A Middletown Pioneer Cemetery vandalism editorial laments repeated desecrations of veterans graves on First Avenue. It cites old fence, funding gaps, and city budget limits, urging a locked fence and community action to protect about 7,000 graves and restore stones. It calls for grants and fund raising to landscape and secure the historic site.
The piece traces mid cycle redistricting by Texas Republicans to Georgia moves endangering two Democrats. It notes Democrat responses led by Steny Hoyer and calls for reform, including Schwarzenegger’s plan to use retired judges and a national standards law to curb partisan line drawing. It argues redistricting firms polarization and reduces electoral competition.
The piece argues a straightforward 0.5 to 1 percent payroll tax increase could balance Social Security for 75 years. It questions political resistance to tax hikes, notes business backing for private accounts, and dismisses demographic fears with a tongue in cheek age-related calc.
Max Boot argues that the 2003 Iraq invasion catalyzed a regional shift toward democracy. He cites Iraq’s Jan 30 elections, Palestinian and Lebanese changes, Saudi municipal vote, and Mubarak promising multi candidate polls, asserting the era of reform began with Baghdad.
