Abortion v birth control

Dear Editor,

Tell me what I am missing here. All I hear these days is abortion, abortion, abortion.

Living in Diverse America  

Dear Editor,

In my neighborhood we have a variety of people. We have Democrats and Republicans, Independents, Libertarians, and others. People attend different churches or don’t attend church at all. We have Catholics, Baptists, Pentecostals, Jews, and more.

I haven’t seen anyone out arguing or fighting.

Brean works best under pressure and always speaks in generalities: “Why (war with) Albania? Why not?” Asked about this alleged Albanian crisis, Brean scoffs, “Well, I’m working on that.”
