Every now and again, both during and after his two-term presidency, Bill Clinton espoused sound immigration thoughts that focused on the nation’s best interests. Most recently, Clinton, without naming Joe Biden, took direct aim at the sitting president’s open border fiasco. On a CNN podcast, and in response to a question about economic migrants who are, in the host’s description, “gaming” the asylum system, Clinton replied that “there’s a limit” at which point open borders will cause “severe disruption.” Clinton added that the established immigration protocols, presumably a reference to the traditional agencies that assist incoming immigrants, function on the assumption that border conditions would “be more normal.” Severe disruption may be the kindest way to describe the chaos in the Rio Grande Valley and other entry points along the Southwest border. And severely disrupted is an understatement to define the conditions in sanctuary cities New York, Chicago and Washington, D.C., where the mayors are grappling unsuccessfully to accommodate the migrants that Texas and Florida governors Greg Abbott and Ron DeSantis send north.

Dear Editor, Some liberal public school graduates are now saying men can get pregnant! Anybody out there for school choice? Vouchers? “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” (Romans 1:22)..

I’ve been thinking about airplanes because I will be flying again for the first time since COVID came into our lives. Modern airliners are incredibly complicated machines, and the engineering required to lift a 700,000-pound jet off the ground is mind boggling. The amount of work that goes into designing, building, and testing a new plane is so massive it can take a decade or longer.

Dear Neil: Someone told me I would like the smaller-flowering pansies better than the types with large blooms. Why would they say that? Much of it depends on how and where you will use them.

For the last several presidential election cycles, media messaging has been consistent: candidates who capture the Hispanic vote will win. The suggestion, often unstated, was that GOP candidates need to promote an illegal alien amnesty, pledge to curtail interior enforcement and promote expanded immigration. In 2022, however, Hispanics could indeed hold the key to a GOP victory, but not because they endorse amnesty.

Dear Editor, Atheistic, secular, humanist educators believe atheistic, humanist education is the cure and solution for America’s problems. May I gently and courteously remind you the atheistic, humanist non-Christian Nazis in Germany under Hitler were the most highly educated country in the world in the 1930s and 1940s.
