The American Spectator

I am not voting for the Republican Governor because his answer to the illegals is to say it is a federal problem. Well my school tax dollars are not going to the “federal” government and our schools are being over run and he had many special sessions over school funding.

p>Give me a REAL choice and I am not stuck in the Republican column. As it stands now the Democrats would all just give our country over to the U.N. and have an open border. So just what choice do I have, not vote or vote for the lesser of two evils? br> — Elaine Kyle /p> p> SMILE FOR ME br> Re: Diane Smith’s letter (under “If It Be Real”) in Reader Mail’s Tough Talk : /p>

How delightful to hear from Diane Smith again. If it be real, it be Diane Smith! I know I’ll be careful for whom I volunteer to hold a door.

Only seen a couple of your letters the past few months, Diane. My wife and I look for them every day. We love your wit. And, you’ve evidently educated most all of the contributors, as I see “spot on” in use in several pieces. See, you have a following!

p>Keep ‘em coming! br> — Mike Showalter br> Austin, Texas br> P.S. And yes, I’d still love to get that fruitcake, or at least the recipe with ALL your secret ingredients. Getting close to that time of year, and too, I’d like to get this ‘bug’ out of my ear, if you know what I mean. I think she wants to make one for one of our family br> holiday meals. Help, Diane, help! /p> p> SURRENDER CENTRAL br> Re: Jed Babbin’s Islamic Brownshirts : /p> p>Don’t overlook Belgium, which to me is more of a front-line surrender state than France. It may be easy to overlook because of its size. Its role as European Union capital has gone to its head. It has become the self-conferred “moral” capital. br> — T. Garvey /p>
