Bin Laden can still inspire more terror while he is alive...If he doesn't qualify for Bush's Death Penalty then I don't know who does...(and I normally am not a supporter of the death penalty). Yet, Bin Laden has been tied to the deaths of thousands of Americans...It would be tough for the courts to even comprehend what 'an acceptable' penalty would be.

Why spend our tax dollars keeping Bin Laden alive? He has taken too many American lives and IMO must be executed...Just my views.

Regards,

Scott

re: prison food...

In general, I've always thought that U.S. Prisons should hire french pastry chefs (using lots and lots of subsidized butter and sugar) and cooks that deep fry EVERYTHING. I want it So that you could tell how long someone was in prison by how big they got, and I don't want it to be muscle. It always bothered me that people in prison are lifting weights getting bigger and stronger while in prison (better to prey upon people when they get out of prison). I'd rather they get fat, pasty, and incapable of running from the police.

This way if Mr. OBL were actually put in prison, and anyone were to interview him there (years later), they'd find some 550 lb, moon faced guy staring back at them telling them how hard prison life is.

A better punishment for BinLaden: - capture him, take him to Sweden, perform a sex-change operation, and release HER back into Afghanistan. eom
