...you're talking about Bush, right? He's not like your normal psychopathic murderer who's going to commit his crimes out of some twisted compulsion; he's a political whore who tested all the boundaries and found no one willing to stand up to him. If he is punished, the next demagogue will think twice before attempting the same crimes.
You know that 'deterrence through punishment' only applies to the nearly million people busted for marijuana possession last year. Those people are now 'saved' -- what would you have us do...approve of their actions and ignore the problem!!!!! OMG!!!
Do you really want to tie the hands of the President by making him second guess whether what they are doing is constitutional or even legal do you...???
