Saddam and Gomorrah

Certainly that would have been true 20 years ago Sweder. Almost makes one ache for the pre-satellite, pre-round the clock TV that said goodnight after the national anthem at midnight.

You just have to watch a bit of BBC News 24 to see that Our Auntie has had to go the way of the the commercial stations to compete and sadly, MLC is absolutely right.

Thank god for my off button. I'm sure we've all flipped through our 'choice' of some 300 channels and found bugger all worth watching.

On the subject of Saddam, I certainly do not support capital punishment per se, but one should IMO respect the laws of the land in which he was tried.
