SADDAM TRIAL

Fox covered the opening of Saddam's trial this morning which is apparently being broadcast throughout the Middle East. The trial judge, now a marked man for the rest of his life, kept a tight rein on the proceedings. Hopefully, the trial will progress in an orderly fashion with each side presenting their evidence through witnesses and exhibits and provide the people of the Middle East a good example of the rule of law in action. As one talking head said of the trial judge: "He's no Judge Ito." Amen.
