I always notice that the rabid death-penalty opponents are pretty darn quite when a guy like this or a McViegh is up for termination.

But they really pile it on when dealing with condemned inmates with "poster-child" attributes. If they weren't such hypocrites they would stand as strongly for all condemned inmates...after all it's the principle of the thing, right? No shades of gray about right and wrong or the seriousness of the crime. Shouldn't really matter if you scare off a few contributor$.
