War everywhere. High gasoline prices. Lower standards of living for the working-class people in our own country,. Lies and deceit from the current administration. And a Congress that cannot pass any meaningful laws in quick fashion -- unless, of course, that legislation includes a pay raise for themselves and a bunch of pork for their constituents.

Would everyone who is eligible please go the polls in November's election? It is time to send a message to these idiots who are paid a large sum of money and given large expense accounts but couldn't care less about what happens to the rest of us. When you place that vote, give it to someone who is not an incumbent. Get rid of them all.

If I were the president right now, Republican or Democrat, I would be meeting with the prime minister of Israel. I would ask Israel to form an alliance with the United States to put an end to every terrorist group once and for all.

JOHN P. CLIPPARD, Cape Girardeau
