The din of anti-war protesters grows, although in San Francisco it proved no match against panhandlers. Public opinion hasn’t been this blindly polarized since the O.J. Simpson trial. Parallels run deeper than the compunction to watch four gruesome hours of CNN despite your better judgment. The outcome is all but certain and even the players look the same. Saddam as the accused and President Bush as Marsha Clark, virtuous but unable to make a convincing argument in the face of such obvious guilt. Donald Rumsfield glares through his glasses ala Chris Darden, bristling at the hint of criticism with an arrogance neither justified nor supported by his intellect. Finally, Dick Cheney as the profiteering Johnnie Cochran with Halliburton contracts replacing high-profile clientele. Maybe Michael Moore should make a movie.
