Letter: Baby The Rain Must Fall…..
RE: “Heat Done leads to Sweltering temperatures” Front page story starting on Front page, below the fold, on May 24th, which was just last month. The article mentioned that Florida & Texas were in this zone (closer to the equator?). What are we, chopped liver? I see now this week that ou…
Letter: Better off today than 4 years ago?

I saw a post today on social media, referring to Mr. Trump’s conviction, that said, “Jesus was wrongly accused and convicted, but I still follow Him.” Now, there is a thought for the ages, that Mr. Trump can be in any way compared to Jesus. So, let’s make a list of attributes, Jesus on the l…

Letter: Sex and Political Careers
Many Rs are trying to fog up the picture of Trump's scandal by claiming he would not have been so worried about his affairs' effect on his election campaign--it must have been a mere misfiling, not a real attempt to fool the public about his guilt and attitude toward women. Throughout I have…
Letter: Pima County Attorney
As a fairly close reader of the online edition of your newspaper, I’ve come to believe that your coverage of the primary race for Pima County attorney is unfairly slanted against Laura Conover. From what this non-attorney can see, Ms. Conover has always acted with professionalism and has gre…
