I bet you’re asking yourself “Why the hell is the World Court ruling on U.S. executions, what business is it of theirs and why should we care?” Don’t worry, I asked the same question when I read the headline.

Seems the World Court, which is a department of the United Nations, will be deciding whether or not the U.S. is defying a 2004 International Court of Justice order to review 51 cases of Mexicans sentenced to death by States.

Of course this all got started when Mexico appealed to block the executions. You have Mexicans killing Mexicans in an all out war on the border cities, your economy is so crappy you actually encourage your citizens to come here to work and send money back, your government is so corrupt it would make Chicago politics look like child’s play and you’re worried about 51 murderers who came here to kill and rape U.S. Citizens?

Mexico should have kept those thugs home if they cared so much about them.

Bottom line is folks, Mexico is afraid these executions will slow down the amount of illegal immigrants coming here. Geez, we could only hope!

But what is even stranger, the U.S. Attorney General and Condoleezza Rice have written Governor Perry and asked him to review the cases of Mexicans on the Texas Death Row.

It would take me every bit of two seconds to review their cases, how about you?

But Perry has refused and the U.S. Supreme Court has said the U.S. Government has no authority to make the states abide by their wishes in these types of cases. Good for them!

As for now, we’ll just wait and see what happens. Even if the World Courtrules against the U.S., there is nothing they can do to enforce any rulings, just like there is nothing the Prez can do to force states to follow a stupid international court of justice ruling!
