Politicians won't fight for us, so we must fight
Dear editor,
So now we’re in the midst of the next presidential election.
Just like always, the candidates are pigs. Nothing but thieves and liars out to make more money for their pals and themselves. They’re bought and paid for by the extremely wealthy. They help the rich get richer and let the poor get poorer without even thinking twice. Hell, the bastards probably actually believe that they’re good men.
That is the nature of a madman I suppose. They never realize how truly mad they actually are.
It’s sometimes hard for me to believe things are actually this bad and that people are willing to commit such atrocities knowing damn well they’re hurting people. So I wonder to myself quite often if things will ever get better. Will someone come along and change it all? Will someone make the entire world, especially the USA see how misguided they’ve been?
I hope so, because I fear that if someone doesn’t change things, we’ll all revert to a state of savage existence.
Maybe that someone is you. Maybe, or better yet hopefully, it isn’t too late to find out. It isn’t too late to see real American patriots step up and do what they know must be done to make the American dream a REAL dream, not just some concept that died years ago on some unknown battlefield or in the hearts of a long lost generation.
Reach deep within. Find your dormant inner American warrior that would rather die than be told how to live, what to think, what to eat or drink. Rise and stand for true liberty and the real pursuit of happiness.
Fight for what is yours. If you don’t, who will?
Jesse Caulder,
Weatherford

NOW HEAR THIS: ‘What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate’
This famous quote addressing communication failure is a classic line from the 1967 movie “Cool Hand Luke,” starring Paul Newman. Strother Martin, who played the role of the warden in a southern prison, would use this phrase every time he gave Luke a good whack with his baton. The concept resonated so well with moviegoers that it was voted No. 11 of the 100 all-time favorite movie quotes according to the American Film Institute.

TISCIONE: Woe for calling evil good
You don’t often see “woe” used in an article. It’s a word that has fallen out of usage in our day. But it’s a word that ought to be understood and taken seriously.

Letters to the Editor – May 15, 2013
I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks to the slobs, idiots and inconsiderate people who continually decorate the beautiful Texas landscape with their trash. I guess it’s really a form of art with beer bottles and cans, boxes, plastic drink containers, food packaging and just about anything else you can think of. It just doesn’t appeal to me. Thank you.

NOW HEAR THIS: Not by the hairs of my chinny chin chin
I had never really considered this possibility, but every one of the Three Little Pigs was almost certainly a guy. I know that assumption is not particularly popular from an equal opportunity standpoint, but the fact is fairly certain. How do I know? They all three had hair on their chinny chin chins.
