Editor, I feel compelled to respond to Ahmad Musleh's letter in Thursday's Daily Lobo, since I fear many who only listen to the politically correct media fail to grasp the true perniciousness of Muslim terrorism. Sunni Muslims are savagely killing Shiite Muslims.
Editor, This letter is in response to Nahum Castillo's letter in Thursday's Daily Lobo, titled "Bush supporters blinded by their idea of patriotism." By calling Bush supporters blind, Castillo is demonstrating the hypocrisy that is a prerequisite to the liberal belief system.
by Tom Angell Daily Lobo guest columnist As college students around the country prepare for midterms, thousands of potential classmates don't have that opportunity, because of a federal law that strips financial aid from people with drug convictions. The policy is being reconsidered as Congress renews the Higher Education Act for the first time in seven years.
Editor, I just had to react to Jessica Del Curto's review of the new Atmosphere album in Wednesday's Daily Lobo. When I threw this album in my CD player, I must admit that I too was hoping for something better than Seven's Travels, which was a damn disappointment.
by Chris Narkun Daily Lobo President Bush on Thursday gave his most recent defense of his Iraq policy. It's necessary because his approval rating on Iraq policy is hovering in the 30s and because Americans more than ever want to know how and when we plan to leave.
Editor, In response to Colin Donoghue's column in Tuesday's Daily Lobo, "Voting still a murky affair," Donoghue has adequately pointed out many of the symptoms we are regularly faced with in our sick electoral system. In fact, it is fairly indisputable that the United States has one of the worst records in the world among countries that practice open elections as far as our ability to count votes correctly and the extent of our restrictions on who we let vote.
Editor, This letter is in response to Jason Darensburg's ill-informed and rather naive letter from Thursday's Daily Lobo in which he attacks a letter that was written by Rebekah Casey. I feel the need to correct and expand on a few of the points Darensburg tried to make.
Editor, I feel it a little unfair that I am picking on Larry Crum twice in as many months, but it appears that I will have to do it until he submits a legitimate argument. In this case, in his letter in Wednesday's Daily Lobo, Crum found it offensive that there was a peer group offering mentoring services for people of color.
by Lucinda Ulrich Daily Lobo columnist Ever seen that bumper sticker - the one that asks something like, "What if the military had to hold a bake sale to buy bombs?" The one that makes you think while waiting for the light to change, in a moment of self-indulgent, no-holds-barred, bleeding-heart liberal abandon, "Yeah, what if?" The rose colored fantasy fades into the desert sand as you race toward your next destination.
Editor, Recently, on one of my trips through campus, I picked up and read a brochure from the group Peer Mentoring for Graduates of Color. This appears to me to promote reverse discrimination. The words "of Color" in the title is not only unnecessary, but conjures up the idea that those other than minorities need not apply.
Editor, After reading the end of end of Rebekah Casey's letter on Monday, I couldn't help but write this letter. She told student Brian Fejer that "You may lick the hand of fanatic Islam that hates you - and may your chains rest lightly upon you." Why such a powerful lie against a peaceful religion with more than a billion followers? Casey seems to be fond of Vladimir Lenin's idea: "A lie told often enough becomes the truth.
Editor, I am writing in response to Rebekah Casey's letter in Monday's Daily Lobo titled "Self-pitying liberals distort Bush's fight for democracy." As a self-pitying liberal, I took exception to several of her statements and thought I might offer a few points of clarification.
Editor, I am writing in response to Rebekah Casey's letter, published on Oct. 3, 2005. Casey states that America under the Bush Doctrine has brought freedom to the women of Iraq and Afghanistan. Leaving the complex and still uncertain experiences of Iraqi women aside for the moment, I would like to point out that the so-called Bush Doctrine has done little to bring freedom to the women of Afghanistan.
