Opinion Line Extra (Feb. 19)

The New York Yankees should not allow their tremendous history to be tarnished by allowing A-Rod to wear the beloved pinstripes. Winning at all cost could cause a lot of people to leave their team.

Whenever I see people taking a smoke break outside in the freezing cold, I think to myself: “Those people are not very smart.”

It’s pretty much an exercise in futility to complain about the misuse of the handicapped-accessible parking slots. There’s a too-large segment of society that seems to take pleasure in ignoring laws and rules.

I’m telling you now that if pot is legalized, we’ll create thousands of drug addicts. Same as when I told you that if we legalized gambling, we’d create zillions of compulsive gamblers. Wait – never mind.

Why do we not have a White History Month? Would that be racist?

Scott Walker’s academic records have been run through with the fine comb. Now let’s have a look at President Obama’s records.

Gov. Sam Brownback had better get those gas taxes raised or else he’ll have nothing. Kansans will continue driving to Oklahoma and Missouri for a fair chance at gaming, so why not bring some booze and smokes back with you? Oh, and be sure to fill up before you return.

The far left is demonizing Chris Kyle. But he was a very brave Navy SEAL who did his job, and did it exceptionally well. He saved the lives of many good Americans. Beyond that, one wonders how his family feels upon hearing the smears. Some critics have no shame.
