Good for them.
What I find most disturbing is this part:
Earlier, President Bush issued a directive to the state courts to abide by the decision and also asked Texas specifically to review Medellin's case ahead of his planned Aug. 5 execution.
Those steps were "highly unusual," Bellinger said. "It almost never happens that the federal government enters an appearance in state court proceedings."
However, Texas refused, and in March the U.S. Supreme Court ruled by a 6-3 vote that Bush lacked the authority to compel state courts to comply with the judgment from The Hague.
Are there actually 3 Supreme Court justices who think the President has any power over a state supreme court (let along for purposes of following the World Court)? The President has no such power, and those three justices (I can guess 4 possibilities) should be impeached and removed from the bench for simply making things up.
