I'm so fucking sick of Repugnicans killing in my name. That's the body of Stanley "Tookie" Williams, whom Repugnican California Gov. Ahhhnuld Schwarzenegger killed when he refused to grant him clemency a week ago today. (Williams' son Travon and other relatives are pictured above at Williams' casket today in Los Angeles.) It's bizarre to see the body of the man that my state tax dollars helped to kill. (That's another thing that I'm really fucking sick of: Repugnicans using my tax dollars to kill people, especially people who aren't Anglo.)

I'm showing you the body because the Repugnicans never want you to see the bodies of their victims, including the bodies of our troops, whom they claim to wuv so fucking much that they sent them on a bogus mission in Iraq for Dick Cheney's Halliburton's war profits.

Guv Schwarzenegger today cut his ties with his Austrian hometown of Graz before the people of Graz could cut their ties with him, which they were going to do because Schwarzenegger killed Williams, and people all over the world, including Schwarzenegger's own native Austria -- birthplace of Adolf Hitler, for fuck's sake -- increasingly are opposing the death penalty.*

The United States, once a leader in the world, is now last to join the rest of the globe in such important matters as abolishing the death penalty, granting same-sex marriage rights and reversing global warming.

Thank the Repugnicans for making the once-proud United States of America the laughingstock of the world.

*Here's a cheery statistic: 97 percent of the world's executions take place in China, Vietnam, Iran and the United States.

Now he's making sense: Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (whom I still think is kinda cute, for an Iranian president, anyway, and who, I suspect, just needs some serious lovin') has banned Western music from Iran's state-owned radio and television stations, which presumably means that the Iranian people won't be subjected to the likes of no-talent ho's Britney Spears and Ashlee Simpson. Clearly, this is a man who cares deeply about his people.
