Death Records Now

One only has to check out Bush’s record as Governor of Texas to see his own preference for death over life. During his tenure as Governor, Bush presided over a record setting 152 executions, including the 1998 execution of fellow born-again Christian Karla Faye Tucker, a convicted murderer who later led a prison ministry. Forty of Bush’s executions were carried out in 2000, the year the Bush presidential campaign was spotlighting their candidate’s strong law enforcement record. The Washington Post’s Richard Cohen reported in October 2000 that one of the execution chamber’s "tie-down team" members, Fred Allen, had to prepare so many people for lethal injections during 2000, he quit his job in disgust.

Bush mocked Tucker’s appeal for clemency. In an interview with Talk magazine, Bush imitated Tucker’s appeal for him to spare her life – pursing his lips, squinting his eyes, and in a squeaky voice saying, "Please don’t kill me."
My point is the mocking behavior. that is just cruel

I am 100% for the death penalty for aggravated murder and brutal rape.

However, that does not mean that Bush did not abuse his power as governor by acting like "Hangin’ Judge Roy Bean."

Nor does it mean he is right to be so hypocritical about pretending to be "pro-life" to get the votes of the religious right while being so cavalier about the lives of adult human beings both in Texas and Iraq.

Nor is he right in playing to his political base by professing to "protect the rights" of undifferentiated stem cells at the extreme cost to living, breathing human beings who are suffering intolerably from unspeakable diseases.

Nor is he right in manipulating the truth (lying) in order to pursue a war that he vowed to wage even before becoming President, costing the lives of tens of thousands of Iraqi’s, and causing the deaths of over 3100 brave young Americans, more victims than died during the terrorist attacks of 9/11, which he claimed to be avenging.

Bush does not care about human life any more than he cares about that record number of Americans living in poverty, whose programs he has consistently cut in order to pay for tax breaks for his wealthy friends (and to give a pittance to the middle class, in order to secure the votes of the more gullible among them).

With the possible exception of James Buchanan, George W. Bush is by far the worst and most devastating President ever elected in the United States. The destruction he has cause to the United States in power, international prestige, internal division, and our economy will take decades to repair.

Unfortunately, at least 3,100 young Americans will not be here to see that happen, victims of a President who professes to be "pro-life."

IF YOU STILL DOUBT that the big media is determined to keep under wraps the organized crime origins of the $200 million fortune of John McCain and his wife Cindy, take note of how the prestigious Washington Post touched on the issue in its July 22 edition. Rather, instead, note how the Post covered up the matter.

…The Post also added, almost discretely, that Mrs. McCain’s wealth “may” exceed $100 million (although most sources estimate it is worth $200 million or more) and—for the record—that “she was the apple of her father’s eye.”

The Post did not mention that Mrs. McCain’s father was a highly-placed fixture in the Arizona branch of the national organized crime syndicate: He was the chief henchman of the late Kemper Marley, Arizona point man for infamous mob chief Meyer Lansky and his powerful partners-in-crime, the super-rich Bronfman family of Montreal.

In that capacity—for 40 years until his death in 1990—Marley was undisputed political boss of Arizona, acting as the behind-the-scenes power over both the Republican and Democratic parties.

As such, his wealth and connections played the primary role in advancing John McCain’s political career from the start.

The article also mentions how the mob stuff was suppressed by Newsweek (owned by the Washington Post’s parent company).

During Prohibition, the Canadian-based Bronfmans supplied—and thus controlled—the “spigot” of liquor funneled to Lansky syndicate functionaries in the United States, including Al Capone in Chicago.

After Prohibition, Lansky-Bronfman associates such as Marley got control of a substantial portion of liquor (and beer) distribution across the country. Marley’s longtime public relations man, Al Lizanitz, revealed that it was the Bronfmans who set Marley up in the alcohol business.

In 1948, 52 of Marley’s employees (including Jim Hensley, the manager of Marley’s company) were prosecuted for federal liquor violations. Hensley got a six month suspended sentence and his brother Eugene went to prison for a year.
In 1953 Hensley and (this time) Marley were prosecuted by federal prosecutors for falsifying liquor records, but young attorney William Rehnquist acted as their “mouthpiece” (as mob attorneys are known) and the two got off scot-free. Rehnquist later became chief justice of the Supreme Court and presided over the “fix” that made George W. Bush president in a rightly disputed election.

Arizona insiders say Hensley “took the fall” for Marley in 1948 and Marley paid back Hensley by setting him up in his own beer distribution business.

Consider the source of your "mob" report..Don’t you think that if there were any mob connections that could be remotely connected to McCain, the liberal media would have the story front and center of every outlet? It the NY Times won’t even run with it, there must be some credibility issues.
