A rare instance of a marginally political post from BeginInTheMiddle:

As I scanned the blog pages this morning, I came up with something disturbing. Moxie, who I enjoy reading (and let's not forget, is quite the hottie), lists a previous post entitled "Warms the cold heart" and as disgusting as the t-shirt referred to in that post is to me personally, I agree with her right to post her thoughts on this or any subject.

Furthermore, I disagree with those thoughts.

Let me say that again.

That's what it's all about. We have the right to think/write/say/do what we want, to agree or disagree, and to post it. I've never understood how those who enjoy living in a free society can be so militantly against certain things. It's all or none. The choice someone else made may not be the choice you'd make, but isn't it wonderful that you have the right to choose?

Let me also say that I firmly believe no one has the right to judge anyone. This post was totally judgemental (snippet: "heartless, unprincipled liberal who kills babies") and Moxie had every right to make it so.

I just disagree.

And others do too. My thanks to Madame Butterfly and Blonde But Bright, and to The Binary Circumstance for posting their views, and my thanks to Moxie as well for posting hers.
