FOOLISH: Politicians no laughing matter

April Fools is one thing. Disrespect is another. You crossed the line with the front page picture/story of President Obama signing a bill for unlimited alcohol consumption. The people in our country need to quit poking fun at our elected officials. It isn’t a matter of partisanship. It is a matter of supporting our elected officials because they are elected and they are the leaders. How can we expect our country to grow and be strong with constant criticism and bad-mouthing?

Where are the stories of our elected officials doing what is appropriate, wholesome, and good?
