				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Re: &#8220;Men get wagging fingers &#8211; women get ruined reputations&#8221; (Kathleen Parker column, 11-28).</p>
<p>Although I am all for women&#8217;s rights, I&#8217;m tired of feminists going off on tangents about how some poor woman is being misrepresented in the media, especially if we&#8217;re talking about Paula Broadwell. Parker&#8217;s column has no substance and lacks any actual source to back up her claims.</p>
<p>Parker is filling some poor, unknowing readers&#8217; heads with her opinion, which is not based in fact but rather heavily steeped in feminist garbage.</p>
<p>Parker claims that men walk away from scandals such as this &#8220;virtually unscathed.&#8221; Last I checked, David Petraeus no longer has a job and the only reason Gen. John Allen does is because the president pushed aside the hold the FBI had on his promotion. And does anyone remember what happened to John Edwards? I bet he will never try running for president again.</p>
<p>Sure, sometimes the man does get away with something, but that&#8217;s certainly not the case here. And based on every timeline I&#8217;ve read to back up my own claim, poor Broadwell does sound like a &#8220;hormonally driven&#8221; vixen. But frankly, I don&#8217;t care how other people lead their lives.</p>
<p>Parker asks, &#8220;Do we really care so much who and how people choose to fill the void in their lives? Is it our business?&#8221;</p>
<p>No, so please stop talking about it.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here we are just a few days beyond Barack Obama&#8217;s re-election, and already his Cabinet members appear to be leaving in droves.  Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Attorney General Eric Holder have said they are not keen on another term with Team Obama. And now David Petraeus has resigned as CIA director due to his own &#8220;unacceptable behavior&#8221; by engaging in an extramarital affair.</p>
<p>Clinton and Petraeus have been under investigation since the 9/11 attack in Benghazi.  Holder has been held in contempt by Congress for his participation in the failed &#8220;Fast and Furious&#8221; debacle.  What does this exodus mean?  Could it be these three top-level Cabinet members need to get out of town before the hammer falls?</p>
<p>I personally will never understand why a rational, reasonably intelligent adult would even consider Obama for a second term.  There have been too many cover-ups, excuses, government bailouts (of the wrong population), divisiveness, blame, deflection of responsibility, racism, apologies, arrogance and too many vacations involuntarily paid for by people like me.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve already lost everything I spent my life working for during Obama&#8217;s first term, so I have nothing to lose except what&#8217;s left of my mind.  I can only pray that those who voted for the fraud they call president will wake up soon, realize how they&#8217;ve been snookered and urge their representatives to begin impeachment proceedings immediately.</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Re: Donald Trump&#8217;s <a href="http://www.thenewstribune.com/2012/02/02/2009816/billionaire-trump-endorses-millionaire.html#storylink=misearch">endorsement</a> of Mitt Romney.</p>
<p>It is clear to the most moderately intelligent observer that the GOP has already ceded the 2012 election to President Obama.</p>
<p>The party&#8217;s serious candidates &#8211; Jeb Bush, Mitch Daniels, Chris Christie and David Petraeus &#8211; have deferred until 2016. This leaves the Republican stage crowded with clowns and losers.</p>
<p>Newt Gingrich was rejected by his own party in a previous Congress. Rick Santorum lost his last election by double digits. The Donald and the Willard can only be regarded as Marie Antoinettes in gray flannel.</p>
<p>It is sad to see the party of Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt and Dwight Eisenhower brought down to the level of vaudeville. Any politician who grovels before Donald Trump to get an endorsement deserves our pity, but surely not our vote.</p>
