Corzine’s Spin Can’t Hide Record Job Losses
To the Editor:
All summer long, Jon Corzine has been touting gains in private sector jobs as “proof” that his policies have brought New Jersey out of recession. But his July claims vanished in an August “statistical update” and the September numbers show that we’ve lost another 12,000 private sector jobs as unemployment climbed to [...]
Texans Vote in the November Election
An e-mail misinformation campaign has been circulating that makes false statements about Propositions 2 and 3. The e-mail claims that passing these propositions will allow the state to start taxing homeowners.
Obama Does Not Deserve The Nobel Peace Prize?
To the Editor:
I woke up this morning at around 10 am Pacific Standard Time and tuned into KPCC 89.3, a National Public Radio station here in Los Angeles, located on the campuses of Pasadena City College. The host of Air Talk, Larry Mantle was discussing the subject of President Barack Obama being honored with the [...]
Copenhagen Can Open New Era of Clean and Economical Energies
To the Editor:
Highly paid government bureaucrats will be descending in masses on Copenhagen in December of 2009. They all have instructions to defend the status quo and make sure that the world will follow the outdated and ineffective recommendations and provisions of the ill conceived Kyoto Protocol.Only a few, if any, officials have any concept [...]
Rep. Peter King of NY: Wrong About Michael Jackson
To the Editor:
As the world celebrates the life of Michael Jackson (MJ), we have a Congressman who posted a video on You Tube, demeaning the life and legacy of “The King of Pop” Michael Jackson (MJ).
While I respect Congressman King’s right to free speech, I find it unfortunate that he is amongst a number [...]
Stand Up to the Republicans!
To the Editor:
My recent writings have focused on the problems in the health care system and why the Democrats don’t seem to be making things any better. It seems that despite their large majority and control in both houses of Congress and the White House have not given them the courage to push for the [...]
On Health Care Reform: Stand up for Your Beliefs!
To the Editor:
Sen. Max Baucus said the public option offered a great opportunity to “hold insurance companies’ feet to the fire”. Then he voted against two amendments that included the public option. Doesn’t make much sense, does it? Well it seems in the political world it does. Apparently, because Sen. Baucus doesn’t believe the Senate [...]
What if it Was Father Polanski?
To the Editor:
I’m pretty disgusted by Hollywood insiders’ defense of Roman Polanki’s pedophilia. Watching Hollywood elite plead a case for leniency for the “good works” he has supposedly done with his life since the rape is just unbelievable.
This was not some innocent love affair with an age gap. Rather, he was charged with feeding the [...]
Barack Obama and Racism
To the Editor:
The Barack Obama racism issue in America is one that threatens to tear this nation’s core values apart. Whether you are a red or blue state follower is less important than the values that we bring to our children and our children’s children. If any one “race” has “claim” to the U.S., it’s [...]
Should You Read Good News?
To the Editor:
These days, we are bombarded with bad news by the mainstream media. We can scarcely open a newspaper or turn on the TV without being faced with the latest “scare-story” about swine flu, or another bank failure, or another trillion-dollars added to the national budget’s deficit. Reports giving dire warning of bad times [...]
