MCCULLOUGH: English more important in health profession
I don't make a habit of responding to other columns in this paper, but I would like to add something to one that appeared Thursday by Esther Cepeda.. The headline was "Hang-ups with official languages," and concerned her belief that English will continue
KING: Rubio's poll numbers mean amnesty could be held off this year
Despite Rubio's ridiculous radio and TV ad campaign, a Rasmussen poll last week shows only 30 percent think the government is likely to actually secure the border if the Gang of Eight legalization scam passes. Apparently, the other 70 percent remember 1986. Here's hoping we remember the many faces of Marco Rubio as long.

PARKER: The Bush I knew
In a reprieve from the horror of the most recent terrorist attack, the nation's attentions turned to the man who declared war on terrorism, George W. Bush.. During Thursday's dedication of his library at Southern Methodist University, nary a word was spoken about the most controversial aspect of his tenure
KEMP: What community papers mean to me
A wise man once told me, "If it isn't in the newspaper, it never really happened." I have found this to be no truer than in politics. Community newspapers are true guardians of the public interest and the absolute best purveyor of accurate local information.
O'REILLY: Drones are not terrorism
Shortly after the terror bombings in Boston last week, two different media people made statements that were alarming to say the least. Two days after the attack, McClatchy reporter Amina Ismail asked White House spokesman Jay Carney: "President Obama said that what happened in Boston was an act of terrorism
CEPEDA: Shrugging off words that hurt
What do you do when you get trapped in a stereotype that doesn't apply -- or just plain hurts?. This is not a trivial question. As Hispanics start populating academia, newsrooms, boardrooms and courtrooms across the country, they face the tricky terrain of interacting with people who have different backgrounds
YARBROUGH: Boston attack brings back memories of Atlanta bombing
When the terrorist attacks occurred in Boston during the running of the Boston Marathon, memories came flooding back of our own dark days in Atlanta.
LETTERS: Thankful for caution light
Thankful for caution light. I am a longtime resident of Gwinnett living in the community called the Promise Land. I have worked extremely hard over the years to keep this part of Gwinnett a viable community and a great place to live.. I recently brought an issue to Commissioner Tommy
LETTERS: Attack on Bush disappointing
Attack on Bush disappointing. I am so deeply disappointed in the Daily Post for Eugene Robinson's column ("Stains on George W. Bush's presidential legacy," April 26, 7A) for publishing such an obviously extremely biased article on President Bush.
HUCKABY: Nothing could be finer than watching reruns and eating TV dinners
Sometimes Southern sandwiches made frozen TV dinners look good.
LETTERS: Remembrance of 'Fig' captured his spirit
Thank you for remembering Fig in column. I just wanted to take a moment and thank Will Hammock for his column on Ryan Figlestahler ("Beloved 'Fig" remembered for humor, spirt," April 25, 1B).. I first met Ryan when I was 6 or 7 years old, and he was probably
MCCULLOUGH: No good deed goes unpunished
No good deed goes unpunished. All I wanted to do was give the dude his phone back.. Tuesday evening I found a newer BlackBerry in a gas station parking lot. My first thought was to leave it with the attendant, but I quickly brushed that idea aside, thinking that a
ROBINSON: Stains on a legacy
In retrospect, George W. Bush's legacy doesn't look as bad as it did when he left office. It looks worse.. I join the nation in congratulating Bush on the opening of his presidential library in Dallas. Like many people, I find it much easier to honor, respect and even like
THOMAS: No boundaries, big problem
One of the consequences of abandoning a standard by which right and wrong can be judged is our increasing inability to mete out punishment that fits the crime. In fact, too often we weigh extenuating circumstances rather than guilty actions.. In the case of the Boston bombers, observers search for
CEPEDA: The wise words of Uncle Ruslan
After a gut-wrenching week of terror, my award for bravery in the face of adversity goes to Ruslan Tsarni.. The uncle of Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who are suspected of having carried out the Boston Marathon bombings, stepped into the spotlight and showed uncommon humility and fortitude.. Tsarni did
LETTERS: Reflections on Boston
Reflections on Boston. It was inspiring to me that the people of the Boston area stood shoulder to shoulder in solidarity and sang "God Bless America." Our hearts and prayers are focused on those families that have suffered tremendous pain and sorrow due to death and injury of this
KING: On immigration and promises from the Gang of Eight: Remember 1986
The American people put down an amnesty attempt last in 2007. Ask yourself: If they were at all sincere, why didn't the same people who were selling legalization then dedicate themselves to making the promises become reality before the 2013 legalization promise campaign?
