In response to John Prehn ("Let's call it red Republican air," Dec. 17), evidently, in your opinion, the Republicans are responsible for all that ails the world.

You must also think that Republicans live in a different environment than you and therefore do not give a damn about what you have deal with.

Sir, if you drive a car, heat your home, eat, or in other words, live, then you are as much responsible for what happens in the environment as anyone.

Sir, your letter reflects the usual liberal diatribe against conservative thought, but I don't see you offering any suggestions or new ideas to solve problems.

But that is typically liberal, isn't it? You just want government to solve all your troubles.
