To The Editor: Well its about time you got a decent person to move into the sewer state. Crawford will reap many benefits from Sheehan. If you want to save your town, make your number one problem go away, Dumbya Bush. Or you could even bring,Cheney back and sell hunting trips with him to all the residents. Nice talk

In Memory Of My Friend The Soldier
In Memory Of My Friend The Soldier On Friday, July 14, 2006, while I was sitting in a newsroom pecking away at a keyboard, my friend Brooke Wood was dying. Brooke and I were good friends through all of our high school days. He was in R.O.T.C., and talked about becoming a soldier all the time. I was in journalism, and talked about becoming a professional writer all the time. We were on two very different paths, but that never stopped us from being friends. Even when we had fights over girls, it was just water under the bridge. I remember my graduation night like it was just yesterday. Brooke and I practically walked the stage together, given both our last names start with the same letter. He told me after we sat back down, having turned our tassels, that he had joined up. That night, he said, would be his last in town, at least for a few years. After the ceremony, Brooke and I went to his church, just down the street. We were both living in a rather small town, so even though I did not frequent this particular house of worship, pretty much everyone there knew me anyway. They were having a going away party for him. While he was social with all the well-wishers, I just sat quietly in the back of the sanctuary, wondering what other radical changes were coming down the pipeline. We drank Red Bull and stayed out all night, putzing around. We had a good time, and then I said goodbye. I never saw him again. He joined the Army and became a demolitions expert. If it could explode, Brooke wanted to play with it. It was just in his nature, I guess. He worked with all kinds of various munitions; even Depleted Uranium. Especially Depleted Uranium. What with the Army dumping hundreds of millions of dollars into new DU bombs, and refusing to research the long-term effects of DU poisoning, maybe Brooke was in over his head. Fact of the matter is, Depleted Uranium is more deadly than Agent Orange. Millions of people have been exposed, and a vast majority suffers because of it. Many die. It causes tumors, birth defects, infections, nervous system disorders and brain damage, to name a few. Some who are poisoned do not know it, and pass on mutated, irradiated DNA to their children who are born terrifying effigies of nature run afoul. But, it is the best of the best. A single DU-tipped bullet can cut through tank armor like butter. It is one of the most powerful weapons in the Army

Hutchison Should Debate Radnofsky
Hutchison Should Debate Radnofsky Is Libertarian Nominee For Governor A Nobody? U.S. Sen Kay Bailey Hutchison has just released a column elaborating on her Senate accomplishments this year, such as supporting the PATRIOT Act, authorizing certain funds for the armed forces in their “War on Terror,” providing tax cuts in order to achieve economic growth, authorizing the opening of 8.3 million acres in the Gulf of Mexico for oil and gas production, increasing Pell Grants, and assuring that Hurricane Rita victims were treated fairly by the federal government. This is what she said she did. Some might argue a few of these as positives, others as negatives, especially when you read between the lines and attempt to draw parallels of her words to the real world. And some, like her opponent in the race, Barbara Ann Radnofsky, might feel compelled to point out where Hutchison failed to stand up for Texans, especially regarding Alaskan pork, or simply to question Hutchison
