In a remarkable turn of events, Senator John Edwards took his trial lawyer experience into court in Iraq. Edwards took to being the Defense Lawyer for Saddam in his trial. He made a defense that Saddam was under duress when he was manufacturing hordes of mustard gas, and slaughtering Kurds. The jury was taken back by the defense and sentenced Saddam to no jail, but a very hefty fine. In an interview after the trial Saddam said that he would use his new job at CBS replacing anchorman Dan Rather to pay off his debt. A CBS spokesman said of Saddam, "He was just the guy we were looking for. He's just the kind of fair and balanced reporter this company looks for."
