A Comedy of egos?

It would appear that former Iraqi strongman Saddam Hussein is deluded into thinking that he is in some kind of position to talk:
Translators have been instructed not to translate everything Saddam says during his trial anymore, especially when he begins what have become his customary tirades. He told the judge Monday not to interrupt him because he was the Iraqi leader for 30 years and deserves his time to speak. (emphasis added)
But, not to be outdone by Saddam's ego, our own former Atty General, now turned-traitor Ramsey Clark tried to butt in for an extra fifteen seconds of fame:
Before the defense team walked out of court in protest, former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark, who is helping represent Saddam, told the judge he needed just two minutes to present his argument. But Chief Judge Rizgar Mohammed Amin at first said only Saddam's lead attorney, Khalil al-Dulaimi, could speak.
Thanks, Judge Rizgar. I love it anytime a self-righteous moonbat is taken down a few notches...

And speaking of a few notches, are there any takers:?

Ibrahim stood up and shouted: "Why don't you just execute us and get rid of all of this!"
Tempting... mighty tempting...
