Bishop put to death | clarionledger.com | The Clarion-Ledger
PARCHMAN — Before he died Wednesday evening, death row inmate Dale Leo Bishop apologized to his victim’s family, thanked America and urged people to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama.
“For those who oppose the death penalty and want to see it end, our best bet is to vote for Barack Obama because his supporters have been working behind the scenes to end this practice,” Bishop said.
Why do I doubt that the Obama campaign will be trumpeting this latest endorsement of his candidacy?
And…”working behind the scenes?”

That scumbag committed the murder about a mile from where I live. When they executed him last night, it probably cut Obama’s support in my precinct by half.
