When bought-and-paid-for labor union apologists like President Barack Obama sleazily try to fear-monger Americans into looking the other way as Democrats stimulate the economy they destroyed by blowing obscene amounts of taxpayer dollars on the same kind of irrelevant left-wing power grabs that destroyed the auto industry and prolonged the Great Depression, our only recourse is vocal public outrage.
Never once in the history of Western Civilization has any country spent and borrowed its way out of a recession, but as long as Democrats insist on misrepresenting the failed policies of the past as “change,” Americans will continue to rise up against this violent shove into socialism.

The UC Wellness Center’s stated mission is to provide resources to the community about health and wellness and to support healthy decisions, behaviors and lifestyles. Then the article in Sunday’s paper describes a “Week of Sexploration at UC.” From the list of programs and events, it seems to be promoting lustful behavior and the spreading of STDs, not to mention moral depravity; certainly not most people’s idea of a romantic Valentine’s Day!

I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw that the most popular Super Bowl ad was the most offensive (“Doritos line brothers’ path to $1 million prize,” Feb. 2). Adults throwing water globes through the front of a snack machine so others could steal the product the commercial was hawking? Then another adult throws a water globe and it hits his boss in the crotch? How sophomoric.
These commercials give off too many ideas. Unfortunately, it doesn’t show the consequences. What has happened to our sense of funny? Destroying property? Stealing? Recklessly throwing a glass ball at someone? Of course, there are never any consequences in commercials. The brothers who are making a mint from this junk were written up in this paper and interviewed on WCPO’s noon news. It was considered hysterical. Society is hysterical enough already without garbage like this.

Thinks 'pro-choice' is misnomer
In Ellen Goodman’s syndicated column “Back and forth on abortion” (Jan. 31), she repeatedly refers to “pro-choice,” a term that I think is a misnomer – i.e. with the exception of those who have become pregnant due to rape, all other pregnant women have become that way because they’ve already made the choice to engage in an activity that they knew could result in pregnancy. Therefore, what “pro-choice” people are doing is supporting those ladies’ “right” to terminate a life that God chose to create.

Haha! Oh, Nancy Sonneman. What has happened to our sense of funny? I think I want that on a t-shirt. It makes you wonder what these people do all day long.
Oh god. The first two, and the last one are pretty predictable. West Siders don't like Obama or sex or abortion. Ho hum.
But.. the superbowl ad one? I figured it would be about the GoDaddy ad, until I saw "winner" and went "What the hell could she find offensive about DORITOS?"
Oh, Nancy Sonneman. Do we not have better things to worry about, like Western Bowl or Sexploration week? Seriously.
Let's start a project: we'll write ridiculous letters to the editor just to see how low the Enquirer will go!
writing letters is genius! should we sign them with our real names, or fake ones?
The Super Bowl letter was my fave, too. This lady is whack - she apparently wants serious in her adverts, so maybe Dorito should just have a scientist read the nutritional information. THAT'LL sell some cool ranch flavored corn chips.
Hey be nicer to West Siders. We aren't all hyper conservative. I like sex AND Obama. No one likes abortion, even pro-choice people (myself incuded).
We did manage to vote Chabot out, it's something.
Anybody who has not lived here or (like me, in the Deep South) would never believe that this stuff isn't made up. Saturday Night Live should do so well.
I like the idea of a contest. I'd be willing to bet that some over-the-top pen names would slip through the Enquirer's net...they aren't smart enough to catch them.
Emily, I grew up on the West Side. I think it gives me license to make fun. And I turned out liberal! ;)
Believe it or not, the Enquirer actually does verify the existence of letter-writers. In a way, I think it's good to know that people with such views are out there.
Love it- wow - complaining about the superbowl ad - hahahaha
My dad wrote a letter to the editor in his hometown complaining about squirrels...hahahaha!
