  • Ed Rendell doesn't get it. The Left has nothing in its arsenal except character assassination. Has he not been on the Internet?

  • To the Editor:

    I have had the honor of hearing James B. Comey speak publicly at least five times in the past few years. Without political or media glare, I heard an honest and decent man speak with integrity and candor. In this current situation, if he withheld news or action on the investigation, he would later be characterized as having rigged in favor of one candidate. If he announced news or action, he would be accused of rigging against that candidate.

    He was neither political nor careless in his current action. He has the integrity to put the truth out and let the outcomes of both the investigation and the election fall where they may. He has taken the path of integrity (regardless of personal consequences to himself) when some others would not have done so.

  • Many years ago, an esteemed colleague told me the difference between a moron and an idiot. A moron is someone is who driving slower than you are, while an idiot is someone who is driving faster.

  • The economy is the most important issue for voters.

    Donald Trump would lower taxes on everyone, including businesses, and cut back on business regulations.

    This would encourage U.S. companies to stay here and entice American companies, which have moved abroad, to return home and bring back jobs.

    Hillary Clinton says she would raise taxes and favors more regulations. Such a policy would encourage U.S. businesses to move to other nations where taxes and regulations are less and take our jobs with them. It’s up to the voters.

  • Bicycle 5I had another good month on the bike. Counting today's ride of 34.3 miles (in glorious North Texas sunshine), I pedaled 549.5 miles in October (in 16 rides), which gives me 5,326.8 miles so far in 2016. I should have no trouble breaking my all-time mileage record of 6,205.9 (set in 1990, when I was 33 years old). I may be going through a late-life crisis. When I was 39, I took up marathon running (eventually winning a medal at the Dallas White Rock Marathon). At 59, I'm riding my bike more than ever. Living well is the best revenge.
