Committed a brutal murder as a drug addled street criminal. Sentenced to death row, she spent the rest of her life -- I want to say a decade or more -- a Born Again prison minister who helped countless other drug addicts kick like she did, and worked with them on improving their lives.

When her appeals had all been denied, she appealed for clemency from fuck head Shrub. Religious leaders from around the nation supported her plea for mercy. So then this born again phony not only denied her clemency, he made fun of her plea not to kill her.

Fucking evil is GW Bush, not maybe as evil as Cheney, or certainly Trump, but let us say that if I am proved wrong, and there is indeed a Judgement Day, I wouldn't want to be in his cowboy boots!
