did anyone see lawerence o'donnells (sp) rant on death penalty

[Beer Snob-50]

in short, he said that if we will only protest those executions that we feel are unfair and not address the inequities of the system in general and protest all executions, we will never put to an end those we feel are unfair.

the system is full of errors because humans run the system and are bound to make errors (whether due to bigotry or just how the system runs)

1. Lawerence was spot on.

Kick!

[Turbineguy]

2. It was excellent

It was a good point about the Brewer case. You can't pick and choose. I hadn't really thought about it in those terms. It's all or nothing.

i was upsset with myself before i watched it for not really caring one iota about the tx execution because the guy was an evil man.

7. an aside: i think LO is getting better in his commetary, both in writing & delivery

He was a little more "low key" and slower of speech that KO for those of us used to Keith's rapid-fire delivery..(sometimes it was hard for my brain to keep up with his mouth!).. but LO's quiet intensity is growing on me.
