Iraq Executioners Move at Texas-like Speed

NEXT! Saddam • Breakneck pace: Amid controversy about the rush to hang Saddam Hussein, Iraq is prepared to execute his co-defendants as soon as today.

• Related: The alleged cell-phone cameraman who recorded the Saddam hanging is being held by Iraqi officials. Plame-CIA leak investigators, take note.

• Extra-special commentary: O'Reilly slayer Keith Olbermann wields his flaming falafel of justice against Bush (and barely sane superpundit sidekick John McCain) upon news that the president will use "sacrifice" as his new talking point in a push for 20,000 more troops in Iraq.

• Hillary vs. Barack update: Democratic golden boy Barack Obama doesn't scare Hillary Clinton. She thinks that support for him will diminish once people realize how inexperienced he is. Or maybe it'll be the cocaine.

• Nothing like the real thing: Easier-than-thou Paris Hilton has turned down the idea of a sex doll replica of herself. She encouraged interested guys to go after the real Paris Hilton. It's not that hard.

• Drug money?: Those interested in a pair of Whitney Houston's underwear need look no further than the issue-addled superstar's underwear auction next week.
