This photo of Ron Paul and Rick Perry was snapped during a break in the debate last night (some Ron Paul fans think Perry assaulted him), so how about a caption contest?

It refers to the question in the debate about the Texas executions.
WILLIAMS: Governor Perry, a question about Texas. Your state has executed 234 death row inmates, more than any other governor in modern times. Have you…
(APPLAUSE)
Have you struggled to sleep at night with the idea that any one of those might have been innocent?
PERRY: No, sir. I’ve never struggled with that at all. The state of Texas has a very thoughtful, a very clear process in place of which — when someone commits the most heinous of crimes against our citizens, they get a fair hearing, they go through an appellate process, they go up to the Supreme Court of the United States, if that’s required.
But in the state of Texas, if you come into our state and you kill one of our children, you kill a police officer, you’re involved with another crime and you kill one of our citizens, you will face the ultimate justice in the state of Texas, and that is, you will be executed.
WILLIAMS: What do you make of…
(APPLAUSE)
What do you make of that dynamic that just happened here, the mention of the execution of 234 people drew applause?
PERRY: I think Americans understand justice. I think Americans are clearly, in the vast majority of — of cases, supportive of capital punishment. When you have committed heinous crimes against our citizens — and it’s a state-by-state issue, but in the state of Texas, our citizens have made that decision, and they made it clear, and they don’t want you to commit those crimes against our citizens. And if you do, you will face the ultimate justice.

Hello again, tom:
Ron's response would be, "234 just cost you the presidency, Governor".
While killing gets applause at Republican gatherings, it's really NOT popular among the humans.

Many people call it justice.Hello again, tom:
Here's the deal... If you looked at it WITH blinders on, and didn't wish to look further, you COULD call it justice... But, if you REALLY looked at it, like a HUMAN would, you'd see that the process is rife with politics, discrimination, and just plain lying and cheating.
That AIN'T justice in ANYBODY'S eyes... As the campaign proceeds, I'm sure others will be mentioning some of the most EGREGIOUS killings the governor participated in. I'm thinking particularly of a father who was WRONGFULLY executed for setting a fire that killed his kids... He was convicted on JUNK SCIENCE! In order to NOT get found out, Perry FIRED the board looking into it, and KILLED the guy anyway. He was INNOCENT!
That's the kind of guy Rick Perry is... Cover your a$$ INSTEAD of doing the right thing...

Its not justice when the guy is innocent and you replace the whole board with guys who won't even look at the new evidence. The other part of that story is that many others have been found innocent, and freed after spending 18, 20, almost 30 years in jail.
That's not justice, either. That's a cover up, and don't worry, those small hidden facts will bite the tough talking Texan in the butt.

From another site:
List of exonerated death row inmates:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_exonerated_death_row_inmates#United_States
There is no way to tell how many of the over 1,000 people executed since 1976 may also have been innocent. Courts do not generally entertain claims of innocence when the defendant is dead. Defense attorneys move on to other cases where clients' lives can still be saved. Some cases with strong evidence of innocence include:
Carlos DeLuna Texas Conviction: 1983, Executed: 1989
Ruben Cantu Texas Convicted: 1985, Executed: 1993
Larry Griffin Missouri Conviction: 1981, Executed: 1995
Joseph O'Dell Virginia Conviction: 1986, Executed: 1997
David Spence Texas Conviction: 1984, Executed: 1997
Leo Jones Florida Convicted: 1981, Executed: 1998
Gary Graham Texas Convicted: 1981, Executed: 2000,
Claude Jones Texas Convicted 1989, Executed 2000
Cameron Willingham Texas Convicted: 1992, Executed: 2004
