Bush Supports Rapist/Murderer and International Criminal Court Over Texas Justice
Tuesday, October 9th, 2007It would be impossible the parody the depth to which George W. Bush has sunk. A truly unprincipled traitor to his country and now his adopted home state:
President George W. Bush, who presided over 152 executions as governor of Texas, wants to halt the state’s execution of a Mexican national for the brutal killing of two teenage girls. Texas wants the death penalty to be carried out.
The case of Jose Ernesto Medellin has become a confusing test of presidential power that the U.S. Supreme Court ultimately will sort out.
The president wants to enforce a decision by the International Court of Justice that found the convictions of Medellin and 50 other Mexican-born prisoners violated their rights to legal help as outlined in the 1963 Vienna Convention.
