List of problems grows
I do not understand why many Arkansans go to church on Sunday but will vote Democrat even if the presidential and vice-presidential candidates are both pro-choice. The speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi, recently tried to muddy the political water by [suggesting ] that the Catholic Church was vague on the issue of abortion. What ? Yet many Arkansans will say," Well, my parents and grandparents have always voted Democratic."When have Americans voted for party over philosophy ? I guess some Arkansans are just two-faced ? Furthermore, the Democratic Party is very slow to act on the energy issue.
Is it wrong for us to want lower gas prices while we look far into the future for alternative fuels ? What about an increase in taxes ? How will that affect us or the U. S. economy ? What about the Russia-vs.-Georgia surprise or the Israel-vs.-Iran crisis ? Who is watching the security of our nation ? We have not even solved the Social Security mess or the immigration debacle. I am very confused about Americans, Arkansans and U. S. politicians. We just keep adding to this list without solving any problems. It is time for us to solve problems, not add more items to that list. DANIEL PYNE / Cabot
