I am surprised you printed Keith O'Dell's diatribe against John Nash. Even with your follow-up correcting Mr. O'Dell's assertion that Mr. Nash's column violated "journalism," something he certainly should have known, you simply provided a forum for Mr. O'Dell to spew venom at Mr. Nash, with virtually nothing to justify it. ...more

In the June 22 edition of Highlands Today there is a letter best described as a diatribe submitted by Jerry Nargelovic. The writer should take time to learn the facts before writing such balderdash and he needs to learn that we cannot become isolated from the rest of the world. Global is the word today and not isolation. Incidentally, even the letter heading is incorrect. ...more

After reading still another diatribe by our local Democrat sycophant Mr. Geouque, I find myself obliged to reply to his obviously partisan statements. First: "that the economy is essentially sound." Yes it is. ...more

It always amazes me how right wingers respond when presented with facts. It is obvious they can't accept facts because facts disturb their little comfort zone, which the neo-con, globalist controlled corporate media has built for them. They like to dismiss facts as "volatile diatribe" or "violent cacophony" or worse. The person presenting the facts is immediately labeled a radical, liberal, angry hate-monger. For your enlightenment, Mr. Gallagher, here are some facts. I am a Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, Eisenhower-type Republican and no one is more true conservative than I. I also find it disgusting that you feel free to define my objectives with respect to my military career, when you don't even know me. Here are some more facts sir: ...more

Refer to Mr. Ludacer's literal repeat of his editorial concerning the Patriot Act and Major Johnston's volatile diatribe about our efforts in Iraq. It's a shame Highlands Today can't find something new to accept instead of simply allowing a repeat of an earlier editorial from Mr. Ludacer or the kind of attack mounted by the major. It seems the major has an axe to grind with the military, apparently because he could not advance beyond the rank of major. Personally, I didn't get beyond the lower ranks of the enlisted men but I didn't and don't blame politics for that. 1 simply recognize that I did not apply myself to do any better and the major doesn't seem to be able to face that fact about himself. He chooses to pass the blame to politicians, for whom I often also have little love lost but they aren't the bullies standing in the way of personal development. ...more
