Buckley or. Buckley discusses the topic of wrongdoing in sexual and non sexual aspects. John Sununu a alleged a apparent Quot wrong doing clearly was non sexual but was it trivial in nature Buckley a comparison of the misuse of Public transportation with an employees personal use of a government company a postage Stamps attempts to show that the former offence is a a actually trivial. However people who succumb to the latter practice May move on to bigger things if the Opportunity presents itself. The latter half of the column delves into the sexual misconduct of certain personalities most notably president Kennedy. Here Buckley is not talking about triviality but rather More serious things. Did president Kennedy have sex in the Lincoln room in the White House with someone other than his wife did this someone else have ties to the mafia and the soviet Union Here one has All the ingredients of a James Bond thriller. What is the connection with this accusation and Sununu a situation obviously there is none and the compari Sion is absurd. Nevertheless one must consider How leaders such As Nero Caligula Henry Viii Warren g. Harding and Adam Clayton Powell or. Fit into the whole picture. It would seem that the Paramount Issue is How to protect males from those gorgeous hyper am Mif Erous blondes. A Thomas h. Miller Mainz Fin then German germans no threat id like to respond to a German bases in .�?� i am wondering Why the thought about opening a base in the states is so appalling. Are we germans so threatening we done to want to overtake America. Our government not a the germans Quot wants to open a base. Forty six years after world War ii germans and americans should be Able to face each other. It Wasny to mine and it Wasny to the writers generation fighting the War. Do you think my Uncle and my Grandfather asked for fighting in the War they were Farmers and were forced to be soldiers. And they got killed. The German and the american governments Learned from the mistakes of their past but How can we every single person understand each other better when we done to Start with ourselves from this Point of View i even think that the base opening idea would be the right thing to do. A Hildegard Bauer Erlanger German welcomes German base this letter is in response to the letter a German base in .�?� the Only reasonable non hostile answer that 1 could come up with is this is 1991and the turn of the Century is just around the Corner. Under no circumstances should we forget the past and its sacrifices but i think it is time that we Lay it to rest and move Forward for the Benefit of others. If you Are sincerely concerned about the american taxpayers dollars then where were you when thousands of taxpayers dollars were being wasted in a a pm i sch on w h at a n possibly be considered the army a largest underground garage built for the new arc hotel that will More than Likely never see the Light of Day. If you did a Little Back ground checking in a sure you would be appalled at the amount of Money in cancelled work contracts that was wasted. The garage was completed but work was never begun on the hotel. Real waste  you say or How about the $5 million in Aid sent to the. Philippines to help them through the natural disasters when they done to even want us there our government can to or wont help our own homeless who Are living and dying on the streets in America. Its a shame that we can help everyone else but not our own folks. A German base in America would be a great boost to our relationship with the european Community. The foreign soldiers in America would buy american made products appliances cars stereos Etc. In a sure it would not be detrimental to the local Economy wherever the base would be located.

What you and others May be referring to As contradictions Are merely expansions of different accounts of the same event. The Bible was written by More than 40 authors a each different in their personality character and temperament a Over a period of 1,600 years. So what you Are referring to As contradictions Are the Many accounts Given by several eyewitnesses of the same event. A chaplain capt Don e. Harris bad Kissinger German beyond kind words in a time when some talk of the apathy and self involvement of members of society its refreshing to meet people who totally dispute that. On May 7, i met those people. I had moved into our quarters two Days prior a no phone no friends and nine months pregnant. My husband was out of town with our car and i was Home alone with our 3-year-old son when i went into labor. I walked next door to the Haine Berg Chapel hoping to use their phone. I did no to use the phone that Day i did no to need to. They called an ambulance for me. They held my hand during letters to the editor contractions. They distracted my son. They relieved All my fears. The ambulance staff allowed my frightened son to ride with me. He was even held. The labor and delivery staff not Only quickly and competently rushed me to delivery where my baby was born a Mere four minutes later they also allowed my son to stay with me in recovery until my husband arrived. They even provided him with crayons and a lot of attention. It was the Best medical care in be Ever received. Then there is Jackie. She is a woman who just happened to be attending mass that morning. The wife of an obstetrician she came out to help. She held my hand. She followed the ambulance to care for my son White i was in delivery. She came Back to visit twice a one time even bearing gifts. All this was done to help a com pie be stranger who had interrupted their Busy Day. Its people and events such As this1 that make me wish for a stronger phrase than thank you. It does just does no to seem to cover it All. A Patricia Cahill Wiesbaden German Faith needs no proof a recent writers fallacy was trying to disprove christianity empirically. Einstein once said a science without religion is lame religion without science is  Einstein thus identifies religion and science As two distinct entities. Although complementary they Are not to be equated. Science demands empirical proof. Religion is a matter of Faith. The Central question of christianity is Quot who is Jesus Christ a the writer admits the historical existence of Jesus but his Loose arguments Over peripheral matters in no Way come close to proof that Jesus is not god. A doctoral thesis would be just As useless. The question of who Jesus really is is a matter of personal Faith. I for one be Lieve that he is god but i cannot prove it a Steven d. Missmer Fulda German Tough act to follow id like to thank those at the family support Center at Ramstein a for the outstanding support afforded the incur Lik family members who chose the Ramstein area As their Safe Haven.
