Societal Schizophrenia - Not the Clinical Kind Part II

President Obama adds to the definition of societal schizophrenia, today, with this latest news. In Texas, a convicted murder/rapist, on death row was denied a Supreme Court review of his case, which finally exhausted his 16 yrs. of appeals and free legal counsel.  So the execution took place yesterday, July 7th, 2011, because Texas still has the death penalty. But, President Obama and the United Nations, had appealed to reduce the death penalty sentence to life in prison, along with the cooperation of most of the major media. 

Now, the schizophrenia once again comes to mind. While President Obama gave the order to "take out" Osama Bin Laden, with no trial, no jury and certainly no appeals, he appealed for clemency in the case of a murder/rapist, who raped and brutally murdered a 16 yr. old girl. So where is the consistency here, in President Obama's judgments?

The more glaring schizophrenic double standard to all this is, that President Obama is the most pro-abortion president ever; with a long record of supporting abortion, even before his presidency. He voted against the Partial-Birth abortion Ban and BIAPA (Born Alive Infant Protection Act), as an Illinois Senator, even before his elevation to the White House. His ruthless lack of mercy toward the innocent unborn is in stark contrast to his benevolent appeal on behalf of a murderous monster on death row.

So, now, yesterday, on Michael Savage's radio-talk show, he took calls only from people opposed to the death penalty, in order to poll their reasoning. The question presented to his audience was, why are you opposed to the death penalty. Though all responses varied, the main consensus was still, nevertheless, opposition to the death penalty. Michael Savage then presented the issue of Osama Bin Laden to his anti-death penalty audience. Here the answers deviated somewhat from the audience's expressed opposition to the death penalty, in that many felt the killing of Osama Bin Laden was justified. With typical societal schizophrenic double standard reasoning, the audience was unable to explain this.  Duh!  How do we explain such disparity in judgment?

To think, that our president condones a life sentence for a brutal murder/rapist, while at the same time, he uses the full power of the presidency to condone the death penalty of millions of "innocent" unborn children; this severe double standard certainly borders on schizophrenic reasoning, with no consistent logical reason.

A postscript to this story ... The mother of the 16 yr. old girl, who was brutally and viciously raped and murdered, declined to comment on President Obama's attempt to intervene on behalf of her daughter's murderer, and simply said, "now at last my daughter has justice".
