Is there a built in stored procedure that would allow me to list out
the database permissions assigned to a particular user or role?

Not really. Rather you are best off querying the view
sys.database_permissions. You can also use fn_my_permissions and
has_perms_by_name, but you would first need to impersonate the user in
question.

All the above applies to SQL 2005 only. There were big overhaul of
security in SQL 2005.

Make it a habit to always specify which version of SQL Server you are using
when you ask questions.
