Bush is not a tyrant
Jack L. Ingram III makes a classic liberal mistake in his January 24th article “Bush: tyrant, president or idiot.” Even though he refers to Bush as the Commander in Chief, he fails to remember that we are at war. This is not a policing matter; America is a war with a corrupted ideology of hate […]

Where did all the nice guys go? In hiding.
Frankly, Samantha, from the tone of your column and the description of your friends, I think the nice guys are actively avoiding you. I know, I know, women think they can bat their eyes and we come running – all is forgiven, no matter how many times you have “preyed” on us in the past. […]

The library is no place to study. Change it back
So I guess I was a little late on finding out the recent changes made to the library. I admit, it wasn’t until the third week that I finally migrated towards the bomb shelter we call our library. I was immediately shocked by the new setup of the reserve room. And to be honest, I […]

I'll give you the facts on global warming
I heartily enjoyed Mr. Eller’s political column on the Kyoto Protocol. His unsupported claims and faulty logic greatly amused me. He used the old fallback excuse that “there is not enough known about global warming, therefore we should sit on our hands and do nothing.” He claims that “we” are uncertain if global warming is […]

If Iraq is worth the money, global warming certainly is too
I keep re-reading Brian Eller’s article on global warming and still can’t figure out how he relates this environmental cause to the holocaust. Apparently, people concerned with the depletion of natural resources are Nazis. Good work. The problem may not be as bad as some activists make it sound, but that does not mean we […]

A sustainable society is feasible
Sustainability Month’s theme as an “environmental armageddon” does not seem quite accurate. I attended many of the events and not once did I hear of an inevitable death to mankind. What I heard was rather how we can profitably transition our society and economy towards sustainability to ensure a healthy, resource abundant future. Many of […]

Some knowledge for Mr. Eller
Brian Eller, I hope your column on global warming was just an extreme right-wing shock article to stir up some commotion (Rush Limbaugh style), because if you actually believe in what you wrote, that’s scary. How selfish can you be to say that global warming is not a problem today? Now, I’m assuming that for […]

But will the music of 2006 bring us listeners something new to play repeatedly on our iPods? This year, […]
