Letters to the editor
Decades-old homage to moms still rings true To the editor: My father, R.B. Vail, owned and published The Baldwin Times from 1921 to 1941. In May 1930, he wrote the enclosed clipping, honoring mothers everywhere, and paying tribute to three mothers who...
What's wrong with saving money?
I am the co-chair of the Edinburg Bond Oversight Committee (BOC) and I would like to respond to a letter opposing the bond. For many years, I agreed totally with Mr. Feliciano. His complaints were valid, and that is why I decided to become involved to...
An observation on the U.S. credit crisis
On credit: We were walking on water; suddenly the miracle ended, and reality returns. Now we have to swim to the edge, if we can, or drink lots of water. Dry yourself and try to walk on solid ground. Respectfully, Justin VernierMcAllen...
This Saturday, vote the Pharr First team
Pharr can no longer afford the three R's of failed leadership. That is the reason why I voted for the Pharr First candidates: Oscar Elizondo Jr., Eduardo Cantu, and Bobby Carrillo. We should be doing everything we can to turn our Pharr economy around...

Federal aid too often a rescue, not a reward
I guess an issue does not surface until it hits close to home. Recently, I experienced - at least so far - the most ironic situation in my life. Since I am getting ready to send my first-born off to college, I am making my way through the nation's college...
Welcome to the elites’ land of play, pretend
I want to play the elite game of "pretend" just this once. So, let's pretend that we were wise to suspend the construction of nuclear power plants and oil refineries 30 years ago. Pretend that it was smart to restrict those nasty old oil companies from...
Letter to the editor
Hot cars and dogs don't mix To the editor: To the person or persons who left their new puppy in their white Chevrolet Silverado truck outside JC Penney's east exit at the La Plaza Mall on Sunday, early afternoon: Your puppy was in your truck barking...
Letters to the editor
‘Volunteer' status doesn't apply to U.S. military To the editor: Why is the government so adamant that all military personal are volunteers? That is a bold-face lie. I am tired of arguing with other people that keep saying it is an all-volunteer...
