I find it unsurprizing that I could not find Governor
Schwarzenegger's six page statement anywhere in the
press. Here it is at the State of California web site.

*****************************

The governor's decision was met without opposition from
Democratic Party leadership in California. Jesse Idiot
Jackson, Democratic extortionist was the one vocal critic.
Politicians maintained a deathly silence, showing that the
governor's decision was not only bi-partisan but overwhelmingly
supported by the populace.

The Gubernator noted that Williams dedicated his 1998 memoir,
Life in Prison, to "Nelson Mandela, Angela Davis, Malcolm X,
Assata Shakur, Geronimo Ji Jaga Pratt, Ramona Africa, John
Africa, Leonard Peltier, Dhoruba Al-Mujahid, George Jackson,
Mumia Abu-Jamal, and the countless other men, women and
youths who have to endure the hellish oppression of living behind
bars."

[Makes you wonder if he felt any compassion for people he had
killed.]

In his statement rejecting clemency, Schwarzenegger made
it a condition that the prisoner admit guilt: "Stanley Williams
insists he is innocent, and that he will not and should not apologize
or otherwise atone for the murders of the four victims in this case...
Without an apology and atonement for these senseless and brutal
killings there can be no redemption."

Schwarzenegger singled out the mention of George Jackson,
the Black Panther and prison activist killed by prison guards in
1971, declaring, "the inclusion of George Jackson on this list
defies reason and is a significant indicator that Williams is not
reformed and that he still sees violence and lawlessness as a
legitimate means to address societal problems."
