Balloon Juice found this piece of 100% organic anti-war, pro-Saddam, bull-ploppy goodness:
...former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark was quoted on an Islamic Web site saying he would take the job of defending Saddam.
Please, Lord, let this be true.
Let us imagine. Saddam, brought before a panel of Iraqi judges, in full view of the people he oppressed, and broadcast around the world on live TV in a spectacle not seen since the Nuremberg War Crimes Trials in Germany or the Eichmann trial in Israel.
And Ramsey Clark, his defense attorney, stating, with all certainty, with no shred of doubt, that Saddam Hussein is an innocent man. That those 300,000 people in the mass graves we're finding really were thieves, or worse yet, tools of the United States. That the U.S. committed genocide by sanctions while Saddam worked tirelessly to save his people, (pay no attention to all those palaces!) That the U.S., and not Saddam, started the Iran-Iraq war. That we were wrong to drive Iraq out of Kuwait. That we...well, you get the idea.
Ramsey Clark, the pampered son of a Supreme Court Justice, who sided with Communist thugs over his own country, who has defended dictators, despots, and war criminals of all stripes as long as they hated America as much as he. Ramsey Clark, defending Saddam Hussein, a man who started two foreign wars by a lust for power, and a third by sheer obstinance and deceit, who became the only world leader to ever use chemical weapons on his own people, and who lived in a splendor purchased with human blood. Ramsey Clark, all his bloviating force at the service of a man being called to account before a panel of Iraqis, men know what real suffering is, and who if Clark had his way, would still be suffering or in exile from their homeland.
Just imagine it. All the pathologies of the America-hating, dictator-loving, barking moonbat left, laid bare, for all the world to see.
Hey, Ramsey: Bring it on.
And maybe when you're done, you can turn in your passport, finally renounce your American citizenship (a formality, in your case,) and emigrate "to some country where they make no pretense of loving liberty, to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocrisy."
