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.By Darrel Moe , February 09, 2010
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.By Phil Reisenauer , February 09, 2010

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.By Lois Undseth , February 07, 2010
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

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.By Vasantha Soori , February 07, 2010

More pettiness from Democrats
