Today Is A Day Of Sadness...

I just learned that fellow blogger, Nickie Goomba has passed away. Nickie had without a doubt one of the best blogs out there. Not a day would go by that I would not read his blog.

His humor and great writings will be missed...

God Curse America!

Yesterday, a Jury sentenced Zacarias Moussaoui to life in prison without the possibility of parole. This morning U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema formally Sentenced Moussaoui.

U.S. District Judge Leonie Brinkema got the last word Thursday as she formally handed down a lifetime prison sentence for Zacarias Moussaoui.
"You will die with a whimper," Brinkema told the Al Qaeda conspirator — since he will never be allowed to speak publicly again — as she sentenced him to life in prison without the possibility of parole for his role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

Moussaoui got one last chance to speak publicly Thursday before he is sent to a super-maximum security prison with little to no contact with the outside world. And he used the opportunity to taunt the United States once again, as he has done during various outbursts throughout his trial.

"We will come back one day. You will never get him. God curse America. God save Usama bin Laden. You will never get him," Moussaoui said.
He added: "I destroyed life" ... "maybe one day she (victim's family member) can think how many people the CIA has destroyed their life."

"America, you lost. I won," he said Wednesday, clapping his hands as he was led out of the courtroom.

Reading the jurors' decision outside the Alexandria, Va., courthouse, Edward Adams, the court's public information officer, said the verdict only indicated that the jurors were "not unanimous in favor of a sentence of death."

I can only surmise that there must have been a bleeding heart liberal (very far left, as not to offend some of my friends) that felt the need to allow this worthless individual to continue to live.

President Bush said Wednesday a federal jury that spared the life of al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui did "something that he evidently wasn't willing to do for innocent American citizens."

This guy should have been sentenced to death with the execution coming immediately. It would have been one thing if he had shown some remorse or ~~asked~~ begged for forgiveness and of course his life. But he did not. He continued to taunt the judge and jurors and make a mockery of our justice system.

This was a poor decision by the jury. I can only hope this guy is put in general population and let the boys in the yard "take care of business...
