 <title>Present administration doesn&#8217;t care about national security</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_324085420.html</link>
  <description>Is there anyone in their right mind naive enough to think that anyone in the present administration gives a tinker&#8217;s damn about national security?</description>

 <title>Soldier is terrorist, regardless of &#8216;ACLU Speak&#8217;</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_321181120.html</link>
  <description>It seems that, over the years, the radical left has created a mentality in our country that speaks to what they call &#8220;political correctness.&#8221; You know, stewardesses are now &#8220;flight attendants;&#8221; waitresses are now &#8220;servers;&#8221; an act of terror is now a &#8220;man-made disaster.&#8221; The media and some Americans have bought into all of this, what I call, &#8220;ACLU Speak.&#8221; It may have seemed harmless at the time, but it has miraculously permeated our society. Why?</description>

 <title>Downtown employees also some of the best customers</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_321181010.html</link>
  <description>I pay $90 a month to park in the George Street parking garage. I used to have a parking space on the lower level but they moved me so that downtown patrons would have parking. No one hardly ever parks there. You can check it out for yourself if you like.</description>

 <title>It&#8217;s time for public to just say no to &#8216;fire-safe cigarettes&#8217;</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_321180855.html</link>
  <description>I live in Romney, W.Va., and I have smoked for over 25 years now. I have noticed that my cigarettes have tasted funny, and they make me sick.</description>

 <title>Health care reform plans have been on the table for a century</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_320233246.html</link>
  <description>Many opponents who are grasping for reasons to thwart health care reform are now asking, &#8220;Why are we rushing such massive reform through Congress?&#8221; Rushing through health care reform? Are they serious?</description>

 <title>Bartlett knows throwing money at a problem doesn&#8217;t work</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_319210741.html</link>
  <description>There have been few in Washington, as of late, with the foresight of Congressman Bartlett. He has stood in stark contrast to his colleagues on both sides of the aisle, who have been determined to spend like there&#8217;s no tomorrow. </description>

 <title>Former governor should think before running for office again</title>
  <link>http://www.times-news.com/letters2/local_story_319210651.html</link>
  <description>Running for governor is an intensely personal decision for you and your family, and no one &#8212; Republicans or Democrats &#8212; should fault you for taking the time to consider your prospects in 2010. </description>
