<title>GazetteOnline.com : Loebsack has earned re-election to Congress</title>
<link>http://oldgo.gazlab.com.php5-15.dfw1-1.websitetestlink.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/2010/03/17/loebsack-has-earned-re-election-to-congress#IDComment62643045</link>
<description>all chidren can be served by most medical facilities ---It&amp;#039;s called &amp;quot;Medicade&amp;quot;   Enough of the emotion-based violin-playing sad-sack letters about Dave Loesack. He was elected because of the Johnson county bleeding heart liberals.   Marian Meeks is a far more qualified candidate, and knows far more about health care in her little than Dave ever will.  Do some research  when are the so-called tloerant open-minded Democrats going to consider a female? Loebsack is a boring college professor.--nothing more.nothing less </description>

<description>Any liberal news outlet would dispute a claim from a conservative article.  It&amp;#039;s how the liberal world revolves.  so you&amp;#039;re really dumb enough to believe Public schools don&amp;#039;t have an abuse problem?  good golly some of you are fricking bizarre </description>

<description>Public Schools and their NYC-based union think they&amp;#039;re &amp;#039;gods&amp;#039;  Ever heard of the Religion of Environmentalism?  Publics schools (tax-payer funded) have far more low-life predators. They also have far more low-lifes who never get caught,  Back in the day I knew two local 16-yr old girls sleeping with teachers/coaches who were married.  On guy had a son older than his victim.  Both cases --they were consentual relationships.  I believe this would be considered statutory &amp;quot;rape&amp;quot; today&amp;quot;  Neither teacher were ever caught, or tried in court.  tax payer dollars at work! </description>

<description>I see the lone &amp;#039;Evangelical guy who wants to boycott Glen Beck&amp;quot; story really has wheels!  Wow..the groundswell for this boycott has really taken hold.  I anticipate the next sensationalized liberal media story --with great enthusiam.  Beck to be fired any moment!   Can we have a countdown?  Or a deathwatch?  The end of Beck, as we know him?  It&amp;#039;s gripping </description>

<description>Public school abuse is around 5x the rate compared to abuse by priests. The public schools are dangerous with predators galore.   Haven&amp;#039;t you been reading the Gazette regarding Dubuque, Waterloo, Iowa City the last couple weeks? All public school abuses reported involving teachers/coaches </description>

<title>GazetteOnline.com : U.S. has wandered far from Founding Fathers</title>

<description>Most people in lower classes vote Democrat--because they&amp;#039;re promised welfare (that&amp;#039;s the perception), and other social programs---so they remain &amp;#039;lower-class&amp;#039;  Take Wash DC for instance. The Freedom March and other rallies brought up hoards of very poor people, who literally couln&amp;#039;t afford to return to the South afterward. Many stayed in DC.  With Pres. Johnson&amp;#039;s welfare programs, those same people are grandparents and greatgrand parents. 4th-5th generation welfare recipients. All because the Democrats are keeping them poor, useless, and poverty-stricken  </description>

<title>GazetteOnline.com : We need to take climate change seriously</title>
<link>http://gazetteonline.com/opinion/letters-to-the-editor/2010/02/22/we-need-to-take-climate-change-seriously#IDComment58238910</link>
<description>Obama has already marginalized the terms &amp;#039;Marxism&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;socialism&amp;quot; in his recent speeches,  yet there are years of audio and video and written proof that he actually believes in this socialism, or  &amp;#039; collectivism&amp;quot;, essentially the government decides what is right for the people.  It&amp;#039;s evident is his memoirs, in his time as a state legislature, Senator, and now President. It&amp;#039;s all right there for the computer geek to Google--- and read, and see, and listen to.  How much proof do the liberals need ??  oh wait....  Liberals believe this stuff is good for the country.   LOL!!!    nevermind </description>

<description>oh...another VERY annoying thing.  When I go to work out at my gym @ 11:30-noon on a weekday  --wading through retirees that walk around nude, who clog the area, the sauna, and the locker room and converse with other nude retirees.  It&amp;#039;s rude, it&amp;#039;s gross, and they shouldn&amp;#039;t be there during a weekday lunch hour.  why are they there @ noon?  Go at 9AM.  good golly it&amp;#039;s annoying </description>

<description>When I&amp;#039;m retired, I plan on doing my shopping @ 10am and 2pm on the weekdays, plus not organizing a bridge club luncheon for eight friends @ Olive garden @ 12:00 noon, while working people sit on a waiting list to get a table.  Do your fricking errands at other times---and not a weekday lunch hour.  I concur with Nostra.  Very annoying </description>
