Refusing to commute Tookie’s sentence from execution to life in prison without parole didn’t make Arnold look tough. It made him look like a great big “girlie-man.”

That's just the opposite of what FReepers were saying. Of course, this is Bill, so that's expected.

Allowing a murderer to live is showing compassion. Showing compassion to his victims is being mean spirited and insensitive. Liberal Orwellian Doublespeak 101 at its finest.

Typical leftist Newspeak: socialist is "mainstream" & mainstream is "right-wing"; liberation is "terrorism" & terrorism is "liberation"; Bush is an "idiot" & Kerry is a "genius"; Ah-nold is a "girlie-man" & Tookie is a "role model".
They live in Bizzaro World!
Does Arnold really need to "look" tough, anyway? I doubt he has that kind of insecurity. Unlike the typical leftist, I don't think how one "looks" should drive decisions. Bill demonstrates that he is superficial as well as delusional.
