Kavanaugh mess reveals the Senate in dysfunction

Brett Kavanaugh has been nominated for a seat on the Supreme Court. Suddenly, a report comes to light that there may or may not have been a sexual situation that happened 36 years ago. Sitting on the Senate Judiciary Committee are Dianne Feinstein (who, it is reported, had a Chinese spy on her staff for 20 years) and Cory Booker (who tried to grope a girl’s breast in high school). And let us not forget that Richard Blumenthal lied about service in Vietnam.

Before these self-righteous people pass judgment on others, they should make sure their house can stand inspection. The circus didn’t fold. It moved to Washington and became the Senate.

Using race to justify or condemn the action of others is simply wrong and, some would say, the definition of racism. We are all one people.

LETTER: Is there another Joe Biden out there?

LETTER: Deciphering progressive jargon

I noticed recently that euphemisms are commonly used by progressives in order to make the agenda they support seem less harsh or unpleasant.

LETTER: Biden ignores the Supreme Court on student loans

Biden is constantly harping on how Trump is a threat to democracy and will be a dictator, eliminating our freedoms. It is Biden, however, who has proven himself the dictator who is threatening democracy.

LETTER: More on 1968

As a cop who was at not only at the 1968 Democratic convention at the Conrad Hilton on Michigan Avenue, but also the Chicago arson fires on the west side, I feel there were many reasons why the city was a tinderbox.
