I meant to say that Ginsburg, Breyer & Souter were the dissenters.

Chief Justice Roberts wrote the Opinion of the Court.

An international court ruled in 2004 that the convictions of Medellin and 50 other Mexicans on death row around the United States violated the 1963 Vienna Convention

This vicious rape and murder of 2 American teenagers did not happen “internationally”

It happened right here in our country...

The perps were illegal aliens who should never have been here in the first place...

Was this the case that was delaying executions of death row inmates?

The president may not "establish binding rules of decision that pre-empt contrary state law," Roberts said.

That's worth framing.

I think Fox got some of their facts wrong. The prisoner was not PREVENTED from contacting his embassy. He never ASKED to contact the embassy. The embassy issue did not come up until the appeals.

Wow. Good Bush put Roberts on the court. This is an important decision.

Sorry Bush, you lose this one.

Ginsburg, Breyer, Souter, the Three Amigos.

I couldn’t help thinking of this when I saw the name:

“The Medellín Cartel was an organized network of drug smugglers (drug cartel) originating in the city of Medellín in Colombia and operating through the 1970s and 1980s. It was built and run by Pablo Escobar. At its height, it was bringing in as much as $60 million per month, and was estimated by some to be worth as much as $28 billion in total. Other noted figures involved in, or connected with the cartel include the Ochoa family José Gonzalo Rodríguez Gacha, Max Mermelstein, Jon Roberts, Mickey Munday, and Carlos Lehder.”

I’m sure it’s not related.

From the Opinion of the Court:

In sum, while treaties “may comprise international commitments . . . they are not domestic law unless Congress has either enacted implementing statutes or the treaty itself conveys an intention that it be ‘self-executing’ and is ratified on these terms.”

Having Kennedy as the key swing vote is proving to be much better when it was both Kennedy and O’Connor. Sandra swung the court much further to the left than Kennedy.

It’s a sad day when our President is aligned with leftists Ginsburg-Breyer-Souter and even Justice Stevens votes with the majority. Let’s execute the scumbag.

Lest we forget what Jose Medellin is guilty of:

President Bush when Governor pulled the switch on plenty of Hispanic prisoners but once he became President he was obligated by “International Law” written years ago to make sure foreign nationals got their visitors. This is actually a good thing the lawsuit was between Feds and State because it sets undeniable precedence.

If the ruling had gone against Texas and I were the governor, the Texas Rangers would have rounded up as many illegals as possible; i.e., thousands, and forced them into the front door of the Mexican consulate. I would have demanded full consular paperwork on each individual and Mexico provides transportation to the border.

The usual suspects...who should be removed from the court.

A triumph for the rule of law, justice, and the advance of western civilization.
