Well, here's a case in point. Moussaoui admitted that he was the 19th hijacker, and there was ample proof that he was, yet he will spend the rest of his days watching Oprah, eating at taxpayers' expense, and getting fresh air and exercise.

Imagine. This cretin was willing to assist in the murders of 3000 Americans, and announced that he was, yet he was spared the death penalty.

Some believe that the desolation of life in prison is a greater punishment than death. Perhaps it is. But my principal reason for supporting the death penalty is to prevent a heinous criminal from killing or committing heinous acts again, whether against prison personnel or in the event he were to escape.

Guys like Dahmer, and Geoghan (a serial killer and a clerical sexual abuser) were dealt prison justice. Unless Moussaoui is put in solitary confinement at Super-Max in Colorado, he will likely experience the same.

Isn't America a great country? Self-confessed members of Al Qaeda can hang out here and spend their time plotting to kill as many of us as possible, and in return we get the privilege of paying to feed and house them for the rest of their lives.

If this case doesn't prove that this notion that we hand out death sentences like lollipops is nothing but a bunch of liberal garbage, then I really don't know what does.

Well, my guess is that Moussaoui won't exactly be having a pleasant time if he is put into general population in an American prison...

Bingo!
