In Monday’s letters, readers write in about Republicans in California government: how much of the current budget crisis in Sacramento is the GOP’s fault? Many writers say Republicans are entirely to blame, but Debbie Clark, of Burbank, begs to differ:
We ridicule ultra-conservative Republicans such as Tom McClintock when they argue for not increasing taxes, or cutting back or cutting off funds for various budget items. And then the Times chimes in crying out for some good ol’ Republican responsibility.... The Republicans have become the whipping boy of California and this should stop immediately.
Also, why civilization peaked in the 1980s and why 18-year-olds should be able to drink (legally, that is.)
