arghhhhhhhhhh....why the delay? Because he's an illegal?
Read the article.
Actually, that's not exactly right but not that far off.
His last minute appeals are being financed by the Mexican government. It doesn't have anything directly to do with his immigration status, but the fact that he's a Mexican citizen, and that gentle and peaceful nation opposes capital punishment.
Does anyone REALLY think that if Racindez Ramirez whatever his name is, was a pale white skinned redneck from Texas or Arkansas, who had murdered 15 black or hispanic people, and was a U.S. Citizen and former military member, that this would be going on so long? Even the Anti-Death penalty crowd would be frothing at the mouth for his execution and they'd want the chair to be brought back to make it more painful. This has everything to do with the fact that he's not white, he's illegal, and the libs just can't let this execution happen no matter how much he's earned it.
