Mediaboss Marketing

After reading letters by Harry Douglass Jr. (Dems & big money,' Dec. 6) and Marlene Haslett (Metcalfe's immigrants insult, Dec. 7) I have to ask: Don't people read what they write? Are they that liberal? Do they not think for themselves?

Mr. Douglass contends a majority of Americans favor gun control, a higher minimum wage, etc. and said he cannot understand why Democrat candidates do not voice those sentiments when running for office.

Does he not know the reason is the liberal media and politicians push these things, but the majority of Americans do not support those agendas? The candidates keep quiet because they want to win.

Ms. Haslett said she supports giving people a chance, but in doing so, she supports criminals. That's what these immigrants are, yet she believes they should be rewarded for breaking U.S. laws?

It's especially interesting to note that she points out that her own grandfather came to this country from Poland and insinuated that he settled here and raised a family here. My guess is her grandfather came here legally as my great-grandfather did. He did not sneak across the border at night like most of these undocumented immigrants and break U.S. laws.

Let's not ignore the truths and laws in our world, but instead stand firm to defend and support our laws and the U.S. Constitution.
