I see where you are coming from, and while I do believe it's logical, I don't believe it's morally right. Crimes in the eyes of humanity are still crimes, no matter how the leader may choose to justify them. There is a difference between trying someone and putting them to death and simply ordering your troops to wipe out a village. The Texas analogy brings this to light every bit as much as what happened with Saddam. Kansas also has the death penalty, or we did, the last time I was aware. However, the police don't simply go to a suspects house and execute them w/out a trial. There is a difference between being judge, jury and executioner, and letting the system dispense justice, if it can be called that.

Bob Barker just lost a lot of my respect.

I really doubt Bob Barker was actually serious. Probably more like getting a phone, hearing request, calling someone and passing it on with a "recomendation" that he knows will never be granted. The man isnt stupid, he knows it will never come to fruition. Likely he is just humouring her.

I'm surprised The Price Is Right is still on the air myself.
