Letters to the Editor for Sept. 11

My pledge of allegianceI work at a high school in TUSD where every morning we recite the Pledge of Allegiance to our republic. Whether our leader is Barack Obama, Joe Biden, or Donald Trump, it is critical that our allegiance be to our republic, not any individual. Allegiance to an individual is what happens in the Soviet Union, North Korea and Saudi Arabia.

By Mr. Berkman’s logic, every case brought against a Tucson police officer would need to be recused and handled by another office other than the Pima County Attorney merely because County Attorney Laura Conover’s brother is a police officer at Tucson PD. That’s a terrible idea, think about it. There’s no requirement, precedent or justification and all Berkman cites is conjecture, and “what ifs.

Just a word for the amazing commentary presented each Saturday by our own David Fitzsimmons. Too many consider him “just a comic — or comedian.” They are certainly funny guys in many ways, but more importantly they are wise, well informed public servants in their own right.

Our newsroom is growing as we expand the areas we cover: Letter from the EditorWhile other newsrooms in the state cut back their staffing, for the second year in a row we are adding positions. This year, it is about sports coverage. Another move by Chris Quinn that will fail. Why this company even is still operating is mind-blowing to me. For the last decade, Quinn has made decisions that have failed. Time for a new leader. This paper is going all-in on promoting gambling, and covering the...Bengals. LOLOL Ooookay, guys. Poorest, most corrupt city in America, and one of the most violent. Cover the Bengals (!) and push that sports betting. That'll fix everything in Cleveland.

Politico senior editor demands obituaries for pro-Trump lawmakers include their votes to 'overturn election'Politico senior editor Michael Schaffer argued in his latest column that GOP lawmakers' votes to 'overturn' the 2020 election should be included in their obituaries. Make sure the same is done for Democrats. “Every statue and street building has been renamed, every date has been altered. And the process is continuing day by day and minute by minute. History has stopped. Nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” - George Orwell, 1984 Sounds reasonable
