To let you know up front I'm a democrat, I don't vote straight party tickets, cause that's stupid, I have some serious socialist leanings in certain areas, and some conservative leanings in others.

1. I believe that what is done with a fetus is the right of the woman carrying it, to choose what she does with it. To me that is Black and White.

2. I believe in the Death penalty. You do the crime you suffer the penalty. There are those who are introducign legislation to make child molestation a death penalty crime. I agree.

3. I believe we should all be allowed to carry concealed weapons, as long as we can legally obtain the weapon.

4. I believe the republicans are wrong to reduce taxes if by doing so makes education suffer, only affects the rich, and puts a larger burden on the poor.

5. The War in Iraq is a necessary evil, but the efforts to bring bin Laden to justice have been ignored for to long.

I could go on and on...but then I would be high jacking the posting...

South Dakota is wrong and I suspect that the issue will be fought all the way to the supreme court over and over...
