Today's Opinions

Henry David Thoreau once said, “If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him keep step to the music he hears, however measured and far away.”

Have you ever had a dream? I’m sure you have, whether it be astronomical or simply down-to-earth. Everyone’s had a dream in one form or another.

With dreams, there’s always that one person who just doesn’t get it and feel you need to go down a more realistic path.

It’s frustrating, isn’t it?

With the election of Barack Obama, the misnomer of the Fairness Doctrine has raised its ugly head again.

There should be a law against naming bills that go through Congress because the name rarely reflects the contents of the bill.  All bills are assigned a number and, just like in federal prison, they don’t need a name.

Soon, Liberals in Congress will once again try to reintroduce the Fairness Doctrine, which should be named the Suppression of Free Speech Doctrine.  

I was watching the news this past week and something rather grave was brought to my attention.

Four major newspapers went out of business. I overheard someone at the store say they always read news on the Internet instead of the newspaper itself, because it’s quicker, saves time and prevents them from having to buy a copy since they can just read it and go for free.
