Rove Is Right

By Rich Lowry   It was inevitable that attacks on Hillary Clinton would be deemed sexist. We now know that they will be called ageist, too.

Soldiering on

By Lynette Sowell   I see you sitting over there in the corner, drinking your morning coffee and waiting for your breakfast to arrive at the table. You’re old, old as my dad, or maybe a little older. Since when do soldiers get old? But, you do.

Four tornadoes enough introduction for me

By Willis Webb   An area of Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri is unofficially known as Tornado Alley. They should’ve added Texas as far as I’m concerned but I’m okay if I never meet another twister. One of nature’s most suddenly appearing and destructive forces is the tornado.

Hope for the best

By Renae Brumbaugh   My phone lit up with a text message. “Call when you can.” Nothing unusual about the message; it was the sender that got me. An old friend, who I talk to only rarely. Immediately, my mind went to the worst possible place it could go. She has bad news, I thought. Who died?

Everyone’s getting their lawns and gardens in order and sometimes I feela little envious of all that green, as I drive past homes. You know the ones I mean.

A hero for the ages

By Rich Lowry   Jeremiah Denton, the Vietnam War POW who died in March at age 89, uttered one of the great statements of defiance in American history. In 1965, he was shot down in his A-6 during a bombing run over North Vietnam.

What’s news?

By Lynette Sowell   When you’re a kid, one of the first disappointments you learn is that the world is not very impressed with anything big that happens in your little world. I think that’s true now more than ever. I still remember the “So?
