The health care reform battle is sickening. Many members of Congress adore their superlative health care plans, while constituents are dying from lack of insurance or going bankrupt from medical expenses although they actually have insurance.

We, as physicians and experts in breast cancer, agree with the longstanding recommendations of the American Cancer Society for screening mammography, beginning with annual exams at age 40.

What is most striking to me about the Fort Hood shooter coverage is the apparent political correctness in not discussing the suspect’s ability to purchase an assault weapon. President Obama, congressional leaders and the media all seem to have learned that it is politically incorrect to raise the issue.

Re: “Soldiers don’t serve to protect Christianity” (letter, 11-16). It’s this writer’s secular, humanist view that insults American history. My father was also a veteran of the Korean War. He fought for our American way of life, our Christian heritage and his buddies against the secular atheists of North Korea, China and the Soviets.

The Race to the Top initiative proposed by President Obama has serious implications that have not been addressed.
