Rove's gotta go
Mr. Farah,
I could not agree with you more regarding Karl Rove. Every time I see Mr. Rove on TV, I change the channel. I do consider him the architect … of the destruction of the Republican Party. Along with Hastert, Frist, Bush and Cheney, he bastardized the party, leaving it mainly a disgustingly cheap, establishment party.
I am thoroughly encouraged by the tea party that is keeping some of the Republicans honest, but as long as Rove is part of the system, it will always have a big-government bent.

Watching the aggressive stupidity of WND on the Internet convinced me: I voted early – for OBAMA! Thanks for your help!

Great column, Mr. Farah ["Obama's 2nd-term war on domestic opposition"]. It’s a dire warning of things to come if Obama grabs a second term.
What is the real mission of the Department of Homeland Security? As time passes, the true intent of the DHS manifests. It is a government instrument not used to defend against foreign terrorism but to monitor, inhibit, control and intimidate ordinary Americans. The spirit of healthy dissent, political and otherwise, withers in such an environment. Freedom dies; statists win.

President Clinton’s speech at the Democratic Convention scared me to death. He said Romney and Ryan would cut Medicare and Medicaid – which pays for nursing homes . I know Romney wants pay down the debt. My brother and I decided that we had to vote for Obama.

Romney loses and we're doomed
Mr. Farah:
I have lived through several presidents. Before the 2008 election, I took the time (didn’t take very long at all) to research Obama’s background, early childhood, worldview and, most important, his associates. What I learned scared the hell out of me. I could see quite clearly that he is most definitely a socialist – with communist leanings. So I thought, naively it turns out, that the American people would never elect such a person as POTUS.
Oops.
Apparently, most people did not bother to learn the facts. Certainly the mainstream media didn’t. Or perhaps they did and chose to ignore it, ... continue reading »
Don't whine – act!
In reference to a letter to the editor, from Neil, who does not like either candidate for president so he will not vote – if he really wants to get the political parties out of the hands of the few elitists and back to the people, he needs to start by withholding contributions and start a letter-writing barrage.
He should stop buying the books of Karl Rove, Newt Gingrich, Charles Krauthammer and all the other elitists who think it is only their territory to pick who the Republican candidates will be. He needs to start writing letters and sending emails to conservative talk-show hosts ... continue reading »
