Editorial: "Congress should enforce ethics"

Duh. So where has the unnamed Courier editor been for the past six years? Head down, grazing in a Fox News salad, that's where.

Meta: Why is this headlined differently on the free site and the print edition? And why, on the free site, are the editorials not showing up anywhere without doing a specific search?

  1. Many others? Where? Yo, there is nothing we in Prescott can do about congressional term limits. Give it a rest, it is out of our control. We get the point: You think term limits would solve corruption in congress. I think you are so far wrong that John Wayne just lost his cowboy hat. Check this: if a member of congress knows he only has a limited time, then the corruption begins sooner and only gets bigger. Term limits would create more corruption because the participants would have less time to get 'their palms greased.' Why don't you fight a battle you can win and have some impact on instead of taking a stand on what would only make Washington more corrupt. jared

  2. The editorials are on the home page with the letters, below the news.

  3. I know they're supposed to be there, and I occasionally find them there, but usually not, at least by the time I'm done blogging in the morning.

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
