My actual point was that a bunch of spoiled leftist brats is trying like hell to do more damage to Bush because they have nothing else in their intellectual quiver. I'm curious where Buck found that link.

Then there's this from Buck's linked article:

^Jones was 60 years old when he was executed on December 7, 2000 - the last man put to death by then-Gov. Bush. The Observer and three innocence groups recently obtained the hair after a three-year court battle and submitted it for mitochondrial DNA testing.^

^That technology didn't exist when Jones was convicted in 1990. But the DNA test had been developed by 2000, when Jones' execution date was nearing. He requested a stay of execution from two Texas courts and from the governor's office in order to test the hair evidence and prove his innocence. His requests were all denied.^

^Documents show that attorneys in the governor's office failed to inform Bush that DNA evidence might exonerate Jones. Bush, a proponent of DNA testing in death penalty cases, had previously halted another execution so that key DNA evidence could be examined. Without knowing that Jones wanted DNA testing, Bush let the execution go forward.^

^Had the DNA tests been conducted before his execution, Jones might still be alive today. Scheck says these results, had they been obtained 10 years ago, probably would have led judges to throw out Jones' conviction and grant him a new trial.^

^"I'm convinced that [Bush] would have granted this reprieve had he known about it," Scheck told the Observer on Thursday. "I find it just astonishing that he wasn't told. That's a pretty serious breakdown in the criminal justice system."^
