The Sun buries Obama scandals

2013-05-22 07:00:00

It looks like this heavily Democratic state's main publication is going to ignore the problems of this administration just like the White House is. What is on the front page of The Sun? is there any mention of Benghazi? The IRS and their illegal actions...

IRS follows Obama's lead

2013-05-20 04:00:00

Of course the president deserves some of the blame. Yes, it's extremely unlikely he ordered the IRS to discriminate against tea party, pro-life or Jewish groups opposed to his agenda (though why anyone should take his word for it is beyond me). And...

Breathless over Benghazi: Republicans can't help overplaying their hand

2013-05-14 03:00:00

Republicans could make an easy hit on the Obama administration by highlighting the State Department's apparent bureaucratic blundering during and after the deadly terrorist attack on the American consulate in Benghazi, Libya, last fall, but they refuse to...

Obama's 'Katrina moment'

2013-05-17 06:05:00

It has been a rough week or so for the Obama administration. From Benghazi to the tapping of reporters' phones to the IRS admitting that it targeted conservative groups for extra scrutiny, the press is in a frenzy, and many are questioning President...

Benghazi cover-up deserves scrutiny

2013-05-13 10:30:00

If what transpired in Congress on Wednesday was not a "real review" of the Benghazi debacle, then tell me what is ("Benghazi deserves real review," May 10)? Are you saying that the Obama administration's prefabricated talking points should be ignored?...

The most famous umbrella since Neville Chamberlain went to Munich

2013-05-18 09:01:00

The public appetite for trivial distraction has always extended to our chief executives. I remember the minor uproar when Lyndon Johnson lifted a beagle by the ears. There was extensive commentary on Richard Nixon's taste for cottage cheese and ketchup....

2013-05-06 19:16:00

Richard E. "Dick" Hug, a prominent businessman and prolific fundraiser for Republican candidates, died Saturday. He was 78. Mr. Hug was the finance chairman for three Maryland gubernatorial campaigns — Ellen R. Sauerbrey in 1998 and Robert L....

Bush was a lousy president

2013-05-06 04:30:00

I am writing response to the letter writer who stated that the policy of forcing banks to give loans to people who could not afford them was pushed by Rep. Barney Frank and Sen. Chris Dodd ("Stop blaming Bush," May 1). The housing bubble burst in 2006-...

Bush deserves the criticism he's getting

2013-05-05 06:30:00

When I read Stanley J. Glinka's recent letter defending the presidency of George W. Bush I wanted to laugh, but it was 6 a.m. and I did not want to wake up my still sleeping wife ("Stop blaming Bush," May 1). Now I know how people like Michele...

The Sun's spin on Bush is never applied to President Obama

2013-05-03 04:30:00

I'm still holding my head after reading your scurrilous diatribe regarding historians' assessment of the presidency of George W. Bush ("Misoverestimating Bush," April 28). How can you write such words with a straight face? Whatever happened to...

Donald M. Cohen, magician

2013-05-12 12:44:33

Donald M. Cohen, a retired credit manager and magician who was known as "Magic Don," died May 1 from a heart attack at his Edgewood home. He was 87. The son of a bar owner and a homemaker, Donald Martin Cohen was born in Baltimore and raised in the city'...

Historians will recognize Bush's strengths

2013-05-02 09:00:00

I congratulate The Sun for grabbing the opportunity of the dedication of the George W. Bush Presidential Library to criticize former President Bush yet again ("Misoverestimating Bush," April 28). Even though the new administration and its biased minions...
