More storage capacity needed

It was gratifying to see in Wednesday’s (Feb. 3) Forum an item from the Wild Rice Watershed District advocating for retention facilities on the tributaries to the Red River.

Be wary of slick conservatives

I doubt I would get much of an argument from my conservative friends in proclaiming Ronald Reagan a true champion of conservatism by ushering in an era of low taxes and deregulation.

Cramer’s flips make one dizzy

All of the erratic statements coming from U.S. House candidate Kevin Cramer are starting to make me dizzy.

North Dakota's prosperity is Republican

In a letter to the editor Jan. 24, Bruce Hagan of Bismarck asked how you pay for necessary programs, reduce America’s deficit and debt and cut taxes.

Columnist needs to chill a bit

It is hard to know where to begin to respond to Jane Ahlin’s commentary on Jan. 31. She is obviously attempting to discredit everything about the Super Bowl ad featuring Tim Tebow and his mother, Pam.

Day is coming when the truth will triumph

Kudos to The Forum and columnist Jane Ahlin (Jan. 31) for conveying to us precisely the No. 1 reason why the pro-life movement is gaining ground across America, namely, the complete lack of substance behind the ideals of left-wing liberalism.

By Bob Brown , February 07, 2010

Ahlin is wrong about pro-lifers

In her Jan. 31 column, Jane Ahlin states: “Folks who want to end all abortion avoid the complexities of problem pregnancies and instead, vacillate between threats/bullying and happy talk, while pushing into every facet of American life.”

By Jeff Bozovsky , February 07, 2010

What better day for family issue?

I take issue with Jane Ahlin’s column (Jan. 31) titled: “Coming soon to a Super Bowl game near you: abortion issue.” She criticizes the decision of “the CBS mucky mucks” to allow a pro-life commercial sponsored by Focus on the Family.

By Victor Balke , February 07, 2010

Abortion is about the culture of life

In response to Jane Ahlin’s commentary on Jan. 31: I submit to you that the issue of abortion is a cultural issue and not a political one.

Gov. John Hoeven really a Marxist

I have been reading political letters and blogs from across the state wondering if Gov. John Hoeven is really a conservative deep down.

By Cory Christofferson , February 07, 2010

More pettiness from Democrats

Another Democratic Party- generated attack letter aimed at Gov. John Hoeven is making its way into the papers.
