In 2011, Californians saw protests against the spending cuts to services for the elderly, poor, sick, and college students. The protesters spoke out against the cuts and directed their anger at those they deemed responsible for the reductions, mainly banks and big corporations. However, California Democrats and the people who supported job-killing legislation deserve blame […]

Thoughts on Iraq
I was surprised at the balance in your article “Out of Iraq” (Jan. 5) from a liberal media like the Sun. However, some comments are still deserved. We did not go to war in Iraq over oil; we get only 5 percent from them today; before, 0 percent. The WMD were believed in by the […]
Thanks for the laugh
Chuck, you make me chuckle (“We can no longer support the freebies,” Jan. 5), but let’s get real. Yeah, it’s another sad day in America when the federal government is spending our hard-earned money on “illegals” … like the $3T on our Wall Street, white-collar, corporate criminal syndicate, international investment bank, financial fraud empire, and, […]
We can longer support the freebies
Why are taxpayers forced by law, effective Jan. 1, to pay for the college education of children brought into this country illegally, or born to parents here illegally? Is it not enough we pay for educating them kindergarten through high school and give free lunches and breakfasts at the expense of American children’s education? Why […]
Here’s how to hope for peace on Earth
A recent writer lamented being robbed of her liberty to celebrate Christmas by government, city, and private industries (“Let’s take back Christmas,” Dec. 22). Apparently because the schools close for “winter break” instead of “Christmas vacation,” she has been prevented from celebrating as she did in the good old days. Without a nativity scene on […]
Let’s take back Christmas
Over several years now, government, city, and private industries have robbed us of our Christian liberties and the freedom to celebrate Christmas. Removing nativity scenes from public places, referring to Christmas trees as “holiday trees,” Christmas vacation as “winter break,” and excessive use of “Happy Holidays” erode our freedoms to celebrate Christmas as we have […]
We must protect the 14th Amendment
Do we have the appetite for change, or are we just going along for the ride? If we want to have equal representation, we are going to have to ask the Supreme Court to revisit the Buckley v. Valeo ruling upholding the ruling that holds money as personal property and the use of money as […]
Who wants Nipomo urbanized?
“There you go again” was an often-used quote of Ronald Reagan every time Jimmy (Misery Index) Carter abused the truth about Reagan’s policy. Anyone who is delusional enough to believe the NCSD’s bureaucratic reality TV, snap out of it. Their Kardashian-style bull gas will pollute what’s left of our rural environment and result in the […]
Get ready to shop local with me
I would love to see an article encouraging people to spend some of their dollars locally, and to specifically buy Made in America products. The average person spends about $700 for Christmas, and if we spent $64 of that on Made in America products, we could create 200,000 jobs. (That is according to the ABC […]
Don’t focus on a bad apple
I, like former Corporal Kanady (“‘Like a pawn on a chessboard,’” Oct. 20), am a veteran of multiple combat tours. I don’t believe that we were just “numbers,” and my time in-country did serve a purpose. All this is is the whining of a bad soldier; besides, he joined for the wrong purpose. Jail time […]
We have to move toward shutting down nuclear
I am not a scientist like Edward L. Quinn, who had his viewpoint printed recently (“Nuclear power continues to be safe and reliable,” The Tribune, Nov. 10), about the safety and reliability of nuclear power generation. He also mentioned the low cost to ratepayers. It does not take a scientist to discover the fact that […]
Liberals and gangs–am I right?
We are all sick and tired of gangs destroying our country. I say put a bounty on their heads, and let’s get rid of the scum forever. We, the people, are tired of liberals protecting the rats.
