LETTERS: Obama is no Margaret Thatcher
Since Obama has been president, unemployment has not been below 7.7 percent, 24 million people are looking for jobs and millions have just given up.
LETTERS: No proof budget reduction will create jobs
Is there any proof that reducing the federal budget by hundreds of billions of dollars every year will create any jobs?
LETTERS: Fund schools by closing corporate tax loopholes
Georgia Gwinnett College is facing a budget cut of $2.7 million, a cut that could lead to more furlough days for faculty and staff, reduced library hours for students, and a hiring freeze.
LETTERS: Robinson wrong on drone opinion
I disagree with Eugene Robinson's assertion ("Obama dead wrong on drone hits," 8A, Feb. 8) that the president is wrong to target American citizens who have leadership roles in terrorist groups that plot against the United States.
LETTERS: HB 159 neither efficient nor fiscally responsible
Bill both inefficient, fiscally irresponsible. Under the guise of protecting homeowners from foreclosure and the IRS, Georgia House Bill 159 seeks to have all fees billed separate from our property tax bill. While that sounds like a good idea on the surface, I can find no record of any Georgia
LETTERS: Local football recruits should show more loyalty to state schools
As an alumnus of the University of Georgia and longtime resident of this great state, I take a lot of pride in being a Georgian. Unfortunately, most of the best high school football players in Gwinnett County don't feel the same way.
LETTERS: Big game hardly 'super'
Let's rename the professional football championship game. There was not one thing, except the 108-yard kickoff return, that was "super."
LETTERS: Article on White House reporters shows president as elitist
Excuse me while I barf, but the report of the ABC journalist who visited the Wesleyan School ("Reporter offers glimpse of Obama's world, 1A, Jan. 30) mirrors the sickening adulation of our current president by the mainstream media.
LETTERS: Why not try retirees as hall monitors?
What if stay-at home-parents or retired adults could volunteer to monitor public school halls at local neighborhood schools?
LETTERS: Balance the budget already
So, U.S. law calls for us to pass a budget each year, and we haven't done that since President Obama has taken office.
LETTERS: Work at home needed to help educational system
Work at home needed to help educational system. It is not often that I agree with Esther Cepeda's point of view but her column 0/2013 ("Get parents on hot seat with teachers, too," Jan. 20, page 8A) was right on target. We continually hear how more money, more, or
LETTERS: Disarming citizens not the answer
Disarming citizens not the answer. How appropriate that the headline in the Jan. 17 paper read "Obama unveils plan for gun violence." This is exactly what will happen if the. administration achieves its goal of disarming law-abiding citizens.. If lunatics find it so easy to kill people in
LETTERS: Loss of principles leads to moral decline
Loss of principles leads to national moral decline. I most certainly agree with the recent letter from Raymond Woziniak that Georgia's mental health and corrections public agencies have deteriorated since the late '70s. Our prison system now often functions "as the waste bin for the mentally disabled." The ACLU
LETTERS: Insurance companies will make sure direct-pay doc idea fails
Insurance industry will ensure direct pay doc idea fails. The direct-pay doc idea mentioned in Nate McCullough's column has come and gone many years ago ("Direct-pay doc an idea whose time has come," Jan. 4, 6A). In the 1950s, my mother would bring me to the doctor's
LETTERS: Suwanee attorney will be missed
On behalf of the State Bar of Georgia, I am writing to express condolences to the family, colleagues and friends of longtime attorney John Leon Adair Sr. of Suwanee on his recent passing.. Mr. Adair's exemplary career in the legal profession spanned more than half a century, including 47 years
