Sometimes the jokes write themselves...

I guess they were short a player at the Pervo Poker game.

What a wonderful hill these Demo'tards have chosen to die on.

Even more insane than Republicans excusing the use of torture.

I mean, how much worse can the American public do at election time? Maybe elect Cthulhu?; 9:33 PM, September 29, 2009

"Would I want my fourteen year old drugged and forced to have sex? Not necessarily."

I'm just waiting for Elizabeth Taylor to voice his support: "You know, Some of my bestest friends are child molesters."

I'm not defending his crime by any stretch,(my personal thought is that rapists should be afflicted with sudden onset lead poisoning) but it seems that talk radio wasn't giving the full story today. I am disappointed that they overlooked, or perhaps ignored, such a vital fact as why he skipped town. I would like to know why the judge reneged on the agreed penalties. Did some legal rule forbid him from following through? Or does his honor lack honor?; 2:28 AM, September 30, 2009

I am more concerned that anyone would have considered a plea bargain in such a case, than with any reasons why that plea bargain might have fallen through. If raping a thirteen year old is not a crime that demands the death penalty, I don't know what is.; 7:01 AM, September 30, 2009
staghounds said...: Sorry, the United States Constitution forbids the death penalty for rape, even for raping little girls, even if they are tortured, even if they are three, even if there are a hundred of them.

It's cruel and unusual. Executing people who do it, or anything else other than really bad murder, that is.
