Texas Executes 400th Person

Three lullabies in an ancient tongue
.....and all that since only 1982! No other state even comes close! Just another proud achievement by the honorable citizens of the Lone Star State! And how appropriate that it was a person of the African-American persuasion! I'm pretty sure we blow everyone else away when it comes to putting blacks and hispanics to death.

Congratulations, Texas! You've earned the distinction as the execution capital of the "civilized" world!

Any bets how long it takes us to get to 500? The over/under at the sports book at Mandalay Bay is June of 2011. I'm going for the under....especially as long as the republicans are in the governor's mansion. Keep signing those warrants, Mr. Perry! There are 379 more inmates on death row and you've only got another year and a half in office so keep that pen handy!
