U.S. Quits Pact Used in Capital Cases
Foes of Death Penalty Cite Access to Envoys

The Bush administration has decided to pull out of an

international

agreement that opponents of the death penalty have used to fight

the

sentences of foreigners on death row in the United States,

officials said

yesterday.

In a two-paragraph letter dated March 7, Secretary of State

Condoleezza

Rice informed U.N. Secretary General Kofi Annan that the United

States

"hereby withdraws" from the Optional Protocol to the Vienna

Convention on

Consular Relations. The United States proposed the protocol in

1963 and

ratified it -- along with the rest of the Vienna Convention -- in

1969.

Did *anything* good come out of the 60's?

Oh, come on. Surely you can't be THAT narrow minded.....can you?

The United States *proposed* the protocol in 1963 and
ratified it -- along with the rest of the Vienna Convention -- in
1969.

Let's see 1969 -- Wasn't their a *REPUBLICAN* in the White House?

Nixon was a smart Republican, unlike the current Republican.

Don't forget Hew was *NOT* a crook either.
