Re: “Conyers to monitor staff”, Dec. 30.

I found your headline “Conyers to monitor staff” amusing since it is his staff that turned him in for ethical misconduct. Shouldn’t your headline read: staff to monitor Conyers?

THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE?

Re: “U.S. panel rejects a delay for Prop 2”, Dec. 30.

George Washington, an attorney for the pro-affirmative action group By Any Means Necessary had the nerve to call a federal appeals court’s ruling against delaying the implementation of Proposal 2 an “arrogant opinion”. To me, the height of arrogance is in trying to block and undermine the expressed will of the people of Michigan.

Upon reading “Military weighs adding more noncitizen soldiers”, Dec. 28, I was reminded that a big factor in the downfall of the Roman Empire was reliance on armies populated primarily by non Romans.
