Jones, who outed him. According to his
statements, he was incensed when he found out who Haggard was
and that he was Sundaily bashing gays from the altar and preaching
against equal rights for homosexuals. Was Mr. Jones motivated
by politics? Apparently so. But there is a difference between an
individual person making a politically-motivated revelation about a
hypocritical preacher and the government manipulating the media
for political advantage.

I wonder how much the RNC paid for those endorsements.
