|
| Iraq question not the big issue January 23, 2008 at 12:45 pm One of the big issues in this Presidential campaign should be our foreign policy. But just about all the candidates have said on the subject so far has been to get our troops out of Iraq or let them remain. |

|
| Recycling needs to be part of our future December 20, 2007 at 9:22 am It makes sense to recycle materials that can be reused instead of dumping them in a landfill as trash. It won’t clutter up the landscape. |

|
| Chaisson should make good Senate president November 14, 2007 at 2:30 pm It looks like St. Charles Parish will be well represented in the upcoming session of the state legislature. Dem. Sen. Joel Chaisson II apparently will serve as Senate president, having secured the backing of many Democratic and Republican senators and also the endorsement of Rep. Gov. Elect-Bobby Jindal. |
|
| Council takes stand against gambling November 07, 2007 at 11:54 am At one time, St. Charles Parish was a hot spot for illegal gambling in the State of Louisiana. Many of the restaurants and bars along major thoroughfares had slot machines which were very popular among locals and visitors though in violation of the law. |

| Our View October 31, 2007 at 12:30 pm Gov.-Elect Bobby Jindal did not say much about saving the Louisiana coast during the election campaign just past. But there was probably a political reason. |
|

|
| Democracy is better than benevolent dictatorship September 20, 2007 at 8:14 am Some say that a benevolent dictatorship is the best form of government. That is because a dictator who wants to serve the people well can do what he wants without restraints. |
|
| Iraq is teaching us a lesson September 12, 2007 at 1:46 pm Perhaps we learned a lesson in Iraq. We cannot invade another country and expect to make them a democratic friend of ours very easily. |
