Letters Threaten (FL) Gov. Bush, Others Over Execution

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Florida authorities were investigating threatening letters and bullets sent to officials over the planned execution of a man who killed two people at an abortion clinic.

At least one of the letters also threatened Gov. Jeb Bush (search), a source familiar with the letter told The Associated Press. Bush, who signed a death warrant for Hill, has not received a death-threat letter.

A spokeswoman for Bush said Wednesday the governor has no plans to stop the execution. Crist also said he would not be deterred by the threat.

1. Such is the pickle one finds oneself in when supporting civil rights
before birth but not after.

2. Creepy.
But I don't have any illusion that this will serve as a light bulb experience for moderate Republicans to illuminate who they have chosen for political bedfellows.

3. Get Bush
Well I don't support assasination--there would be no tears--if only DeLay was standing next to him!

4. Of course, the letters and bullets are sent in the name of Jesus
these people are absolutely nuts.
