The first debate between Romney and Obama reminded

Representative Thornberry visited the newspaper this week and commented that while our troops have to deal with different tribes in Afghanistan, Congress has to deal with different tribes in the U.S.

Some U.Wholesale authenticmonclerjackets,Semi precious agate gemstone beads,S. tribes watch Fox News, some watch MSNBC, etc. Well, my tribe watches PBS and tunes in to NPR. The Lehrer News Hour, Washington Week in Review, Bill Moyers plus others offer what seems to me the best source of unbiased news with very little commercial interruption.

Their children's programs are excellent. They can do this because they are funded by various foundations, by viewers and by the U.S. government.Order high quality replicawatches at home. Romney wants to do away with this. What a loss!

The first debate between Romney and Obama reminded me of a lesson I learned early in my teaching career.Top Swiss Replicas and the most popular brands of authentics. I had explained a concept in chemistry and a student raised his hand to offer an animated presentation of an idea that occurred to him using this concept. It was a clever idea, but it was dead wrong.

I didn't want to embarrass him by knocking down his idea so I just explained very carefully why his idea wouldn't work.

On the test covering that concept the majority of the class gave his idea as an example and thus got no credit.

This made me realize that he who speaks loudest and with the most enthusiasm wins the day.Wholesale and retail cheapairjordansale, I hope President Obama learned the same lesson and will speak enthusiastically with authority at the next debate. Joe Biden did the Democrats proud in his debate with Paul Ryan.

Women voters should remember that Romney called Roe v. Wade one of the darkest moments in Supreme Court history. Romney said he would get rid of Planned Parenthood and let employers decide about a woman's contraceptive coverage. Romney would let insurance companies charge more for women.

He picked Paul Ryan as a running mate. Paul Ryan has advocated tax cuts for the wealthy and doing away with the free contraceptives offered under Obamacare.

It seems to me that the way to cut down on abortions is to have contraceptives readily available. When we visited South Africa there were baskets of free condoms in every restroom.

The recent study in St. Louis showed that when contraceptives were made available at no cost, the number of unintended pregnancies plummeted. Teen pregnancies fell from 36 per 1,000 to 6 per 1,000. The rate of abortions was cut in half.

If you are sincere in wanting to do away with abortion you have to be in favor of no cost contraceptives.

This is only one money saving deal in Obamacare. Another is no cost yearly physicals that allow doctors to discover problems early before the treatment gets costly. Don't pooh-pooh Obamacare. We need it!

Seniors should remember that Romney wants to turn Medicare into a voucher program. He tried to make us believe that Obama was going to cut Medicare when the truth is Obama is going to cut waste out of Medicare which is what needs to be done. Romney seemed to try to hide the fact that his plan would not cover those with pre-existing conditions.

Before the debate Romney said he was for cutting teachers. During the debate he said he wants more teachers. His tax plan calls for $5 trillion tax cut even for the wealthy. He denied this in the debate.

Before the debate he said businesses were hampered by too many regulations. During the debate he said he was for regulating business. I wish the compounding pharmacy in Massachusetts that sent out the contaminated steroid pain shots had been more closely regulated. People have died of fungal meningitis because of this lack of regulation.

On the local level, let's keep Barry Mahler as County Commissioner, Precinct 3. He is hard working, intelligent and affable.

We should also keep Lou Murdock as Tax Assessor Collector. When it comes to voting for Judge of the 89th District Court, I have heard disturbing things about the present judge, backlogs with civil cases waiting years to be heard, plea bargains turned down and unfairness and partiality shown toward lawyers and defendants. I suggest you talk to your favorite lawyer before you vote.
