Opinion

Conrad has unfounded ideology

March 30, 2009

Conrad believes that science is not logical and using it as a basis for argument is a problem. Let me repeat that, Conrad thinks science is not logical.

Alcohol laws should be stricter

By By Alicia Williams March 30, 2009

The Combat Meth Act proves electronic I.D. scanning is not an unrealistic scenario. The state of Utah should implement these same standards for all alcohol products purchased, not just for people who look under 35 entering bars.

Now is the time to unite. We live in a time when the size of government is growing at an exponential rate, capitalism is on the brink of extinction and the traditional family is under attack on all fronts. Join us and become a part of the conservative voice that will not be silenced.

Stafford doesn’t belong at U

March 29, 2009

John Stafford ("University system numbs minds," March 23) needs to transfer to Westminster College or basically any other small liberal arts college and his angst will be remedied.

Texting ban should be a wake-up call

By By Aaron Zundel March 29, 2009

What it does mean is Utah drivers need to take the hint and re-examine their mindset the next time they get behind the wheel. As clichéd as it sounds, you really might save a life8212;or at the very least a headache and a few thousand dollars in body work.

Education stimulus overlooks higher education

By By Sabriel Harris March 26, 2009
