Finally. I’ll have a beer in Governor Perry’s honor. Not something I’ve had occasion to do before, frankly. But he stood firm.
The world is a safer place.
They should deport him now...
Excellent. Now ship his carcass back to Mexico, care of the international court.

It is simple really, if you don’t want to be executed, don’t kill people. So simple a caveman could figure it out.
Not until a dozen paragraphs into the story are the names and ages of the victims stated. We know this convict’s middle name before we hear more about the “two girls” whom he raped and murdered. That tells you where CNN’s heart is.

REMEMBER THE ALAMO!

Huntsville. El estado de Texas ejecutó esta noche al reo mexicano José Ernesto Medellín, en desafío a la orden de la Corte Internacional de Justicia (CIJ) y de apelaciones de la administración del presidente George W. Bush.
Medellín, cuyas últimas palabras fueron para pedir perdón a los familiares de las dos jóvenes en cuyo asesinato participó, fue declarado muerto a las 21:57 horas, tiempo local (03:57 GMT del jueves).
"Espero que esto sea la recapitulación que buscan. Nunca odien a alguien por lo que haga. Nunca alberguen odio", pidió el mexicano.
Enseguida, Medellín se dirigió a su amiga Sandra Crisp y le repitió: "Te amo, te amo".
Tranquilo, el reo mexicano, de 33 años, volteó su rostro hacia el guardia de la prisión de máxima seguridad en esta localidad de Texas y le dijo las que serían sus últimas dos palabras: "Es hora".
La Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos rechazó este martes la última apelación del mexicano, con lo que allanó el camino a su ejecución, a pesar del pedido de la Corte Internacional de Justicia de detenerla.
"La solicitud de detener la ejecución de la sentencia de muerte... es rechazada", dictaminó la Corte Suprema.
Hell, just take him down to the fence and toss him over.
Babelfish’s attempt at translation:
The state of Texas tonight executed to the Mexican criminal Jose Ernesto Medellín, in challenge at your service of the Court the International of Justicia (CIJ) and appeals of the administration of president George W. Bush.
Medellín, whose last words went for asking pardon the relatives of the two young people in whose murder it participated, was declared dead to the 21:57 hours, local time (03: 57 GMT of Thursday).
“I hope that this is the summary that they look for. They never hate to somebody reason why it does. They never lodge odio” , the Mexican asked.
Immediately, Medellín went to its friend Sandra Crisp and it repeated to him: “ I love you, you amo”.
Calm, the Mexican criminal, of 33 years, turned around his face towards the guard of the prison of maximum security in this locality of Texas and he said those to him that would be their last two words: “ He is hora”.
The Supreme Court of the United States rejected east Tuesday the last appeal of Mexican, and so it smoothed the way to his execution, in spite of the order of the Court International of Justice to stop it. “
The request to stop the execution of the death sentence is rechazada” , it considered the Supreme Court.
