Saddam Sentenced To Hang

There will be an automatic appeal, but hopefully he'll meet the hangman as expeditiously as possible:

Saddam Hussein, the iron-fisted dictator who ruled Iraq for nearly a quarter of a century, was found guilty of crimes against humanity Sunday and sentenced to death by hanging.

The so-called Butcher of Baghdad, who was president of Iraq from 1979 until he was deposed by Coalition forces in April 2003, was convicted of the 1982 killings of 148 Shiites in the city of Dujail.

The visibly shaken former leader shouted "God is great!" as Iraq's High Tribunal announced his sentence.

He's sad, he's mad, and he'll probably want some Cheetos. His angry crunches will echo throughout the cellblock.

Here's a little round-up of reactions from Iraqi bloggers:
