  1. Did you forget that we also “kicked God” out of our gun shops, by allowing them to sell weapons used for mass murder? Evidently you believe that we as human beings can legislate God in and out of our lives as we see fit. What an asinine comment.

  2. Simply put, the GOP has mastered the art of political self-destruction.

    Anyone want to buy 50,000 unused "Mourdock For Senate" bumper stickers?

  3. Your final sentence--that the government remained unchanged--is basically correct. However, your letter contains certain fallacies, to wit:
    1. I’ve not heard anyone, even the most unabashed Obama supporters, calling this a landslide. It was a close election by anyone’s accounting.
    2. You want to “not count” the votes cast in New York and California. Instead let’s “not count” the votes in Texas and the rest of the South, which Romney won by several million. If you do that, Obama won the election by five million votes, not two and a half million.
    3. Republicans did NOT win in Congress. They actually had a net loss of two Senate seats, as the Dems saw their majority increase from 51 to 53.

  4. President Obama won 52% of the popular vote and 62% of the electoral vote, so you are clearly implying that the majority of Americans are “stupid”. Your arrogant assumption is the main reason why the Republicans lost the White House and the Senate (again); it’s because they believe they’re right-- even when the majority of people don’t agree with them!
    November 13, 2012 10:37 am on If you voted for Obama, there's no hope for you
  5. Mr. Ross is simply quoting the most reliable poll figures available at this time and the column is clearly followed with the disclaimer that the article is editorial in nature

    For those of you who are into journalistic hair-splitting, perhaps he'd better of entitled the article "Poll Shows 50.5% of Hoosiers Oppose Social Conservatism, 49.5 % Support It"
    November 02, 2012 8:46 pm on DOUG ROSS: Poll shows social conservatism doesn't resonate in Indiana
  6. I don't know, guess it will be an issue that, unfairly or not, will follow Romney to his grave. Just like Obama's citizenship, religion, college records and so on and so on
    September 28, 2012 1:51 pm on I'm sick of hearing about Romney's income tax returns
  7. The issue raised by this letter has nothing to do with Mr. Chocola’s policies, which he has every right to express. It is, however, the responsibility of the press to fully disclose all of the facts to their readers. In this case, it bears mentioning that Mr. Chocola lost his Congressional seat to Mr. Donnelly in 2006. If the reader thinks that has no bearing on Mr. Chocola’s column, then so be it; but they deserved to be informed of it.

    Evidently the editors of The Times agree or they wouldn’t have printed the letter clarifying this point.

  8. All right, I admit it; I AM lazy. Anyone who has nothing better to do with their time then write letters to the editor must be a deadbeat.
    I wouldn't exactly consider myself an Obama "supporter", but given the alternative, well....

  9. Oh my God! He took time to go on a talk show!? Disgraceful. I even heard that last week HE WATCHED A FOOTBALL GAME ON TV!! That’s right, the world in turmoil and our President has time to watch a football game. I’m sure that if Romney is elected he will spend 24/7 thinking about ways to solve the world’s problems, without even taking time to go to the restroom.
    September 24, 2012 2:49 pm on World is in turmoil, yet Obama responds to Letterman
  10. Larry,

    I am the writer of the letter you refer to in your first paragraph. First of all, I am an Independent voter, not a Democrat. Secondly, in retrospect, I regret using the word “Islamic”. In this case, Murdoch’s rhetoric merely suggests extremism and is not necessarily motivated by any religious beliefs.

    Any time I suggest to my Republican friends that their political leaders have become increasingly partisan in their actions, their response is similar to yours; that the Democrats do the same thing. This type of circular logic is why this country is currently mired in the political and economic quagmire it is.

    Sad, isn't it?
