I think televised executions would appeal too much to the basest instincts of the population of this country. Pandering to the voyeuristic impulses of the people for what will surely be consumed as entertainment degrades us as well as the condemned.

Well, I think they should televise executions. It would show everyone how evil they are…or how evil we are.

And no, I am not 100% against the death penalty.

LOL…Sterling!

Executions on the internet? Sick and wrong—I don’t care who it is they hang. You take a good look at that photo of Hussein as they prep him, that look says it all. To me, that look is just as disturbing as the thought of them kicking the chair out from under him.

Trouble is, TD, a “common sense” party can only function outside of Washington.

No, Bill H, there are morons on both sides of the aisle. I’m all for seeing a common sense party develop.

Bin Laden is not the top priority of the Pentagon in Afghanistan–he’s just public relations BS. I’ll go out on a limb and predict that Osama will ‘die’ of natural causes before 2008.

And unfortunately, I think you’re entirely correct that live televised executions will soon be a reality in the good ole U.S. of A.

Yes because all Republicans are utter morons and Democrats are perfect, angelic creatures with flowing manes, like unicorns.

Nor would I. But I don’t think it would benefit the Republicans enough to overcome their ineptitude.
