  • article The Vent: May 4

    Sunday, May 5, 2013 11:09 am

    “The richest American company Apple is going to borrow billions & billions to run the company, probably from themselves because you don’t have to pay taxes on borrowed money. While a venter worries about the homeless defecating and urinating in Mesa. When is congress going to stop these wealthy corporations from defecating and urinating on America.”

  • article Poll claims Flake among least-favorite senators after gun-bill vote

    Thursday, May 2, 2013 6:47 am

    WASHINGTON -- Sen. Jeff Flake’s vote against expanded background checks on gun sales earlier this month caused his approval ratings to drop, making him one of the “most unpopular” U.S. senators, a new poll says.

  • Flake Fallout

    Arizona Republican Sen. Jeff Flake, right, voted against a measure that would have expanded background checks for gun buyers, a proposal that was pushed by former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, far left, a Democrat who was wounded in a 2011 mass shooting in Tucson. Among those also pictured: Former Giffords staff Ron Barber (pictured at Giffords' right), now a U.S. Congressman from Southern Arizona; Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz (between Barber and Flake) -- also the chair of the Democratic National Committee; Vice President Joe Biden (behind Wasserman Schultz); Speaker of the House John Boehner (behind Barber).

  • article Letter: Supposed White House call for Missouri name list a test

    Sunday, April 28, 2013 2:51 pm

    I now believe, because of what happened in Missouri recently, that expanded background checks are simply a federal back-door universal gun registration perpetrated by the Obama administration. I am totally opposed to it.

  • article Whole-wheat pasta redeemed with chard and cheese

    Sunday, April 28, 2013 6:00 am

    No matter how unimpeachable whole-wheat pasta is in terms of nutritional cred, I've always found it off-putting.

  • article The Vent: April 24

    Wednesday, April 24, 2013 10:12 am

    “The great Obama is in charge of the sequestration. So what does this guy do? He goes to air traffic controllers and lays them off to cause the most inconvenience he can to American travellers. He could have gone to the nonessential personnel they always tell to stay home when there is a major weather event in D.C. This guy is a real piece of work. I can’t believe there are people that actually think he is doing a good job?”

  • article Poll suggests support for McCain in Arizona dwindling

    Tuesday, April 23, 2013 7:00 pm

    A new poll suggests that the state’s senior senator has pretty much worn out his welcome in Arizona, at least as far as representing them in Washington.

  • article Letter: Flake fails his people

    Saturday, April 20, 2013 12:42 pm

    Once again, an Arizona senator has failed to follow the will of the nation but rather serves his pockets and a lobbying group. THE MAJORITY of Americans want some type of gun control. No one is asking to repeal guns... just control the psychotic individuals that can get a hold of weapons.

  • article Letter: Spending should shape country’s current needs

    Friday, April 19, 2013 7:39 pm

    I was surprised to learn from the Friends Committee on National Legislation that 37 cents of every dollar we pay in federal income taxes go to pay for current and past wars. At the same time, education, diplomacy, and help to the nearly 100 million people living in poverty in this country get only pennies on every dollar.

  • Border Bill

  • article Letter: GOP leaders are why the party is suffering

    Friday, April 19, 2013 12:12 pm

    Republican Sens. McCain and Flake have become prime examples of why Republicans are suffering from the “why bother” syndrome when it comes to voting and reason for the GOP going down the tubes. We elect them to represent ‘we the people’ and our principles and what do they do? ‘Turn-tail’ and take the most lucrative way out. Back to ‘what’s good for me’, not for the U. S. of A.

  • article McCain: Immigration plan needs bipartisan approval

    Thursday, April 18, 2013 5:19 pm

    The state's senior U.S. senator said Thursday that eventual approval of a comprehensive immigration plan with Republican votes will enable the GOP to once again compete for Latino votes in Arizona.

  • article Suspicious mail sent to Sen. Flake's Valley office causes brief scare, but no danger found

    Wednesday, April 17, 2013 7:48 pm

    A suspicious letter containing an oily substance that was sent to the Phoenix office of Sen. Jeff Flake caused a brief scare Wednesday before the mail was tested and found to be harmless.
