Letter: Don’t neglect domestic issues

Friday, Sept. 28, 2001 | 4:25 a.m.

I am a Democrat who supports and stands behind the president 100 percent in his war on terrorism.

However, this war has taken all of the focus away from the Republican agenda and domestic policy. Many of us are concerned with drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, using Yucca Mountain as the dumping ground for America's nuclear waste, gun control, renewable energy, i.e., solar and wind farms, Social Security, Medicare, and prescription drugs for seniors. I'd like to see more emphasis go back to domestic issues.

Will the media ever stop sensationalizing and creating more rhetoric than the Towel of Babel held?
