When a man and woman enter into marriage, it is a legal contract that is supposed to last until "death do us part." However, if the man becomes abusive, then people are all for divorce (breaking the contract), and rightly so. ...more

Refer to Mr. Ludacer's literal repeat of his editorial concerning the Patriot Act and Major Johnston's volatile diatribe about our efforts in Iraq.

Anyone who refused to say yes to Bush's demands was fired, or resigned rather than be a part of this administration's insanity. ...more

Do they authorize their children to drive the family riding lawnmower as a means of entertainment for joy riding on your residential street? Do your neighbor's children bring invited guests over, only to have you find them playing in your yard? ...more
