So, Saddam's been sentenced to death.

I'm just actually wondering when the execution will take place...after probable appeals and fights in court, I have my doubts that it will happen for a few months at least.

I'm so jealous of the Iraqi's.

Why won't someone come and hang Cheney and Bush and Rumsfeld?

Kissinger still needs hangin', too.

HANGING? WTF? I didn't know anyone did that any more! I say let's bring back the guillotine.

Deleware, New Hampshire, and Washington all still have hanging as a method of execution.

I don't know about Deleware and New Hampshire but in Washington the condemned can choose between lethal injection and hanging and their choice has (or had, it's been a while) to be respected. This lead to a case of a guy choosing hanging and then eating himself to extreme obesity and then claiming they couldn't hang him because the risk of decapitation was inhumane. I don't know what happened with that.

So really, the guy only bought himself an extra six or seven years. In prison. Big whoop.

I no longer believe in the death penalty. I don’t think it is a deterrent. I think the possibility of spending the rest of your life lockup with out your freedom is more of a deterrent.
