Climate Change vs. Global Warming

San Francisco Chronicle – Letters to the editor – July 20, 2010 Worse than warming Words matter, and it is misleading of The Chronicle to frame “Climategate” as, simply, a “warming debate.” CO{-2} increase in the atmosphere results in multiple climate changes as temperature and air and water currents are affected, resulting in different and [...]

McChrystal Dismissal in Afghanistan

New York Times Letters – 6/24/10 To the Editor: The foreign policy disarray evidenced by the McChrystal affair is a predictable fallout where, once again, we are involved in a war we cannot win.

Solution in Afghanistan?

San Francisco Chronicle Letters to the editor Wednesday, April 7, 2010 The editorial “Karzai: friend or foe?” (April 6) reflects a mind-set that assumes the United States should be occupying and “nation-building” in Afghanistan because the Taliban represents a threat to the United States, when in reality the Taliban is an indigenous, grass-roots Pashtun movement [...]

How to Stop Terrorism

How to stop terrorism – SF Chronicle 12/30/09 The Chronicle misses the mark in its attempt “to speak the truth” about stopping terrorism (Editorial, Dec. 29).

Dear Editor: Political reality (that is, our pay to play system) requires compromise, but where does the drug industry get off charging outrageously high non-competitive drug prices, undermining the social good of providing universal health care ["White House Affirms Deal on Drug Cost" 8/6]?   If socialized medicine is so terrible for the injured and sick, [...]
