He is trying to set up a legal case. He wants the ACLU to declare that the Supermax system is "cruel and unusual."
Prepare for a decade of legal wrangling.

Olympic bomber Eric Rudolph laments in a series of letters to a newspaper that the maximum-security federal prison where he is spending the rest of his life is designed to drive him insane.Oh yeah, that's rich, coming from this goober!

Iraqis Line Up to Put Hussein in the Noose

BAGHDAD, Dec. 8 One of the most coveted jobs in Iraq does not yet exist: the executioner for Saddam Hussein. The death sentence against Mr. Hussein is still under review by an appeals court, but hundreds of people have already started lobbying the prime ministers office for the position.
They have sent messages through cabinet officials and their assistants, and by way of government guards and clerical workers. One candidate, an Iraqi Shiite living in London whose brother was killed by Mr. Hussein, telephoned an aide to the prime minister to say he was prepared to drop everything and fly to Baghdad to execute the former ruler.
One of the hardest tasks will be to determine who gets to be the hangman because so many people want revenge for the loss of their loved ones, said Basam Ridha, an adviser to Prime Minister Nuri Kamal al-Maliki.

I recall a caller to Sean Hanity(?) when Moussaoui was being sentenced, that after awhile they (the inmates) all go insane. You spend 23 hours a day in an 8X12 foot room, you get one hour a day recreation (a bare room with one set of pull up bars, 3 showers a week, all outside contact heavily monitored, a 12 inch window set in the ceiling that point up to the sky. So you pretty much spend your time all alone, no one too talk to. It ain't Club Fed.

""Using solitary confinement, Supermax is designed to inflict as much misery and pain as is constitutionally permissible," he wrote in a letter."
Well. As long as it's 'constitutionally permissible' then we don't have a problem with it.

I bet if we had more prisons like this we would have fewer repeat offenders.

The ACLU won't touch him. They only represent left wing murderers.
To: Valin
It ain't Club Fed.It ain't supposed to be. Rudolph isn't in there for rehabilitation; he's being punished for his murderous actions.

Actually, a Muslim prisoner (a famous one, I can't remember which) recently claimed the exact same stuff.

There are way s to survive being alone like that, but not for the rest of your life with no one to talk to. It would certainly make one go the rest of the way over the edge.
