The most recent mocking I have seen from a President was when he rubbed your nose in a pile of shit as he waved his finger at you saying "I never had sex with that woman..."

LMAO at you.

You have it backward, Clinton was for executing the mentally retarded.

To make his point, he flew home to Arkansas mid-campaign to watch the execution of Rickey Ray Rector, a 40-year-old black man convicted of killing a black police officer. After shooting the cop, Rector shot himself in the head and damaged his brain.

Though courts decided Rector was mentally competent to be put to death by lethal injection, evidence suggests otherwise. Rector's prison guards called him "the Chickman" because he thought the guards were throwing alligators and chickens into his cell. He would grip the bars and jump up and down like an ape. On the night of his execution, Rector saved the slice of pecan pie to be eaten before bedtime, not realizing his death would come first. He also told his attorney that he would like to vote for Clinton in the fall.

TP, You seem to overlook the fact that Bush was not Governor when Ms. Tucker was convicted, and given the death penalty for her heinous crime. As far as I heard, all of her appeals had been used, and denied by the courts, and Ann Richards refused to intervene. You can't put that one at Bush's doorstep.

With the new decree, at least you don't have to worry about ever being executed.
