Saddam Hussein To Be Sentenced Sunday: Another Rove Trick!

By: Pam On: Nov/2/06 - 4 Comments

The tyrant who gassed and tortured his own people, is scheduled to be sentenced on Sunday. As you might of guessed, the left is full of the “this was planned to happen right before the election“!

A verdict in the first criminal case against Saddam Hussein is expected two days before a key US midterm vote that has become a referendum on the Iraq war — but any benefit for President George W. Bush’s Republican Party was unclear.
The verdict is to be presented on Sunday, just ahead of Tuesday’s vote in which Bush’s Republicans appeared poised to lose control of Congress…

… On the Internet, in US leftist discussion forums and among some bloggers, there is a strong suspicion that the date was chosen on purpose to benefit the Republicans.

“Given the Bush administration’s history of timing national security-related actions to the political calendar, has the date for the verdict’s release been set to provide maximum political benefit for the administration and congressional Republicans?” asked a blogger on the DemocraticUnderground.com discussion site.

Tom Engelhardt, writing in the leftist The Nation magazine, notes that the verdict comes “curiously enough, just two days before the midterm elections. It’s the sort of the thing that — you would think — any reporter with knowledge of the US election cycle … would at least note in an article. But no, you can search high and low without finding a reference to this in the mainstream media.”

US Ambassador in Iraq Zalmay Khalilzad rejects the charges, insisting that the date was set by Iraqi judges and that Washington had no role in the decision.

    OF COURSE IT IS TIMED PERFECTLY FOR THE ELECTIONS. GET REAL.
    I DO NOT PUT ANYTHING PAST KARL ROVE OR THE LUNATICS RUNNING “OUR” (NOW THEIRS) COUNTRY. HOW CAN YOU EVEN DOUBT THAT THE TIMING IS PERFECT FOR THEM. TWO DAYS BEFORE THE ELECTIONS AND THEY CAN SAY (BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD THE VERDICT PREPARED AND READY TO PULL OUT OF THEIR POCKETS SINCE THEY CAPTURED HIM) “LOOK WHAT WE HAVE DONE. WE ARE GETTING THAT HORRIBLE DICTATOR PUT TO DEATH”. NEVER MIND THAT THEY ARE NO BETTER THAN HE IS IF AS GOOD.
