Put the snipers on the roofs now. And alert the Korean community to be ready.

Also, I doubt that "work" will have any influence on whether or not the Hollywood crowd and libs show up for a riot or not. ;)

This is great. Let's agree to stay his execution for the murder in question. We will put this execution off until after the hearing but go ahead on the other 3 executions now.

Clemency??? You've got to be kidding. I thought Arnold had more guts than that. Ok, so the taxpayers have been feeding and clothing him for a couple decades, 30 days isn't going to matter that much.

No.  False alarm.  Another Freeper and I both thought we heard Greg Jarrett say that the Gov gave him a pardon.

Still waiting for news.

Here is how the curtains might go down on the Tookster.

The "clinician" will rub some alcohol on his right forearm to sterilize the area of the needle puncture (Hell, we don't wan't it to get infected, do we ?). A needle will go in and deliver 2 gm of Sodium Pentothal. This will knock out Tookie, and if he is lucky he won't be conscious to know what happens to him later. After a couple of minutes or so, PANCURONIUM Bromide will be administered to "relax" his muscles, basically to collapse his lungs. Well Tookie better hope that he is totally unconscious at this stage, you don't want to be awake and realize you cannot breathe. Finally the good doctor will inject massive amounts of potassium Cholride into his bloodstream that will interfere with the sodium/potassium ionic balance and stop his heart. If the Tookster is still awake, this is going to hurt like Hell.

Come on now Tookie, you knew this was going to happen when you killed those people 25 years ago, didn' you ?

From behind bars, Williams has been nominated five times for a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to quell gang violence and four times for a Nobel Prize in literature.

Anyone know who it was that nominated him for the Nobel Prize?

I'm thinking that if he were going to grant clemency he would have announced it by now. I think he wants to wait until the end of the weekend to forestall any possible rioting.

Hmmmmm, interesting theory. I could be wrong, but I think that the folks who are against granting Tookie clemency are less likely to cause serious rioting, but would rather to voice their disapproval in a more mature fashion. It's the loony libs that are known for going crazy (literally) when they don't get their way.

It would be cool if the warden were to announce that they had accidentally executed Tookie last night. That would certainly relieve the tension.

Bush has backtracked because someone screwed up and didn't check out Tookie's background. Kind of like Joe Wilson.

From behind bars, Williams has been nominated five times for a Nobel Peace Prize for his efforts to quell gang violence and four times for a Nobel Prize in literature.

This is a virutal public announcement that the entire Nobel enterprize (in Peace and Literature) is seething with leftist politics, is nothing but a sham that is used to trick gullible news readers, reporters, and editors into promoting, and lending prestige, to radical politics (not that this is any surprise to anyone here).

I'd like to imagine that every single time any reference is made on broadcast media to a Nobel prize (Peace and Lit.) any conservatives present would immediately launch themselves into howls of ridicule saying such things as "Isn't that the outfit that wanted to give the multiple murderer who founded the Crips some big prize?"

I believe that award has been retracted. It is much like the Nobel nominations. Some politician trying to get Tookie clemency put him in for the community service award and some idiot who runs that office for the administration and didn't know who they were rewarding approved the award.

If he is such a model of caution for kids re: gangs, why would he be making this appeal? Why not instead say, "Please stop these motions. I deserve my fate. Kids remember this. This could be you and this is terrifying and certainly not cool."

I know you are kidding.

But the last time they had a sensitive verdict to read, they announced it at a really odd time ... like early morning mid-week so as to discourage the Friday afternoon verdict and rioting all weekend.

Then let's rename it. Now it's the NoBall prize.

Tookie needs immediate death - but I bet he won't get it.

Does anybody remember the woman who was put to death while Bush was still governor of Texas? I believe she had been a prostitute who had killed a "client" or helped somebody else kill him - but she had become a Christian and had definitely turned her life around. She probably deserved a pardon, but politically, Bush couldn't do it.

Tookie doesn't deserve a pardon, but I bet politically, since Arnie is courting the left, it's going to be impossible for the Gov to deny him one.
