Why am I not surprised?
Ramsey Clarke to defend SaddamI'm so glad to hear that Clark is looking out for the rights of people. Too bad he wasn't around to defend the rights of all those people found in the mass graves.
Former US attorney-general Ramsey Clark is to join Saddam Hussein's defence team, a spokesman for the ousted Iraqi president's lawyers says.
Ziad Khasawna said on Wednesday that Clark, who held the office of attorney-general under US president Lyndon Johnson, had "honoured and inspired" the legal team by agreeing to help defend Saddam.
The former top US justice official, who arrived on Tuesday in Jordan where the defence team is based, has become known as a left-wing lawyer and firm critic of US foreign policy since leaving office.
He visited Saddam in Baghdad in February 2003 just before the US-lead invasion and has also been involved with the defence of former Yugoslav leader Slobodan Milosevic, on trial for war crimes at a UN court in The Hague.
Clark said in the Jordanian capital Amman that his principle concern was protecting the former president's rights, who only saw a lawyer for the first time this month - a year after his capture.
"In international law, anyone accused of crime has the right to be tried by a confident, independent and impartial court, and there can be no fair trail without those qualities," he said.
Yup, this sure gives a lot more credence to those barking moonbats over at International ANSWER.....

Ashcroft doesn't hold a candle to this guy. With Ramsey Clark in the history books, it would be hard to top him as the most morally bankrupt AG ever. He actually represents ANSWER very well!
By the way-- happy new year, Mikey! hoping for a health, wealth, and happiness for you and yours in '05!

While the liberal sites seem to be focused on the horrible disasters in asia. Many of these sites offering links to help those in need over seas.
why is that?

I don't know and I don't care - just because I'm not waving my arms over this doesn't mean that I don't care.
It just means that I don't wear my heart on my sleeve....

we are blinded with belief in the democratic court system ! Saddam is from another tougher world and pressing American logic on him in the charges does not help ! I hope and pray for a mild verdict !!
