If he does, the idiot's political career is over.
Maybe this is what he was waiting for -- a good excuse not to grant clemency.
Anyone know what the official odds are on the Gov granting clemency? I would guess 1 in 10.
What is taking Arnold so long.
It is like Ted Kennedy is pushing his strings.
What a disgrace this RinoArnold is with his new chief of staff, the rino judge and now is interest in tookie.
He should have heard the cases reviewed it and decided. You would think Tookie was the victim the way Schwarzrinoator is treating this.
He wont. He is smart to wait until the very last minute. Keep passions in check.
> Arnold better not dare stick his fat head in the middle of this.
Amen. Thankfully, Arnold need do nothing at all. He need only shrug, and watch. Greater judicial minds than his have fronted up, and generously offered to take the decision out of his hands.
If he has any political nous at all, he will see this as a Gift from the gods and act accordingly. My gut tells me that the Governator is astute: he will never die in the ditch for filthy stinking trash like Tookie. Why should he?
"Tookie, the hangman awaits... hee hee hee!"
I do not normally take pleasure in the death of the wicked, as the Bible exhorts us. For this slimeball I am deliberately making an exception.
(any Freepers in Auckland: first round's on me on the day Tookie gasps his last. Our Nation, and our children, need jokers like the Crips in NZ about as much as we need a dose of the clap.)
Yeah, we'll all write angry e-mails if he does. Let's get real, he never was a real politician to begin with and I don't think he'll care if his "career" as a politician is over.
His Supreme Court has provided Arnold exactly the cover he needs. He should simply leave it at that.
The court found the appeal without merit.
Not Arnold, but his press secty should simply state that the governor felt the court's review was thorough.
