• Conservatives put stamp on Texas textbooks

  Fri Mar 12, 2010
  • No one is talking about "rewriting" history. My example of the Johnny Appleseed of California is calling attention to a deliberate omission of a proven fact. John Chapman was a missionary to the hundreds of families that he met in his almost 50 years of traveling.

• GOP cool to Obama's call for health talks

  Mon Feb 8, 2010
  • I'm not sure the government getting involved helps. It wasn't until the government said they were going to get involved with credit card issues that my interest rate went up. I understand the increase for people who abuse the system, but I paid my bills on time and kept my debt very low.

  • I'm sure I don't understand a lot, but why does everything have to be "overhauled"? Why can't a few small things be changed periodically? I have never understood why presidents with 4 year terms submit 12 year plans for governing.
