The ‘90s were two full decades ago. That’s as far away from the ‘90s as the ‘70s felt. The ‘80s acted as a 10-year demilitarized zone of mass cocaine use, synthesizers and Ronald Reagan. So what does that mean now? Is there enough distance yet from the 2000-2009 years that lack a catchy title to characterize them?

Our governor, Susanna Martinez, is one of the most likable public figures in the Republican Party. For a party that has lost its way with women, Hispanics, moderates and many others, Governor Martinez seems a God-send.
I appreciate Don Schrader’s loud voice against violence. What I don’t appreciate is his use of opinion as fact. There has been no illegal occupation by Israel.
