Representative Kucinich on the killing of Saddam Hussein

On his campaign website Representative Kucinich uses the words "accountability" and "punishment" to provide context for the killing of Saddam Hussein.

This fails to convey the sense that the "trial" was a sham, the body conducting the "trial" a creation of a foreign occupational power, not operating under Iraqi law, resulting in the killing of a person in the custody of the United States.

I've urged him to to issue a clarification, to reconside his choice of words.

I was a delegate pledged to Dennis Kucinich at the Maine Democratic Party Convention in 2004.
