Don't forget Karla Faye Tucker! If they say it doesn't matter what you do
Edited on Mon Sep-06-04 07:52 PM by Pirate Smile
before you are born again, just remember Karla being mocked by Shrub for begging for her life.

She killed someone in a drug haze and became born again while on death row.

Shrub mocked her begging for her life during an interview with Tucker Carlson for Talk Magazine and, of course, he ignored her pleas and she was executed.

"making fun of Karla Faye Tucker's death penalty appeals, mimicking her saying, "Don't kill me!"

1. yes, this really needs to be gotten out there. "please don't kill me"
Especially, as you said, since he did this AFTER he was supposedly "saved".

What kind of an asshole mocks a condemned woman like this??

5. And, like I said in another thread,let's get the Trifecta "joke" out there
too. He said it 12 or 13 times. and at least one of those was caught on audio, if not video.

JOKING about the deaths of thousands of Americans, and admitting that it was a good thing for him.

Again, an infuckincredibly assholish thing to do. Over, and over, and over again.

6. Wasn't this AFTER Dubya was himself "born again"?
He was governor of Texas at the time, and I thought he was "born again" before that. If so, what does this say of his religious conviction? Hmph!

7. Besides, if I remember correctly,
Karla Faye NEVER begged Smirk for her life. I saw her in an interview, and she said she was prepared to die for what she had done. HE made this pleading up for a better JOKE!
The man is sooooo sick. It just occurred to me that he killed more people this year than Karla Faye ever did.

8. YES! This is the PERFECT argument!
If she wasn't "born again" ENOUGH for the chimp....he's not to be forgiven for his past indiscretions, either. He must be held to the standards he used for her.

9. You guys have really hit on something here! Put it all together. Karla
Faye, hitting the trifecta, acting like Joe Hardass before the attack on Iraq (what did he say, he pumped his fist and said something like feels fucking good or whatever). Anyway, time to put all this together, and start a e-mail campaign.

13. Conversely, he extended executive clemency to Henry Lee Lucas.
To be fair, it's entirely possible that Lucas was not guilty of the crime he received the death sentence for.

But why, of all the people Bush could have extended clemency to - Karla Faye Tucker in particular - did he choose Henry Lee Lucas, the only person on Death Row Bush ever extended executive clemency to?

Read a bit about Henry Lee Lucas here:
