LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Selective separation-of-powers outrage
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, California Democrat, decries the CIA spying on Congress as a violation of the separation of powers. However, the Democrats are very selective as to when they choose to invoke charges of violations of the separation of powers. Published August 4, 2014
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: West shouldn’t pander to Putin
I have been dismayed by the recent media coverage of events at Kiev's Maidan, the toppling of the corrupt Ukranian President Viktor Yanukovych, the subsequent invasion of Crimea and now the events in eastern Ukraine. Published August 1, 2014
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Gaza ‘analysis’ poorly veiled bigotry
So-called analysis of the Gaza conflict by many around the world is nothing but anti-Semitism, rank and gross in nature. Published August 1, 2014

EDITORIAL: Another economic bubble about to burst?
Good economic news hit the wires last week, with the wires humming a tune we haven't heard in a while. There were 208,000 new jobs created in July, and the economy grew at 3 percent. So why did the stock market take this as a signal to sell? Published August 1, 2014
EDITORIAL: An Indian success story

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Radar, torpedos to end Hamas tunnels?
There is a technical solution to Hamas' terrorist tunnel network in Gaza. It's surprising that the Israeli army hasn't used it. Published August 1, 2014
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: ‘Redskins’ hardly the only offender
"Hillary Clinton declares war on the Redskins, says name 'insensitive'" (Web, July 29) says Mrs. Clinton is joining the Democrats in deeming the Redskins' name "insensitive." The upheaval around the Redskins' name is warranted, but there is a bigger issue at play here. Published August 1, 2014

EDITORIAL: ‘Operation Choke Point’: A noose for business

EDITORIAL: Pols’ misrepresentations fuel public’s cynicism about politics
The public's regard for politicians can't fall much lower — used-car salesmen, terrorists and even journalists enjoy higher approval ratings — but several Senate candidates are doing their best to prove otherwise. Published July 31, 2014
EDITORIAL: For too many gays, ‘tolerance’ is a one-way street
It's so hard to find a job that students and graduates will do anything, almost. That's annoying activists who are upset that straight people have been crashing a job fair meant for homosexuals. Published July 31, 2014

Congress has come to our rescue again — or has it? Published July 31, 2014

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Reagan didn’t deregulate airlines
In "Is the president incompetent or lawless?" (Web, July 30), columnist Andrew P. Napolitano is guilty of what I call Reagan sycophancy. Published July 31, 2014

LETTER TO THE EDITOR: Atheists, let up on 9/11 cross
As a middle-school teacher of social justice and religious tolerance, I was disappointed to read in your July 29 article "Saving The 9/11 Cross" that the group American Atheists thinks that the "Ground Zero Cross" should not be displayed in the National Sept. 11 Memorial and Museum.
