I'd prefer to read that Obama disagreed with Kennedy's arbitrary and capricious "reasoning" on many SCOTUS decisions. Whether Obama thinks a child rapist should get executed is pretty irrelevant, since the feds should have nothing to do with such punishment. Pretty sure that excecuting a child rapist would not have been considered remotely cruel when the Bill of Rights was written.
