In recent years "we" have discovered that at least some of those we have
condemned to die were innocent of the crimes for which they were
sentenced to capital punishment. We have no doubt executed some in this
country who were innocent, but once the convicted are dead no one expends
energy exonerating them.

I'm against capital punishment...but there's little doubt about Saddam's
culpability for the crimes that he was accused of.
