Only a fool calls it surrender
Finally, some debate over U.S. war policy in Afghanistan. Or at least debate over George F. Will’s call to pull the plug on U.S. war policy in Afghanistan, headlined “Time to Get Out of Afghanistan.” The negative response from conservatives was revealing.

Other views: Economy will fuel the debate on health care

Other views: New plans need more real debate
If there has been a pattern in national politics this year, it has been a rush to enact far-reaching legislation without due deliberation.

The same was true of the “cap and trade” pollution bill approved recently by the House of Representatives.By Minot Daily News , July 13, 2009

Pharmacy brought out the best, worst in the process
Months of heavy lobbying, television advertising and pressure on lawmakers ended last Friday with a thud. The much-publicized pharmacy ownership bill (HB 1440) died on the House floor. North Dakota will be keeping its unique requirement that pharmacies must be 51 percent owned by registered pharmacists.By Rep. Merle Boucher, Rolette, N.D. , February 23, 2009
