LETTER TO THE EDITOR: No more Clintons
Hillary Clinton should do the honorable thing and bow out gracefully. Her scandal-ridden resume makes her ineligible to hold the highest office in this great nation. She is detrimental to the Democratic Party and will put the United States in further peril as the opposition will not let up in exposing her past, and free nations of the world will have less respect for our country.

EDITORIAL: Memorial Day: ‘Peace is the right memorial’
Memorial Day in America has traditionally been a time when we pay our respects to those who gave their lives, over a century ago, in a tragic civil war. In a broader sense, it has come to stand not only for the sacrifice of those who served in the War Between the States, but for all of those who have given their lives in arms since the birth of our nation.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Don’t stand idly by
Evil worsens when good people stand silently by. Published May 24, 2015
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Obama, not Fox, disconnected
President Obama disarms criticism with humor. I doubt that it is his humor, of course; he likely openly borrows from his numerous writers. But if he can get you to laugh along with him and identify with his chuckle he can prevent your being disgusted by how he tears America down, insults Christianity and praises the contributions of Islam.

EDITORIAL: Obama puts control of Internet at risk
The Obama administration is determined to give away America's last remaining control of the Internet, an organization called the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN, by the end of this year. ICANN assigns the Internet addresses that makes the web work, and the Internet structure is not prepared to receive it. Published May 21, 2015
EDITORIAL: Americans don’t trust the press
Many Americans have moved beyond trusting anyone. They don't trust businessmen and they don't trust businesswomen. They think their bankers are out to cheat them, mistakes at the supermarket are always in the merchant's favor, and the men and women they elect to represent them in Congress turn out to be spineless panderers more interested in their perks of office than in protecting the interests of those who send them to Washington. The democratic government passed down by the nation's Founders has, in the eyes of the frustrated many, morphed into a bloated and incompetent bureaucracy. Published May 21, 2015
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Nun ‘Palestinian’ characterization misleading
Your coverage of the recent canonization of two 19th-century Arab Christian nuns featured some glaring historical distortions that need to be corrected ("Pope Francis canonizes first modern Palestinian saints in heavily symbolic move," Web, May 17). Published May 21, 2015

The liberals have called climate-change skeptics many things, none of them nice. Published May 20, 2015
EDITORIAL: Would Obama repeat his mistakes?
Washington's chattering class is still buzzing over the question posed to Jeb Bush — would he, knowing what he knows now about his brother's shock-and-awe campaign against Saddam Hussein and Iraq, do it again? (Having been burned once by sitting on a red-hot wood stove, would he sit there again?) Published May 20, 2015
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Perils of President Hillary Clinton
One has to wonder if the complete silence of Hillary Clinton with respect to the media isn't somehow related to her upcoming testimony before Rep. Trey Gowdy's committee investigating Benghazi. Published May 20, 2015
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Abortion a worse death than killers get
It's long been considered acceptable to abort a living fetus by dismemberment (a euphemistic term for being drawn and quartered in utero). It would take only one adult criminal sentenced to death by drawing and quartering to open the debate on the cruelty of this punishment, which abortionists describe merely as a medical procedure.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Pope mum on Mideast persecution
It seems very strange that the pope is not protecting the Christians in the Muslim world and in the areas controlled by Palestinian Muslim Arabs. For example, in Bethlehem under the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) control, the Christian population declined from 85 percent to 15 percent of the total. This occurred starting during Yasser Arafat's leadership and has continued into Mahmoud Abbas' control of the area. Published May 20, 2015
NRA: Judge’s ruling in D.C. a major victory for gun rights
A federal judge this week put on hold the District of Columbia's requirement that gun owners demonstrate a "good reason" in order to receive a concealed carry permit — saying the licensing scheme deprives citizens of their Second Amendment rights. Published May 19, 2015
NRA: How NRA altered the race for Gabby Gifford’s old Arizona seat
One of the most difficult 2014 congressional races, from the NRA's perspective, took place in Arizona, where former Rep.Gabrielle Gifford's one-time chief of staff was running for re-election. Ron Barber had been elected in 2012 after Gifford was shot by a mentally unbalanced shooter in 2011. As she was recovering, Gifford emerged as a major public advocate for firearms restrictions.

NRA: The lesson of Cory Gardner’s 2014 election victory
The 2014 Senate elections were among the most expensive in history because so much was at stake. The Republicans were fighting for control of the Senate, and the Democrats were doing everything they could to hold on to that control. The battle raged in more than 10 swing states.
