Good to see bipartisan support for gay marriage | Letter
It is wonderful to see politicians from both sides of the party spectrum come together to support marriage equality.

Ban on cell phones useless | Letter

When freedom of speech goes too far | Letter
Outside the U.S. Post Office in Bothell Tuesday, there were two men standing outside the door holding “Impeach Obama” signs. At first, I was all for their practice of their right to free speech, I remember seeing the same thing during the Bush Administration. But then I saw the picture of Obama with a Hitler mustache and felt sick to my stomach. Apparently some people don’t know when to keep their sick thoughts in their own heads.

Cain in the Department of Defense: 'truly hilarious' | Letter
I was surprised to see the recent "thought" from Robert Bryce on the Nov. 18 Reporter article about "Baker talks Kenmore with Obama, others" and his disparaging comment that our President was not qualified to be mayor of Kenmore.
