Carla Faye Stem Cell

[Stinky The Clown]

I know this could be seen by some as tasteless, but I can't stop thining about the giggling hater who has the power of the pen ... or in his case, the crayon.

In the case of Carla Faye Tucker, he chose to giggle and mock. And then not sign.

In the case of a possible cure for many diseases afflicting millions of us, he chose to act stern. And then sign.

History will judge him far more ably than I. Through the lens of historical distance, I predict that he will be as reviled as any villian ever.

1. Karla Faye Tucker, he mocked after he execution.

So disgusting it sickened even Tucker Carlson, who did the interview, and George Will, who wrote about it afterwards. That was before Will began comparing Bush's illiteracy to Hemmingway's terse but brilliant style. That's when I knew Will had stopped speaking his mind and was only pimping the Republican viewpoint--no way a wordsmith like Will could honestly make that comparison.

You are right. He kills with a pen. The ultimate beauracratic murderer, without the courage to face his deeds.

2. I was in Austin the night that Carla Faye went down...

Ms.Tomintib here...

I was to meet Tom on a tryst - he didn't show (although he is with me now) and I have a vivid memory of staying in The Driscoll Hotel and observing the demise of Carla Faye...it was kind of surreal...stranded in TX watching the death of one of the rare women to be executed, and feeling like a fish out of any water I have ever known. Land of executions.

All that I knew was that TX was the leading state in executions, under GWB. GWB of the "snowflake babies" and protecting "innocent" life. Get born, mess up, and we have every right to kill you. Just a gleam in Daddy's eye...you have every protection under the law, except support.

Kind of interesting that embryos have better health care and more protections under the law than actual walking and talking living human beings. Where is my petri dish when I need it?
