The Obama administration is taking the unusual step of asking the U.S. Supreme Court to stop Texas from executing a Mexican citizen who was convicted and sentenced to die for the rape and murder of a 16-year-old girl.
The administration is asking the court to delay the July 7 execution of Humberto Leal, 38, for as long as six months to give Congress time to consider legislation that would directly affect Leal's case.

What is wrong with this bunch in power?
Hey Texans, you paying attention? Get on the horn to the governor and tell him to let the execution go forward!
NEXT HEADLINE: “Texas to White House: Kiss My Grits!”
Kill his murdering ass and ship the corpse to the Mexican embassy freight collect.
I'm there now. All I see is the communists have taken over the entire Administration and has elected King Obama as dictator. There is a slight chance the House can or will do anything to slow down the empire change but more hope on 2012. King Obama army is huge since he has bought at least l/3 of the voters and the rest are so ignorant we might have a real hard time.
Like this morning?
Hey, Obama and Holder,how many fingers am I sticking up?
(Hint: its more than none and less than two.)
Right on. Do it now.
THIS IS OLD NEWS. This is a repeat article.
This is the action taken last week, and has already been responded to at the court by the Texas AG’s office.
P-ss on his victim, that’s what this is really about, p-ss on his victim, the shite heads rule.
I don't recognize it now.
Every day, I feel like I'm in the Twilight Zone.
Actually Perry can’t do anything on his own.but if he could he would move the execution up. The faster we get rid of the murdering pos illegal the better the world will be
Notice NO WHERE in any reports does it say the scum told the police he was a mexican national.
So notice that today 0dumbo doesn’t want police to ask anyone if they are here legally
but in 1994 how would the police know he was not a citizen if he didn’t tell them?
What he did and admitted to is so horrendous I think it is a crime he has lived for 17 more years
And Texas, being Texas, will say NO and execute the scum anyway.
Good for Texas.
Heh! Has anyone seen any leftists losers screaming, “Separation of government branches,” or, “States rights,” yet.
Oh, wait.
Those people believe that the three branches of government are the President, the House, and the Senate (Chuck U Schumer).
I cannot imagine what the parents/family of the victim must be going through right now. They live through the horrible death of their child, the court case where they know what torment/torture/fear/agony she endured before taking her last breath and now the government trying to stop justice for being served for their girl. Based on what? Because he was illegal and couldn’t understand the language or what rights he had? He seemed to understand that smashing a huge block of concrete on a girl’s head would kill her. This is infuriating to me!
Is there anyone in this Administration who has ever read the Constitution? Anyone? What part of 'ex post facto' do they not get?
You would think Hispanic Americans would be up in arms over this.
The poor kid this piece of crap raped and murdered was Hispanic.
