Ramsey Clark joins Saddam Hussein's legal team --Former US attorney general Ramsey Clark is to join the defence team of Saddam Hussein, a spokesman for the toppled Iraqi president's lawyers said today. Mr Clark, who held the office of attorney general under US president Lyndon B. Johnson, "is one of the members of the defence team of president Saddam Hussein," Ziad Khassawneh said. "This honours and inspires us."

2. I think Saddam has a right to a vigorous defense

But I can't help wishing that Ramsey Clark would fade away because he's a loon, and he's fodder for the right wing's efforts to portray the left as anti-American.
