I….. I didn’t know he died.. I had to google it. And surprisingly, He died on my birthday… Now, the humorist in me would say, “what a great gift!” However, I didn’t know much about the man, other than I belive he got OJ safe… Strange ness.

Wow man your behind the times, was this comic made just because Saddam was in the news? He isn’t going to be tried for three more months or something now, it’s crazy.
My real question is: Do the soldiers who found Saddam get the huge reward for him, or that guy who ratted him out?

The Castro, his trial officially started today: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/4355992.stm
Also– it’s the guy who ratted him out who already got the cash I think. They never disclosed who he was or where he is now though.

Looks like Don Cherry dressed Johnnie Cochran for his burial..
This is the reason right here I’d rather be buried than cremated. Somewhere down the line someone is going to raise an unholy army of the dead, and I want in on some of that sweet brain boggling action.

Looks like Saddam’s trial is postponed until November 28th. So Zombie Johnny Cochran is winning already!

It wasn’t “postponed” - today was the first day of the trial. He plead not guilty. The next phase of the trial with witnesses, and all that starts on Nov 28th. This is the usual thing with all court trials. But his trial officially did start today.

Yeah, true, we probably read the same AP feed, I’m just going along with the joke….

THAT NEEDS TO BE A T-SHIRT!
There is no question that Zombie Johnnie Cochran would become a central pillar of American culture.

How in the blue fucking hell is Saddam gonna plead “not guilty” to being a totally batshit fucking crazy dictator who had people killed, as well as hoarding all of Iraq’s natural resources for himself? HOW IN THE HELL IS HE NOT GUILTY?

…by reason of insanity

by the fact that we (the US, in particular, daddy bush and rummy rum rumsfeld and Dick “I’m a cyborg” Cheney) put Saddam in power, provided the weapons for his coup d’etat of the Former Iraqi Government, and ignored all the crazy crap he did? Eh, but what do I know, apparently people aren’t responsible for their past actions in this world. Because IMHO Bush Daddy, Rummy and Cheney-bot should all be on trial with Saddam. They are all just as responsible. Why didn’t they stop the atrocities when they were being committed? instead they wait over a decade? yeah, let’s hear it for the spread of democracy and freedom there. lol. All I can say is one word: Baka!
anyhoo this johnny cochran should bring some friends! I’d bring in F.Lee bailey and the others.

Saddam’s not guilty because he doesn’t feel guilt. He has no shame. It’s Saddam shame.

joe_iguana: you are INSANE
DJ: you are hilarious
P.S. Joe, I believe that there was another world leader who was in charge for eight years of that decade that you mentioned. Any particular reason that you left his name out?

because it wasn’t a hornets nest he stuck his wang into? Clinton sucked, Bush part one and 2 and ol Reagon sucked more. I still dont understand how Clinton’s little pal is worse then some others international fuckups, but still.
