EDITORIAL: Hillary Clinton’s felonious ignorance
Parsing the weasel words of politicians is not a job for most Americans.

Published September 2, 2015
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: The enemy is near

EDITORIAL: Turkey’s growing instability
Once the eastern anchor of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (geography has little to do with how governments title treaties), Turkey has become a problem, and a large one, for NATO policymakers. The problem contributes to the chaos in the Middle East. Published August 31, 2015

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: End voter fraud with IDS
Debate continues on whether we should require photo identification for all voters. One must consider why it is appropriate to require an ID for the writing a check or the paying of a bill (and taxes), but it is 'unreasonable' to require a voter to identify himself when it comes to choosing our leaders. Published August 31, 2015

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Use existing illegals law

Sunlight is usually a good disinfectant, but not always. Published August 30, 2015

EDITORIAL: Judge sifts through Hillary Clinton’s emails
Hercules was the original man who gets things done. Tales of his 12 labors that included the slaying of monsters are the stuff of heroic legend.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Confederate flag has rich history
This country owes as much of its enviable martial heritage to the U.S. south as to the north. But now to serve popular morality, we apparently must banish from history the Confederate battle flag and those who served under it. Published August 27, 2015
