On June 22, 2012 I submitted a letter regarding the U.S. moving too far to the left. I mentioned how President Obama was promoting the pro-gay agenda worldwide, which I do not believe is his business.
Several responses to that letter stated that is was OK for him to promote the “human rights” agenda. There is nothing wrong with speaking out against “human rights” worldwide and we all know of areas across the globe where people’s rights are severely abused. That is different from taking a specific agenda and making it known that our president is promoting a gay/lesbian/transgender agenda across the globe.
For the life of me I do not know what Obama has done the past nine months except campaign for re-election. He has lied and broken more promisees than he has kept, beginning with saying if he doesn’t turn the economy around in four years he should be a one-term president. I just hope people will remember that this fall.
When the “Adult Video News” trade publication endorsed the Clinton-Gore team, they immediately did all they could to distance their campaign from the endorsement. Most people would assume that the office of president couldn’t fall any further below the sordid days we endured during the impeachment of President Clinton Sadly, the presidency still has a long way to go to reclaim the moral high ground it deserves and so desperately needs.

Goshen should stick with ‘Redskins’
I must respond to the letter to the editor from Mr. Ron Chupp (The Goshen News, May 9). What’s in a name, Mr. Chupp? I too have a Native American heritage, and for some reason, I am not offended by the term Redskins, or brown skins or any other color of skins.

There is hope through God
May I share what happened to me after praying about the issue of whether to have guns carried by school authorities at Goshen High School. While calling out to God, my question was: Why have we as a nation come to trusting in government agencies, such as Homeland Security, rather than obeying the Constitution in what you have declared through our forefathers?

‘Redskins’ nickname is offensive
The question posed (in the May 5 edition) was, “What’s in a Name?” In the case of the GHS (Redskins) mascot, it is insult, degradation, racism, and an ongoing slap-in-the face reminder of the disgusting manner in which my Native American ancestors were treated by Europeans.
