The world's supply of irony seems to be in no danger of running low:

Iraq detainees to get vote -- including Saddam

BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Thousands of detainees in Iraqi jails should be able to vote in the constitutional referendum this week -- including former president Saddam Hussein, the country's Electoral Commission said.

Though details on Monday were scant, it raised the unlikely prospect of Saddam and his aides marking "Yes" or "No" to a constitution that specifically bans the "Saddamist Baath party."

I wonder if he'll write in a vote for himself in December?
