WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush on Monday approved the execution of an Army private, the first time in over a half-century that a president has affirmed a death sentence for a member of the U.S. military. With his signature from the Oval Office, Bush said yes to the military's request to execute Ronald A. Gray, the White House confirmed. Gray had had been convicted in connection with a spree of four murders and eight rapes in the Fayetteville, N.C., area over eight months in the late 1980s while stationed at Fort Bragg .



Looks like the Texecutioner's ways die hard.

George Bush ordered the killing of the first woman in Texas since the 1860's
After ignoring calls from religious leaders such as Pat Robertson,
Bush went ahead with the execution on schedule.
In the summer of '99 after announcing his bid for the presidency, Bush openly
mocks Karla's pleas for clemency in an interview he does with Talk magazine.
" `Please,' Bush whimpers, his lips pursed in mock desperation, `don't kill me,' "
The President Mocking The Woman He Put To Death ! ! !
Bush makes fun of Karla Faye Tucker in an interview with CNN's conservative pundit Tucker Carlson for Talk magazine.
" I think it is nothing short of unbelievable that the governor of a major state
running for president thought it was acceptable to mock a woman he decided
to put to death," - Republican Candidate Gary Bauer said of Bush's lewd comments.

I think Bush should spare his life. Then you can rent him the spare room in your house.

I say we keep him around so Obamma can pardon him and let him become a teacher at your local school.

It is not about executing an "ex-soldier", as he gives all military men a bad name.

He is the ultimate scum and needs to fry.

Only four murders and eight rapes? what is he thinking

I'm not even a proponent of the death penalty, but I find it hard to knock any President for authorizing a legal execution in this case.

Of course, I'd prefer that it become illegal and replaced by a life of hard times without parole. (oh, and this may actually save money too)

I guess the real question is: Why has he been kept alive for over 20 years?
