Brown’s attitude deserves recognition

By Dave Leno · Tuesday, March 10,2009 11:44 p.m.

Brown is the epitome of the blue-collar football player. He brings his lunch pail to every game and does everything in his power to help the team win. Taunting is not in his vocabulary.

Republicans are shifting blame for economic woes

Tuesday, March 10,2009 11:24 p.m.

This writer wondered how long it would take until Fox-Limbaugh Inc. would morph Barack Obama from George Bush as the cause of this longtime developing economic disaster. This even after our previous president and his treasury secretary went hat-in-hand to Congress in 2008 and asked them to save capitalism from itself. This after conservative guru Alan Greenspan admitted he blew it. He trused the marketplace to regulate itself. How naive can you be?

Unfairly stereotyping conservatives based on radicals

Tuesday, March 10,2009 11:22 p.m.

Tuesday, March 10,2009 11:18 p.m.

Kristi Lafree is absolutely right that the First Amendment protects Gen. Peter Pace’s right to make whatever statements he likes about his personal moral convictions. But the First Amendment only offers protection from legal consequences of free speech, not a guarantee of immunity from the social consequences of a given statement.
