Now that I have your attention, the 'Cruel and Unusual' punishment
had nothing to do with the ACLU's intent.  If he would be put to death
and it felt like an orgasim the ACLU would have found some reason to 
object.  Remember, that was simply an issue they used to open an appeal.
They could have used any number of reasons like, capital punishment is 
unconstitutional, period etc.  I guess it is a bit like Hand Gun Control, Inc's
intent to do away with the 2nd amendment.  They look for ways or issues
to build public support to change one or two laws removing citizens 
rights then eventually they can sway congress to overturn our RKBA.

Anyway, I am glad the ACLU made the attempt.  It has revealed the true
colors of the organization.  Not that this should really surprizes anyone.
However, it may begin to get supporters to question their allegance to these
wackos!
