Maybe there’s hope after all.

Republicans in a fighting mood and now this.

I’m feeling optimistic.

You're preaching to the choir my FRiend.

You will not find a bigger critic of the liberals Jorge Bush and Juan McCain.

Bush is the man reason I left the Republican Party after 32 years. McCain is just a liberal turd.

They will kowtow to Mexico City, that’s all I know.... I would imagine an envoy from the White House is on his way to Mexico right now, all quiet and hushed like, with an apology and explanation from Bush to his Mexican overlords, and that it will never happen again.

Thank you for posting these pretty girl's photos to remind us just what this is about, may God give their families peace, may their hearts heal.

Know that while Medellin's execution does not bring back the girls, it goes a long way in protecting someone else's daughter and there is honor in that.

You said it very well. I am sure those sweet little girls are going some place lovely and comforting, but I am pretty sure—though it is not up to me to decide—about somebody else going to be Hitler’s dinner guest with the room temperature set on 700 degrees and the worst food imagineable and some pretty horrid dinner guests.

San Francisco is facing some backlash on that policy right now with the loose illegal who gunned down three family members as they were riding in a car. Liberals are finally finding out they can’t feed, house and protect predators without getting attacked themselves.

"In Texas we've not only got the death penalty ...we've got an EXPRESS LANE!"

Not that express... it still took 15 years.

Heh. I like his other line: “In Texas, if you kill someone, we kill you back!” Makes me proud to be a native Texan.

I remember when this first happened. I can’t believe it took this long for justice to be rendered.

Minor correction to the headline:

Texas Executes Mexican Despite Objections in Accordance with State Law

There, that's better.

And Bush tried to stop it. This is the kind of crap that makes me disgusted with him.

Just FYI, San Francisco is charged with sending illegal criminals to San Bernardino County.
