Thereby Hangs a Tale, Or a Thug

I'm opposed to the death penalty. Just to clear that up.
Anyhoo.
We've got a big old dead guy in the news, and Wonkette, as usual, is being irreverent.
I'm sorry. The guy's dead. But sometimes "irreverent" is just right.
So Wonk says:
"Anyway, commenter dimestorefool wins our comment of the day award:
'James Brown, Jerry Ford and now Saddam — why do the great entertainers always die in threes?' "
Salaam, Saddam — the hardest working dictator in showbiz.
