U.S. Supreme Court rejects John Muhammad’s appeal

The Beltway jihadist John Muhammad will be executed tomorrow, barring any last-minute clemency action by Democrat Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine. Muhammad’s Supreme Court appeal was rejected:
Washington area sniper John Allen Muhammad’s scheduled execution will go forward Tuesday unless Virginia Gov. Timothy M. Kaine intervenes, after the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday rejected the sniper’s final legal appeal.
Muhammad, 48, has exhausted all appeals of his capital murder conviction in the slaying of Dean H. Meyers, 53, at a Prince William County gas station on Oct. 9, 2002. Muhammad’s last chance now rests with Kaine (D).
Gordon Hickey, a spokesman for Kaine, said the governor was aware of the Supreme Court’s decision but had not yet announced his own decision on clemency. The governor can allow the execution to occur as scheduled, delay it or commute Muhammad’s sentence.
Muhammad’s attorneys had argued that the sniper is mentally ill and that he should have been granted a competency hearing before his trial, at which he represented himself briefly. Muhammad has maintained his innocence.
Yes, Muhammad’s lawyers argued that he was “mentally ill.” Been there, done that.
Now, place your bets on his last words:
If his execution goes forward, Muhammad will have a brief opportunity to speak before deadly chemicals are injected into his arms.

Good.
I hope he gets to go to HE!! tomorrow and burns forever. The moon god has no real power and he can only use brainwashed people to do his EVIL bidding.
Don’t think for a minute it hasn’t crossed his mind once or twice.
Well I wish he’d fry, but at least he’ll die.
Innocent? Yeah right. My hairy white a$$ he’s innocent.

Given all the recent spin from the MSM over Ft. Hood and muslim sensitivity, I wouldn’t put it past Kaine to pull the plug for reasons of “continued investigation into motives of minorities” and “hate motives of majorities”. Sounds sick, but would fit well into the mess we’re in.
On a related note, if anyone wishes to help the Ft. Hood families, please consider using Operation Homefront’s Emergency Tragedy Fund for Ft. Hood Families. It is a four-star charity per Charity Navigator and 100% of all donations will go directly to the families.
Do not donate through ISNA!
T.M.I.
Who is claiming he is innocent?
For his eternal well being, I hope his last words are to ask God’s forgiveness and place his trust in Jesus as his Savior. Physical death is once, spiritual death is forever.
I still think there’s an off-chance that Kaine will get a call from the figurehead of his party and offer clemency.
Great interview. I find it infuriating to hear the sob stories for “poor lonely Major Hasan” before the bodies of his victims have even been buried. Thanks for speaking for us. We’re not going to take this. We’re not going to be lectured about jumping to conclusions.
Nidal Hasan, you’re next. Unless Barrack Hussein buddy Obama and General “I Love Known Islamic U.S. Army Terrorists Who Kill Our Own Soldiers” Casey decide you are too valuable to the Army to destroy government property.
Great passion from MM in her appearance on the Beck program!
I think this issue has the potential to reach deeply into the ranks of political centrists and make them question the whole PC culture and the distortions of the MSM. As Obama lamely suggested, I intend “to stay on it.”
Muhammed is almost a sympathetic character who was victimized by the death cult of islam. OK, not really…this POS made his choices and will receive his condign punishment. Still, islam claims both the guilty and the innocent while the world soft pedals its evils in the name of another perversion: political correctness that attempts to give the cult merit and legitimacy it shall never have.
*No PC bovine scatology ever from MM; Need more appearances on TV from the likes of her and Ralph Peters; The truth hurts, but PC kills(i.e. Fort Hood)
*As for JAM, of course he is insane; And?; Let’s hope Kaine gets one thing right before his term expires!
Satan fires up the grill.
ZA is claiming you are both innocent. We laughed…
Um, what? He’s not been executed yet, and the Supreme Court’s decision effectively ended the appeals process. So what the hell is he talking about?
bjc>>The truth hurts, but PC kills(i.e. Fort Hood)
I like that. We should make it a bit of a mantra: The truth hurts, butPC kills.
*If Vegas were laying odds with P-BO or Holder getting involved, put your money on Tiller the Killers’ killer exiting the merry-go-round before JAM!
Excellent. He needs to face his punishment for what he did to those poor people.
And definitely was a terrorist. As is our poor widdle misunderstood psych MD in Texas.
He is.

Here’s the excuse Obama/Holder/Kaine will use:
If Kaine commutes his sentence, it’ll be pretty much the last time he gets to do so. Hooray for term limits.
bjc, Ralph Peters, yes!
Your post caused me to Google his NYP 9/11 op-ed. Damn! I haven’t read anything quite that stirring since Thomas Paine passed.
My favorite line: We’ve dishonored our dead and whitewashed our enemies.

Just how long would these three idiots think reasonable people should wait before executing this worthless animal? It is not like this hasn’t taken 8 years and numerous appeals.
Exactly what do they think they are going to discover dragging this out for 8 or 10 more years? These people make a farce out of our justice system.
I doubt Kaine will offer any clemency. Too many people remember the fear. Besides, I would execute the way they do in the Islamic Middle East…hang him, or find someone with a samurai sword. Many people feel that would be “cruel and unusual” punishment. Cruel to who? The witnesses? Personally, I would prefer the trapdoor or the sword, than watching chemicals slowly flow into my arm.
just kill the sorry a$$ chicken $hit.
I can’t ever imagine having to live with the knowledge of having a family member murdered in such a gruesome fashion for absolutely no reason. I hope they have found some sort of peace.
They should have killed him instantly when no doubt existed about his identity. What a waste.
May almighty God have mercy on his soul.
He should be drowned, and after he flatlines, immediately resuscitated.
Once for each person he killed.
“…the red flags were missed.” or was that ignored?
Excellent performance on Glenn Beck.
I can see why that show just can’t seem to find an audience. Too many facts, too much logic presented with far too much clarity and common sense. Americans prefer the more pleasant alternative of being lied to in a confusing but gentle tone of voice. Like tonight’s alternative universe version on Jim Lehrer’s PBS Newshour.
Now back to contemplating a world of fluffy bunnies and baby duckies. A-a-a-a-a-a-a-h! Much better!
John Paul Stevens, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, two of the 5 that determined with all their scientific knowledge that co2 is a pollutant…and these black robes are deciding what laws are constitutional and which are not?
What would it take to show these judges are senile, besides when they open their mouth’s.
Sleep well,John Allen Muhammad. When you wake, the eternal nightmare begins.
Buh-bye! :wave: DLTDHYITAOTWO!
“too quick to white wash” “see no evil”
Did Michelle just compare Obama to a monkey?
RAAAAACIST!
Of course that’s what Geraldo will say…
No LOVE and concern for the lad? Oh well he had eight more years than his victims. Compared to eternity that will not matter. Bye Bye John Allen Muhammad, say hell-o to your moon god buddies. May Supreme Court Justices John Paul Stevens, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Sonia Sotomayor join you soon.
Yes if John Allen Muhammad accepts Christ all Heaven will rejoice. IF. He murdered-he needs to be put down like the vermin he is.
Hey hey hey – goodbye.
No. I still remember the fear that thousands felt, and the news reports that someone else had been shot. We were scared to go shopping and, especially, to pump gas. I also remember the traffic jams on the highways as police checked “white vans” and anything else they suspected. All people with actions like that are mentally ill, but there is a line drawn as to whether he knows what he did, or not. He knew the consequences, and used Allah as his crutch in rationalizing the murders. I doubt he’ll be forgiven for anything, here on earth or heaven, but I leave judgement to God. I hope Malvo never gets out.
Perhaps he can write childrens’ books and the Hollywood elites can rally round the lad. Or perhaps that is reserved for cop killers, I am not sure. Edward Asner, Mike Farrell, Sharon Glass and such saddle up-a stone cold killer needs you.
No sympathy for the family of Daniel Faulkner, tons for his killer Abu-Jamal.These are sick times in which we live.
Since we’re on a good viscious streak, I wonder if any of the chemicals used are made with pig products? And can we get a female doctor to do the work? Is that brave woman Sgt. available tomorrow night?
Are they going to argue that being a Muslim is a mental illness? Seriously, I would like to see that John Muhammad’s body is embalmed with a pig’s blood/embalming fluid blend – just in time to meet with Allah.
They used to bury moslems with pig parts/blood, in order to get revenge, many years ago. Clerics, though, decided that moslems will still go to “allah” regardless of how they died or were buried, “defiled” by pork. It’s another way that so-called “clerics” mold a religion in order to maintain their power and profits. They sit back, protected, issuing decrees, while the “duped” go out and do their bidding, usually resulting in their deaths.
Any chance we can sneak battery acid in to replace the sedative???
sonofdy’s evil mind at work.
Sprinkle the table with lye??
insert needles into his feet before his last walk?
Transfuse him with pigs blood?
Tie him down at let every gay man in the prison have a go?
Too much???
In order for him to perform a last benefit for society, they should use his ashes to fertilize a field in Iowa growing feed corn.
I can’t believe they are to this point already. Why does it take 20 years for some to be executed and others max out in less than ten?
Well, I’m glad to see this one done in relatively short order.
So what time does the candle light vigil outside the prison start? You know the anti death penalty crowd is going to be there.
There will be 2 vigils outside the prison: pro-death penalty and anti-death penalty. Guess which one will be bigger. Heard there may be some tailgating with pork bbq for dinner!
May I suggest hanging, drawing and quartering???
Just saying..
.
BYE
.
Kaine denied clemency. Buh-bye!
We’ll let you know when to stop.
Might I suggest incorporating flaying into the agenda?
Just sitting down with a few beers and a Pulled Pork sandwich and waiting for the good news.
Hit Damn, Larry King will be live from the execution. Guess I’ll have to figure out which channel is CNN.
Another Jehad loving enemy being sent to find out allah does not exist.
I will drink a glass of wine on Veteran’s Day to some,(not much), justice to this puke with no shape to his due.
One down…..
Gone at 9:11 pm. Now, he faces judgement from a different, higher “court”.
Buh Bye Dickweed. May you suffer for eternity.
The sad part of replacing the electric chair with lethal injection is we don’t get to sing “On Top of Old Smokey” for the lad. Good riddance to bad rubbish.
They say if you cain’t say nothin’ good about the dead, you ain’t oughtn’t to say nothin’
He’s dead.
Good.
Sonofdy: Keep going – the list is really good. How about Shot by Firing Squad (too light) – boiled in oil (too strong), electrocuted (just right for perfect drinkability!!)
