Sometimes I wish we could do to our politicians what a company did to a farmer. Illus: An elderly farmer ...read more

    Christ has been banned from government, kicked out of school, blacked out of the media, but to be replaced by an “X” on His own holiday does not seem appropriate.

Israelis want to control Palestinians and Palestinians resist. Sunnis and Shiites fight for control of Iraq. ...read more
