LETTER: Selective use of political labels

I see descriptions in headlines such as “Argentina’s right-wing president-elect” and “Biden advisor to speak with rightist leader.” I never see anything about the “leftist” Canadian leader or “leftist” French leader, etc.

Never the leftist label for liberals but always the right-wing label for conservatives.

Don't miss the big stories. Like us on Facebook.
THE LATEST
LETTER: Is women’s health all about abortion?

There are more recent reports from the CDC and others that paint an even worse picture, but the message is clear: We need to start being concerned with real “women’s health ” issues — and it is not abortion.

LETTER: “No taxes on tip” ploy unfair to other workers

People who only get a paycheck have to be thinking: “Why will these other people be paying no taxes on up to 75 percent of their earnings, while we are getting taxed on our whole paycheck?”

LETTER: Trump and the Purple Heart

A Purple Heart is awarded only to those individuals who sustain injury or are killed in the course of performing duties while a “member of an armed force” or to a civilian who is injured or killed while serving “with one of the U.S. Armed Services.”
