Editor: Hey; who needs this "Congress’ Attorney General” candidate, particularly at this time? How about someone with a little "Brass" in his spine? Where is President Bush on this? Is he not listening???? I'd pull this guy so darned fast his "Skivvies" would still be in the laundry!! Bob Langelius, White Plains, NY


Editor: Your “Congress’ Attorney General” mentions at the end that as a weakened president, George W. Bush might be subject to pressure from Michael Mukasey. Weakened president? Before he leaves office, his popularity will soar because he has done great work; yes with a few mistakes but his greatness will be recognized. He is face to face with nuclear war and he will stand fast and show the world. He has the power of truth and that is the best asset. Braincelli


Editor: “Congress’ Attorney General” is another excellent, well researched and factual article. It's full of information I've not seen reported anywhere. Makes me wonder who is advising President Bush. Sincerely, Rich Byman


Editor: Regarding Joseph Morris’ “Embarrassing Gore News,” have Al Gore or any of his fellow liars explained why GLOBAL WARMING has been going on since the last ice age, 10,000 years ago? Was it prehistoric SUV's? Wedgethread


Editor: It's too bad that the correct information in Joseph Morris’ “Embarrassing Gore News” does not get through to the major networks who are still promoting Gore's lies. I don't think they (major networks) would tell the truth even if it were to their advantage. Keep up the good work. ME


Editor: Regarding Joseph Morris’ “Embarrassing Gore News” do you know that in 1925 there was a terrible 18 month draught in Georgia and South Carolina? The Savannah River almost dried up. In 1930 there was the Dust Bowl. The Missouri River almost dried up and the farmers lost their farms. In 1934 there were terrible floods with 105 degrees in northern cities in July—and no air conditioning. In 1938 there was the worst Hurricane season on record. There were no satellites to see storms at sea that bothered no one. Now where were the greenhouse gasses then? There were none. So how can they claim today’s weather is caused by C02 when it is an identical situation of that time period of 1925 through 1938? This information should be thrown in their face over and over again to SHUT THEM UP. Lowell Jarrett, Hendersonville, NC


Editor: Have you considered sending Joseph Morris’ “Embarrassing Gore News” to Bill O'Reilly of FOX NEWS? I think it's something in which he would have great interest. M. A. Hoban


Editor: Dennis Avery’s “Chesapeake Sinking?” brings to mind that when I was in high school in New Jersey, I was told there was good news and bad news about New Jersey. The good news was that it was sinking into the Atlantic Ocean. The bad news was that the rate was less than an inch per year. It would appear that the same thing applies to the Chesapeake. M. Ryan


Editor: SHALOM. I was shocked by S.T. Karnick’s “Boys Will Be Girls” article on the extensive feminization of men that we have reached today. What an atrocity to boys and all folks in our and the following generations. I pray the USA turns around and prevents the next ' Sodom and Gomorrah ' judgment by our Creator on this sinful rebellious nation. It seems like most TV and movies, and music should be boycotted as well as those companies and individuals who promote them. Kay Levitan , MN


Editor: I agree with S.T. Karnick in “Boys Will Be Girls” that the war against males has already resulted in disaster and will lead to more in the future. All of this results from an ideological commitment to sexual equality in every way. Thanks for your observation and article. Blessings, Jakob Heckert


Editor: I just finished reading your “Biased Hollywood Ten Tales” by Spencer Warren. I found the article to be a terrific review of just how insidious bias can be smoothed over and fed to unsuspecting viewers. I felt this was an outstanding article exposing the obvious bias of America's leftists. I am an avid old movie watcher. I am by no means a buff or capable of spewing out facts. I just love old movies. Ever since TCM came on the air, I have watched many, many movies. When it was announced Ted Turner had acquired the library of films, there were articles about fears he would ruin the library or colorize films the Directors intended to be shown only in black & white. That issue simply does not bother me. However, over the years I have listened to the babble of Robert Osborne and selected to flip channels until the movie I want to watch has already started. I feel no need to listen to Osborne pontificate "his" feelings and interpretations. And, by his comments, I highly suspected he was communicating an agenda and not facts related to the movies. Thanks for this article and its observations. Bias in America will cause us untold harm as those seeking to end this constitutional democracy use all sorts of ploys to undermine our system and nation. Steve Ralston, Columbia, PA


Editor: Regarding David Keene in “Split If Giuliani?” I wish the conservative press (what little there is of it) would stop following the Liberal Media who want either one of the four top candidates to be the Republican nominee. Why do you think these polls are so skewed to Giuliani--- BECAUSE THEY KNOW HE WOULD NEVER GET THE SUPPORT OF THE BASE. I do not want to go to the polls in 2008 and hold my nose to vote. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR GIULIANI AND I AM NOT ALONE. FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE I SIMPLY WILL NOT VOTE. Many women will not vote for Thompson because his wife is so much younger than him. Call it superficial if you would like, but the reality is women resent men who (whether true or not) "dump the old wife for a younger one". Romney is too slick and has changed so often he is not trustworthy and McCain is all for McCain and he hardly is conservative. When Huckabee gets a chance to speak he is on fire and the polls show that. The Conservative press has to start playing him up so that the Liberal media is NOT SHOVING THE LOSERS DOWN OUR THROAT. You have the power to get a good candidate the spotlight he needs, use it. Corinn Dahm, Ph.D.


Editor: I agree with David Keene in “Split If Giuliani?” that if religious/values conservatives split from the Republicans, they are conceding the 2008 contest to Hillary (likely with Obama) for 8 years, with a likely Democratic Congress ready to skewer the American taxpayer. As a recent visitor to in-laws in DC who style themselves "progressives," I learned not only do they oppose any and all Republicans/conservatives, whom they consider religious extremists no better than the Taliban, but also any concept of national defense or traditional identity. They are awaiting Hillary with baited breath, as they expect she'll immediately hire them and together, they'll start turning the US into Sweden/Finland, much "better" and "compassionate" nations than today's America. If the break-aways think their so-called principles are worth abandoning the US to virulent socialists, I have no respect for them. Giuliani is a proven fiscal conservative. He is a proven elected leader and traditional American. He returned $10,000,000 to a Saudi Prince after 911 without any scandal, such as Hillary needed to give back Hsu's contributions--and they came from a man of no visible income. He lowered taxes in NYC 23 times for 20%. He halved welfare from 14% to 7% and put 640,000 onto workfare. He says he'll seal the southern border, and he has proven a man of his word politically. You can always find something wrong with any candidate. A president cannot of his own overturn Roe or change local and state gun laws or reverse the supreme court of Massachusetts and its gay marriage ruling. Giuliani will not allow military humiliation in the Middle East or the kind of Carter economy our Vietnam debacle brought. He may not have a wonderful marital history or always attend church, but these are not reasons to yield the 2008 election to people who want to change the US into a 3rd-rate European socialist dream. Renny Hartmann, Toms River, NJ


Editor: It may be true--as Scott Rasmussen says in “Who Is Conservative?--that the polls show that Fred Thompson "seems" to be conservative to many. However it does not change the fact that Mitt Romney is the most conservative in every aspect of his life. The mainstream media seem to try to find anything they can to say the opposite. But the facts are the facts and Romney is the best thing this country has seen in decades. I and my full extended family and all of my friends see this too be the case. I think there are a lot of politicians who seem to be very scared of a man like Romney, who; throughout his career has a record of taking the time to go through the books and identify everything that is in excess and not in the true interest of the whole. Those individuals who are connected to "earmarking" and "pork barrel spending" have much to fear from a Romney Presidency. They also have to fear the fact that he has always accomplished what ever he has put his efforts towards. I am confident that as time goes on, the masses shall see all of this evidence also, and he will come off triumphant! Timothy Goins and family!


Editor: I’m greatly enjoying ConservativeBattleline Online, which is a very energetic but thoughtful publication, which I know from experience is very hard to accomplish. SK
