Oh, Tookie, C'mon People

Of course Tookie or his people running his website still have not responded to my emails, even Barbara Boxer got back to me, even if it was just to blow me off.

Here is some news from today.

SAN QUENTIN, Calif. With the execution date for Stanley Tookie Williams getting closer, the condemned killer is insisting he's a changed man.

As supporters rally outside the prison to spare his life, Williams insists he's not the same man who killed four people during robberies in 1979. He claims he has redeemed himself through a dozen years of good deeds, including writing books encouraging kids to stay out of gangs. Williams has also been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. But despite his efforts, plenty of others remain skeptical. Crime victims and prison officials say Williams is a self-serving charlatan who refuses to take responsibility for his crimes. They also say he's benefiting from a well-meaning, but misguided campaign to clean up his image. Williams is scheduled to be executed by lethal injection December 13th. Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has scheduled a private clemency hearing in his office for December Eighth.

Hmm, the people that are around him everyday call him a self-serving charlatan, that is benefiting from a well-meaning, but misguided campaign to clean up his image.

Actually, I have to correct the article, Tookie still maintains his innocence over the murders he was convicted of, but that is not my point.

The biggest problem I have is that Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has agreed to a clemency hearing.

Even when appeal after appeal has resulted in guilty verdicts.

First off, he has no legal obligation to do so, but because he agreed to the hearing, the pro-Tookie, pro-murder people are going to spin it as 'See, even Arnold wants to look into this travesty of justice'.

Arnold should have just stayed out of the whole thing.

But his Liberal wife runs the show at home, and his politics.

That was evident when she wouldn't go on record and support her husband in his special election.

Now if you are a 13 year old girl, you are still not going to be able to walk into a tattoo parlor to get a little rose tattooed on your shoulder without your parents consent, but an abortion is totally acceptable.

Higher taxes are in our fu2r, because Californian's refuse to allow Arnold to cut spending.

It's weird living in California, sometimes I think I'm living in the most backward place on the planet.

And the Hollywood Elites make fun of the people that don't live here, saying they are hicks, and red-necks, and are so unenlightened.

Maybe they are, but we should be ashamed to have one of the biggest economies on the planet, and we are on the verge of being bankrupt.

I truly think that California is Un-Governable.

Just watch, Tookie will be given clemency, and then the cry will be to set him free, we will be bankrupt in the next few years, and of course, the laughing stalk of the entire country.

Maybe then we will elect Warren Beatty, Johnny Depp, and Sean Penn to run the state all the way into the ground.
