Notice who gets the headline in the AP article:
Obama disagrees with high court on child rape case, by SaraKuglar – AP
“I have said repeatedly that I think that the death penalty should be applied in very narrow circumstances for the most egregious of crimes,” Obama said at a news conference. “I think that the rape of a small child, 6 or 8 years old, is a heinous crime and if a state makes a decision that under narrow, limited, well-defined circumstances the death penalty is at least potentially applicable, that that does not violate our Constitution.” – Barack Obama
(Its) “an assault on law enforcement’s efforts to punish these heinous felons for the most despicable crime.” ** “That there is a judge anywhere in America who does not believe that the rape of a child represents the most heinous of crimes, which is deserving of the most serious of punishments, is profoundly disturbing,” McCain said in a statement. – John McCain
