Politics in road maintenance
Sonoran News wishes you and yours a Merry Christmas, a Happy New Year and a prosperous 2014!
The upcoming year will be exciting and voters will have the opportunity to reestablish a council like the previous, competent and honest council and mayor. A recall to recall the slate is in motion and a second PAC has been formed by a supporter of the slate to recall councilmen Ernie Bunch and Thomas McGuire. At present, everyone on council has been listed for recall except the mayor. He is as deserving of retirement as his buddy Adam Trenk.

What will it take?
TPATH – Let me begin with a categorical statement that, given current events and recent political history, can be easily defended: Barack Hussein Obama is a willful, indoctrinated child of the Left with strong Islamic sympathies who is not fit to govern.

Obama is a historic disaster of the first magnitude and, if not restrained, he will see to the irrevocable decline of the country which foolishly elected him, leaving the world on the brink of a conflict — or in the midst of one — whose repercussions cannot be underestimated.

Obamacare should remind us we are not 'subjects,' we are people
The unveiling of the dictatorial debacle that is Obamacare absolutely flabbergasts me. It is stunning on so many levels, but the most shocking aspect of it for me is watching millions of free Americans stand idly by while this man, his minions in Congress and his cheerleaders in the press systematically dismantle our Constitution, steal our money, and crush our freedoms.

Four questions
In response to my recent essay, "Nuremberg Revisited," I received four questions from a reader, Mr. K, – four simple questions that reminded me of the centuries-old Four Questions that we read at the Passover Seder each year. The Passover Questions concern the Why and How Passover is celebrated, and were designed to keep our history alive, get the children involved in learning the lessons of the Jewish Exodus from slavery in Egypt into a life of freedom in our own land, Israel, as well as to enlighten the uninformed guest.
