Kyle Robisch missed the very point of voting in a constitutional republic in his Tuesday editorial titled "Libertarian candidate has no chance."
Sitting quietly in biology class, my eyes were transfixed on the screen in front of me.
In Wednesday's paper, Rafael Sabbagh suggested that America should exercise a "humbler" policy regarding Russia's invasion of the sovereign republic of Georgia.
First, I want to say I agree with Mr. Sabbagh's Wednesday column because the United States is on hard times.
Our prayers have been answered.
Earlier this week, we published an opinion column about Libertarian candidate Bob Barr's chances of being elected - rather, the lack thereof.
Let me get this straight: The Gator Nation moans and complains about how classless Georgia football coach Mark Richt was during last year's Gators-Bulldogs match up, but they see no lack of class in Urban's attempt to run up the score?
As a supporter of presidential candidate Bob Barr, I would like to respond to Kyle Robisch's commentary by saying thank you. It is most flattering to a candidate and his supporters when someone pays attention, especially when he repeats the same old boring argument the Republicrats always use when a third-party candidate breaks out of the pack.
One day away from the seventh anniversary of Sept. 11, Americans are still preparing themselves for the possibility of another terrorist attack.

To suggest that Urban Meyer has no character and is a bad person for letting his inexperienced kicker attempt a field goal late in a game is simply ridiculous.
We cannot continue to believe we are the greatest nation in the world.
Contrary to a letter written to the editor Tuesday, I can safely assume that there is life beyond Lil Wayne and Kanye West. We all love the infamous song "Lollipop," but if anybody appreciates good music they can also jam to "Jungle Love" and "The Joker" without having to be 50 years old.
Finally. We're all moved into our new places, and the semester's hectic beginning is actually starting to level off into some form of sanity.
Tuesday's column titled "Libertarian candidate has no chance" demonstrates why our election system is messed up and why less than half of voters bother to show up at the polls.
I was pleased with Marc Weinoth's article Friday.
The Editorial Board is pleased to see several state and local agencies coming to the rescue of an often-overlooked local treasure.
UF's world-famous and exceedingly popular "Go Gator Nation" ad campaign has finally come to a end.
The largest student-run pep rally has once again failed to deliver a show for students. Instead, it will feature the Steve Miller Band playing their greatest hits for alumni.
