I went to the market to pick up a copy of today’s Orange County Register, and I was forced to take a serious double take in front of the newsrack. A huge headline at the top of the paper shouted, “Saddam Hanged.” Fine, but a few inches below it was an almost-as-large headline reading, “Tribute fits the man.” It was only upon closer examination that I noticed the second headline had a smaller one above it with the notation, “Gerald R. Ford 1913-2006.” Somehow, I think they should’ve rearranged things a bit.
That being said, hanging Saddam Hussein could definitely be considered a “tribute” that fits the man.
