I think a retarded person might best be exampled by the poor guy that Clinton had executed just before the 1992 Election. That was Clinton's way of saying: "I am tough on crime."

If I recall correctly, the inmate was quated as saying, "leave the pie and I will eat the rest when I get back," as he was led off to the executioner's table.

Yeah. I'd say that guy wasn't all there. But I still say there will be an explosion - with the help of liberal psychiatrists - of retarded people as a result of this ruling.

Agreed. My point is this: is the IQ of 70 the only determining factor here? Certainly IQ tests can be faked. If so, then is some phsyrink going to be the judge of whether or not the person is faking and actually has an IQ of 100?

Like it matters whether the worthless b*st*rd was all there or not.
