President Bush has seemingly done all he can over the past year to alienate those of us that supported him throughout these two terms in some very unpopular moves and decisions including his shamnesty stance on illegal immigration and far too cozy relationships with the Mexican leadership that were puzzling in the least and nefarious at worst.And now his support of a world court decision in these capital murder cases against the wishes of Texas and US Court and law not to mention the victims parents (regretful Bush voters as well) is the last straw as far as I'm concerned. Not to mention his refusal thus far to pardon the two border agents Ramos and Campean rotting away in prison for that ridiculous prosecution that congress is trying to choke funding off for their incarceration in order to attempt to right this wrong as well.
He has lost any support he had left going into this final year of his presidency and seemingly could give a s**t judging by his actions.
Bush, Texas at Odds Over Death Case:
My Way News - "WASHINGTON (AP) - To put it bluntly, Texas wants President Bush to get out of the way of the state's plan to execute a Mexican for the brutal killing of two teenage girls. Bush, who presided over 152 executions as governor of Texas, wants to halt the execution of Jose Ernesto Medellin in what has become a confusing test of presidential power that the Supreme Court, which hears the case this week, ultimately will sort out.
The president wants to enforce a decision by the International Court of Justice that found the convictions of Medellin and 50 other Mexican-born prisoners violated their rights to legal help as outlined in the 1963 Vienna Convention. That is the same court Bush has since said he plans to ignore if it makes similar decisions affecting state criminal laws." continued
