I support the death penalty in limited cases, however I strongly oppose the death penalty the way Texas uses it, where murder itself in any case can result in a death sentence. If it's taking 2 hours to die, this is a clear 8th Amendment case, and the Supreme Court's refusal to make them disclose the drugs/manufacturers, or to stop the torture is just another example of how partisan and activist this court has gotten.

"...nor cruel and unusual punishments inflicted."

I think the constitutionality of an execution that takes two agonizing hours is quite settled."
