Bolton: Why put weight of obesity in SC just on food stamp recipients?
If Gov. Nikki Haley’s hopes to unshackle South Carolina from the grip of obesity, a paternalistic approach that singles out poor people by prohibiting them from using food stamps to buy sodas and chips isn’t enough. We need a comprehensive strategy...

Wednesday letters: Jolie provides women an option
I was a child when my mother told me she had breast cancer. She explained that she was going to have an operation and that when she came home from the hospital, her breasts would be gone. My reply haunts me to this day: “That’s OK, mom; just don...

Monday letters: We need truth about Benghazi
The fact that the woman who wants to be our next president royally screwed up by not providing adequate protection for our people in Benghazi is a big story. Add to that the fact that no help was sent to rescue our people during the attack, and then a coverup was begun by President Obama and Secretary...
