| I realize that it is heart-breaking to lose a loved one in a faraway war. I'm a World War II veteran, and I look at it in a way that may be different than most people. I guess I'm a fatalist, but I do believe that life is preordained and... more... |
| The recent win by the GOP in Massachusetts should send a very clear message to the liberals and the Democratic National Committee. The message is: The Republicans are experts and a lot more clever than any liberal might expect them to be at sneaking one... | |
| There is too much griping and complaining all the time about our very nice president. Every day in the news channels, you can see him rushing from one job to another, trying to get as much done as he possibly can. | |
| The closing quote of the Jan. 13 article “Jeff Merkley's health care views bring jeers,” repeats a stereotype that should be laid to rest: that health insurers set out to deny claims. | |
| So you know ... | |
| Children are fighting in a war. The gunshots ring out and children's voices cry out, desperately searching for help, but no one can save their lives. | |
| “Run — Boom— Dive and crawl!” These are the sounds that young children hear when they have been kidnapped from their homes and schools to be put in combat as child soldiers. The sounds still haunt the children after they have been... | |
| Child soldiers: children forced to become soldiers or sex slaves, based on their age and gender. The estimated amount of the unfair use of these children is around 300,000. Those kids lost their happiness, and their childhood. | |
| “Kill her, kill her now or we will kill you!” the commander yells at the 14-year-old boy. He is forced to kill an innocent girl or be killed himself. After being kidnapped from his home, he is forced to fight and kill at the age of 14. Where... | |
| I have some continuing concerns that I thought I should share with you and the rest of Roseburg. There are more than 500,000 child soldiers and that number is growing in many places around the world. They are all under the age of 18. We need to put a... | |
| All around Africa, children are being forced to be soldiers at a very young age. They have to carry guns, go on lookout or spy, sometimes they even have to hurt or kill people. It is not healthy for them. | |
| More than 500,000 children under the age of 18 have been recruited, by various means, into armies around the world. Most are abducted or purchased to fight. Some of the children are as young as seven. At the age of ten, these children are forced to pick... | |
| 2010 — a new year. Looks like we made a change in Massachusetts. Only time will tell if Mr. Brown lives up to his campaign promises or if he falls prey to his colleagues. | |
| The global warming nay-sayers need to do a little research. It doesn't matter that it's 30 below in North Dakota, or that freezing temperatures are threatening Florida's citrus industry. | |
| Last week, another quake of unprecedented magnitude shook and shocked the Democratic party with the “vote heard round the world,” and thoroughly rocked the blue bastion state of Kennedy (Massachusetts). Although the epicenter was in Boston,... | |
| I'm getting a little tired of hearing about all the jobs being created or saved by Obama's stimulus (taxpayers) money. Even the liberal AP found tens of thousands of errors in the White House figure of 640,000 jobs credited to the stimulus,... | |
