I'll put $100 on the US Army

I knew that people would gamble on almost anything -halftime scores, pass caught in a quarter, over/under, stolen bases, whatever. But I was only really aware of sports betting. Not so. According to CNN.com you can now gamble on Saddam's future.

I would think that you would have to have a pretty serious gambling problem or a pretty good sense of humor to bet on his future. This isn't quite the same as a fun wager on football or baseball scores. There is something much more disturbing, almost sinister, about betting on someone's future. Once again, we prove that man will do almost anything to push the bounds of good taste.
