Sound Off for December 5, 2017

Fitting tribute

"Mild in tone, powerful in impact," words used by Mayor Tomlinson to describe banker and leader Frank Etheridge lll. What a nice way to be remembered.

Ricochet effect

The left-wing news media was very diligent in reporting the sex scandals related to Fox News, now they have to deal with the scandals of their own. Karma is hell.

Reality is fluid

Were there more empty chairs at the White House Christmas tree lighting or this year’s Presidential Inauguration? Where is Sean Spicer when you need him?

Two forecasts

Most likely consequences of recent headlines: many more women are put in charge, and the leash comes off ICE agents as the wall gets built.

Familiar prefix

How many more of the Trump/Bannon group will soon wear the title of "disgraced former"?

‘Paid for’? Yep ...

Don’t worry about Democrat Jones being bought and paid for. Worry about Congressional Republicans sticking it to all Americans making under $75K so they can pay back their wealthy donors.

This we know

Although found not guilty for the death of Ms. Steinle, one thing is absolutely certain. If Sr. Zarate had been deported a sixth time, he would not have been on Pier 14 when she was.
