The decision regarding a pregnancy termination should only be made between a women and her doctor. I know all the hulabaloo about informed spouses, parents, paternal donors, etc., but my own personal opinion is that the decision does not belong in a government cluster...er...mishmash, nor should it be a societal mandate. My body, my decision. Period.<BR/><BR/>AS to the death penalty...I have mixed feelings about that. I know that our judicial systems makes a lot of mistakes and that worries me. My initial feeling is that it is far more punishing to keep that offender in a maximum security prison than it is to give them a painless release. Does anyone really believe the death penalty prevents crimes? <BR/><BR/>On the other hand, if the crimes were more personal to me, a loved one that suffered from the hands of a rapist or murderer, then I imagine my wavering would change. I would personally perform the death penalty, complete with eye-gouging first.Cowtown Pattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07384649567351202679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-1133589894116944282005-12-03T00:04:00.000-06:002005-12-03T00:04:00.000-06:00Hi all!AC - I like mine hot.SRP - My son's current...Hi all!<BR/>AC - I like mine hot.<BR/><BR/>SRP - My son's current fave is the white chocolate mocha latte, too.

I blame my daughter for introducing me to them. She had one and I just had an iced coffee but she gave me a sip and I was a goner. I have to drive a long way for a Starbucks but I've been coming up with *reasons* to drive out thataway. Now that I'm thinking about it, I want one right now.AChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02949724388906286696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14598933.post-1133548517152079392005-12-02T12:35:00.000-06:002005-12-02T12:35:00.000-06:00Not really ;) To each his own...that's why we've ...Not really ;) To each his own...that's why we've got chocolate and vanilla !!poopiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09823435887138178443noreply@blogger.com
