"How could it have come to this?" — That's what Christopher Hitchens wants to know about "the shameful hanging of Saddam Hussein." It would be hilarious if it weren't so deeply tragic that the "born-again hawk" who has said that " the left ceded its moral credibility by opposing the war against Islamic fascism" without a trace of awareness that it is the left who questioned the Bush Brigade's competency to fight the war before it began while Hitchens sneered, is the one now asking such a ridiculously naïve question.
Steve sighs, "Hitchypoo is shocked, shocked, that his beloved war has led to an execution conducted by sectarian thugs." What a stunner.
