Be patriotic by standing up for your beliefs
For those of us who don’t necessarily buy in to all the “change” that has been coming our way from the new administration, it’s easy to get a little depressed. The election of President Barack Obama and the sweep the primarily liberal Democrats pulled in capturing the House and the Senate is bringing about some real changes in how our American landscape will eventually look. Those of us on the losing side of this election call these changes “consequences.” Change is hard for people. Not all change is bad, and I’m not suggesting that there aren’t some improvements that need to be made. Difficult issues such as health care and energy independence have been needed to be addressed for quite some time. But what is disturbing to me and a lot of other fiscal conservatives is the speed at which the Democrats are pushing through their agenda and the overall apathy the American public has about what all this change really means. Yes, we need energy independence, but not energy idiocy. The climate bill passed by the House is nothing but fantasy when it comes to cap and trade and carbon credits, and it will only raise prices immensely on those who can least afford it. Yet, the elite politicians don’t believe in Economics 101, so they refuse to see the reality behind this bill. I promise, and you can mark my words, that those leading this climate bill initiative are set to profit big time from it. And you can also mark my words that if this thing really goes through, there will be corruption out the wazoo. This whole concept is fraught with opportunity for fraud and deception and if you’re a politician, you’re capable of fraud and deception. Also, for the first time in my lifetime, our national media has sincerely abdicated its responsibility in being a watchdog press. I didn’t have a problem with the media watchdogs over the Bush administration, but they are totally not doing their job with the Obama administration. How in the world can our Congress pass sweeping bills thousands of pages long without even reading those bills and get away with it? In fact, the climate bill isn’t even completely written, and the House passed it. Would the media let the Bush administration get away with that? Would they let any Republican administration get away with that? Its gut-check time for the media and their credibility is entirely on the line for years to come. The president says change is not coming too swiftly. He said it’s been too long in coming. He’s right in some ways, yet, the reason behind having division of powers is for oversight and review. The wheels of government aren’t supposed to turn quickly. There is supposed to be review, debate, consensus. We’re not getting the proper review from a one-party government. However, those of us who want government to operate the way it is supposed to and who believe in the requisite division of powers need to take this July 4 holiday and remember our responsibilities as citizens of this great nation. We can’t just sit back and say OK. We have to remember that we owe it to ourselves and our future generations to stand up for our beliefs. We owe it to them to write letters to our lawmakers and leaders. We owe it to them to make our case. We should write letters and make phone calls to the White House and to the Speaker of the House and the Senate majority leader. We should write our local newspapers. We should continue to hold peaceful rallies and make our voices heard. And, we should never, ever shut up. The Democrats have made a career out of being shrill. That’s why we have the administration we have. I personally don’t like that tactic, and most of us fiscal conservatives don’t. Its an uphill battle, to be sure. But one day people will start to realize that this change is leveling the playing field “down” instead of leveling it upwards as the president promised. The debate will come then, even if it is too late. So, my fiscal conservative friends, take the July 4 holiday and be patriotic. Celebrate your country and all that has been accomplished. But, be prepared to roll up your sleeves and work to defend your beliefs and your rights. Nothing is absolute anymore.
Thursday was a strange and bizarre day. First, there was the expected passing of beauty icon Farah Fawcett, who had been battling cancer. Then, just a couple hours a later, the real bombshell hit -- Michael Jackson had been rushed to the hospital and wasn’t breathing. When it was finally confirmed the King of Pop was actually dead at the very young age of 50, radio stations immediately began playing Michael Jackson songs. MTV has been playing Michael Jackson videos non-stop. It’s always a shock when someone famous dies abruptly. I remember when John Lennon was shot in 1980. Similar tributes and remembrances were carried on then. I was a little cub reporter in Shawnee in 1977 when we got word that Elvis had died. That was back in the day of the actual AP and UPI ticker machines in the newsroom that clacked all day. I pulled the bulletin off that ticker and read it aloud in the newsroom. The emotions are always the same. Shock. Disbelief. Memories. We are definitely a pop culture in the United States, and we make a bigger deal out of these celebrities than we should. Yet, to many of us, these icons or celebrities represent eras in our lives. In the last 24 hours, watching the Michael Jackson videos and listening to the music is bringing back a multitude of memories. Each video or song immediately triggers a memory of a time, a place, an event. Despite the controversies of his final few years, his music and talent will have a lasting effect on many musicians and artists for years to come. With his death, the top songs and videos will be best sellers once more, and will inspire a whole new generation of young artists that hadn’t really heard much about Michael Jackson the last five or six years.
It's still all about the gathering of news and information
Did you know if you’re viewing this blog right now, you’re one of more than 7,000 unique visitors that comes to this Web site every day for news and information? Did you know that no other local source even comes CLOSE to the kind of traffic we get here on this Web site? Not the local Chamber site, not the city site, not any local radio site or any other “information” site in this area gets the kind of traffic we do. I don’t really mention this to brag. I’ve been doing news Web sites since the late 1990s, and we in the news business believe it is our duty and obligation to provide accurate, entertaining and relative information on our Web sites. But, I find myself energized when I take the time to reflect on the impact our news gathering operation has on this area and in people’s lives. The reason more people in our readership area turn to enidnews.com is because they know our staff of news gatherers is the best and most trusted source of local information. Traffic to our Web site has consistently grown over the years. We study the numbers each and every month, and we continue to see increasing numbers to our Web site year over year. Morning time is the most active time on our Web site. Even though people’s reading habits may be changing some from print to online, their habit of when they want the news hasn’t changed much at all. They consistently turn to the news in the morning -- and that has been the trend since the 1970s. Before then, people used to turn to the afternoon for their day’s news, and afternoon papers thrived. But, people came to realize that we live in a 24-hour world, and a lot goes on between noon and 12 a.m. The morning news cycle has stuck with us since then. Only now, we do really and truly have a 24-hour news cycle, and the Internet has allowed newspapers to compete very well in that arena. Readers are coming to our site every hour of every day. Once, radio used to be the most immediate news source available. Breaking news could be relayed at any time, 24 hours a day, on the radio, and later TV kind of took over as king of that breaking news cycle. Still, radio was the fastest because they didn’t have to worry about getting a video camera there or a satellite truck set up. All you needed for radio was one announcer on the scene. The Internet has allowed newspapers to take over that breaking news role, and newspaper reporters are still considered the most trusted, accurate and best gatherers of information over any other medium. That’s true here in Enid, for certain. The largest number of news gatherers work here. Radio stations doing the news primarily get their information from our newspaper and our news gatherers. Enid News & Eagle is no longer just a newspaper company. It hasn’t been just a newspaper company for at least a decade. Enid News & Eagle is a media company, complete with printed products (ENE, Scoop, La Conexion, Etown Magazine, etc.); an online and video production company (enidnews.com and future online endeavors) an advertising agency (Eagle Marketing, which is a public relations, advertising agency and event coordination function: i.e. Red Dirt Barbecue). When you add up all the readers of all our products, we reach well over 60,000 readers. That’s more than the Enid Morning News or Enid Daily Eagle ever reached. We are in the business of providing information that is interesting and relevant to our readers. We are constantly finding and developing new ways to do that. We are an industry dealing with some fast changes, but our passion and our mission have never changed. If you hear or know of something that has happened in Enid and the area, there’s a 99 percent chance that information originated with one of our products at the Enid News & Eagle.
Union, contractor can get back to work -- if they want to
For about five minutes on Monday, we had both the CSC officials and one of the lead negotiators for the Vance civilian workforce union in our office here at the Enid News & Eagle. They were in different rooms, talking to different staff people. I wondered aloud if we might possibly just lock then in a room together and refuse to let them out, maybe they could settle this thing. Seriously, it appears it might take that approach. For the last week, our news staff has been talking with both sides in this ordeal. It took CSC way too long to finally start giving their side of the story, and perhaps that’s an indicator of the ill feelings many of the workforce have for CSC. CSC officials said they don’t like to negotiate in the media. Well, certainly, no one likes to do that. But, perhaps CSC has finally come to realize Vance Air Force Base is bigger than CSC. The base belongs to the people, and particularly the people of Enid and northwest Oklahoma have a huge stake in this conflict. This strike IS being negotiated publicly, whether the union or CSC likes it or not. It appears, finally, after a week, both sides have pretty much laid their cards out on the table to the public. In doing so, the public is at a much better place to decide for themselves who’s right, who’s wrong or perhaps just offer some sage advice on getting this thing settled. A couple of things are apparent to me. First, the union workers are mad, and I think they’re mad because of the layoffs of more than 70 workers late last year. They believe CSC didn’t act in good faith in negotiating their contract with the Air Force, and the laid-off workers paid the ultimate price. As a way to kind of “stick it” to CSC, workers called in took their “paid time off” under their current contract rules. Workers have not had to give a reason for taking their time off, and they haven’t had to give notice. They can just call. I think they did it as a way to show CSC they couldn’t really get along without those 70 people, and CSC did without 1,400 workers over a period of six months. It’s kind of like the “blue flu,” and it’s been a union tactic for years. That kind of thing can cripple a unit, which needs a certain number of people working on a shift to meet Air Force requirements. CSC is not unreasonable in telling workers they need to give due notice if they want to take time off, unless it’s an emergency or a worker is sick. Reasonable people understand that, even union workers. Still, there are probably some things in the language of the contract that can put union workers more at ease. But, it’s not fair for the union to demand that it be taken off the table. This is one of those issues that other unions and contractors negotiate all the time. But, they don’t strike over it. Another thing seems clear. The union does not trust word of mouth or even an e-mail sent to the union by the contractor that the insurance quotes originally given in the contract were in error. Even though the correction about the insurance is in writing (in an e-mail) and is binding, CSC simply needs to provide the correction in an official letter or in a revised copy of the contract. Simple, really. And, not worth striking or standing ground over. Seniority issues are big with unions. They take seniority very seriously, and really, that has kept a lot of people in jobs and moving up for a lot of years. The union does not want to give up any seniority issues, and I can understand that. However, reasonable people also understand that companies (and in this case the government) win when the best qualified people are hired for the job. In this case, it would seem negotiating and some language changes could solve this as well, with the union having a say in promotion issues and being able to make a case for a workers when seniority positions come up. Again, other unions and contractors have negotiated this same issue and have not held a strike over it. Union workers seem to be hoping that CSC is eventually fired by the Air Force as the contractor for Vance. CSC’s contract comes up in the fall, and there may be some issues for the Air Force to consider. Yet, Enid and Vance Air Force Base can’t afford for union workers to pin their hopes on such a possibility. Perhaps when the contract period comes up, union workers will be able to make their case known about their complaints. CSC has said the union never seemed willing to negotiate the management issues in the contract CSC provided. Officials told us the union said “no” to everything, and even demanded a “final and best offer” before any negotiations over the management issues really took place. CSC has offered to extend the current contract over a “bridge” period. The union has accomplished a couple of things. It made CSC take them seriously, and it also forced CSC to finally start realizing it has an obligation to be up front with the workers and with the general public in Enid. And it also will be a black mark on CSC when Air Force contract negotiations start up again. A discussion CSC will have to be a part of is the reason that Vance, for the first time, received only a “satisfactory” rating on a major inspection this year. At that time, Air Force officials said compliance by the contractors will be a part of that analysis. But, now, it’s time to get back to the table and get the workers back on their jobs. Refusing to do so, even after CSC has offered more than once to come back to the table and reconsider all the language on the management’s issues, is now making the union look like the unreasonable party. The community doesn’t have the patience for this strike any longer. At this point, the community, the base and the workers can overcome the work stoppage of the last week. If this goes on further than this week, it will be more difficult for all to overcome this stoppage, and that is bad news for Enid and northwest Oklahoma.
I have no qualifications to be a counselor. Yet, it seems that is what is expected of me and other members of our news staff as this strike between CSC and its sub-contractors and the civilian workforce plays out. People are starting to panic a little bit, on both sides of this issue. I must have fielded three or four phone calls yesterday with local residents and business people who are genuinely concerned the longer this strike goes on, the more potential for it to impact Vance Air Force Base and Enid in a very negative way. In a sense, that is to be expected because it’s been drilled into this town that Vance is always at risk for closure. In the times of BRAC or anytime else, the major reason for any improvements in this community are always focused on keeping Vance. So, now that a strike is stopping operations at the base for almost an entire week so far, people are worried if pilots have to move or missions have to be temporarily relocated, the Air Force will decide it doesn’t need this little small pilot training base in the middle of nowhere. It is a legitimate concern; but, I also believe at this point its premature to conclude that Vance is so small potatoes, any kind of issue there puts the base in jeopardy. I’m not downplaying people’s concerns. Well. . . maybe I am, just a little bit. I don’t like having a strike at Vance. I can see some reasons for the union to be concerned about what appears to be a lack of willingness by CSC to put things in order. Yet, I can also understand that the job market has changed to where some benefits union members have become used to just don’t make a lot of business sense any more. To me, this all seems quite unnecessary. I can’t imagine why these issues couldn’t have been hammered out because most of them are pretty minor. It looks to me like both sides were itching for a standoff due to some long-standing hard feelings. I’m not ready to panic yet. I’m more concerned about the divisions in this community that will occur the longer this goes on and if it becomes apparent that base truly is in jeopardy. Members of the union are long-standing members of this community. They are friends, neighbors and fellow church-goers. I’d hate to see friendships and families torn apart because of this strike. Somehow, some way, all parties involved need to get together and start talking again. If not, we’re going to need a lot of counselors around this community.
When I was younger, even around 20 years ago, anniversaries of major World War II events, such as Pearl Harbor or D-Day, just kind of went by me. Yes, I read the history about them. And, yes, I learned about them (a little) in school. But, I wasn’t in tune with the significance of these events, nor was I in tune with how they shaped the world I live in today. I guess by getting older (and, hopefully, wiser) I’ve become more sensitive to just how extraordinary these events were. Perhaps its because I live in a media world where such a battle or plan like D-Day would likely never be kept the secret it was kept during that fateful time. For about the last eight years, I have worked harder to soak up as much information as I can about World War II. I am a big fan of the HBO series “Band of Brothers,” so much so that I bought the DVD set and watch it at least once or twice a year. In fact, I strongly believe “Band of Brothers” should be required viewing in all public high schools. Yes, there is some strong content, but believe me, our kids have been exposed to worse just by watching MTV of going to the movie to see “Saw IV” or “Drag Me To Hell.” I mean it about making “Band of Brothers” a curriculum requirement. This series chronicles real events and real, average and normal people who did extraordinary things. I am inspired every time I watch that series. Our young people have no idea about sacrifice. I, myself, have very little idea about sacrifice because my parents (the WWII generation) gave me a soft existence. They lived through the Depression and World War II and driving on bald tires or doing without for the war effort. In doing so, they made sure I would never go without or sacrifice. A blessing, yes, but also a curse because I was spoiled. Here in the United States, with our nation at war with terrorism for eight years, only our Armed Services families have really had to make any sacrifices. We can sit over here in the comfort of our homes and complain about our military, or our country, or our leaders for their decisions. We can get on the Internet and blog out our emotions with nary a thought, really, about knowing the personal realities of war. We don’t really worry about bombs hitting our streets. So, when I see movies like “Band of Brothers” or even “Saving Private Ryan,” it at least gives me a sense of appreciation for what these young men went through. It makes me understand that these were young people, full of life and promise, and they rose to the call and shed blood for something bigger than themselves. How many of our kids today really understand that lesson? How well do we, ourselves, understand it? So, D-Day anniversaries and remembrances are very important, now more than ever as we look to make some major changes and shifts in our military strategy and our country’s place in this world. I praise those heroes, and I mourn the passing of every World War II generation member who graces our obituary page every day. These people got it. They were extraordinary.
The blame game is already being ratcheted up by pro-choice and abortion advocates over the murder of controversial abortion doctor Dr. George Tiller. Tiller operated a clinic in Wichita, KS as one of the few in the country that performs late-term abortions. For decades, Tiller has been a center of controversy, including verbal and physical attacks for his practice. The doctor was even shot once before in the early 1990s, but survived. Some liberals and those who are vehemently pro-choice have taken this tragedy as another opportunity to blast conservative broadcasters who have openly opposed abortion and have also castigated Tiller for his practice. Tiller has been the center of a few political firestorms for his donations to high-profile Obama administration officials. Certainly, some broadcasters have been vehement in their condemnation of Tiller. Some had labeled him Tiller the Baby Killer. But, I can find no example of any mainstream conservative broadcaster calling for the murder of Tiller. Fox News broadcaster Bill O’Reilly has been targeted by the left for his campaign against Tiller, and it’s been implicated it may be partly his fault for the murder of Tiller. Certainly, O’Reilly’s words were harsh, calling Tiller an executioner of babies, operating a “death mill” and having “blood on his hands.” Did O’Reilly (who I consider a mainstream commentator because of his popularity and his position on the Fox network) ever say Tiller should be killed? Or that he should be dead? I can’t find any evidence of it. Unfortunately, that’s not the case when it comes to some liberal commentators who routinely and vocally wish for the death of former president George W. Bush. Chris Mathews, a mainstream MSNBC commentator, praised a Green Party candidate, who said he’d like to see Bush put to death for war crimes. “I like you already,” Mathews said. Music groups and comedians and other Hollywood types routinely wished death on George W. Bush and even recently former Vice President Dick Cheney. They have been open about it, and rarely -- if ever -- challenged by the media for their comments. The cold hard truth is, we are emerging more and more as a brutal society openly condemning those we oppose. We use harsh words, sometimes brazen rhetoric. There are all kinds of messages being delivered via the Internet by fascists, racists, sexists and the sort that are totally uncensored. Liberal fanatics and conservative fanatics abound out there in cyberspace, and their audacity is eking over into the mainstream media (newspapers, broadcasters, cable). New media is becoming more mainstream as time goes by, and that is something we all are going to have to deal with. There have always been boorish people out there saying outlandish things. They just didn’t have a platform. The Internet has changed that. Words, however, do not kill. People kill. And, people have to learn to control what they do. People have to take responsibility for their actions -- not blaming the media or a friend or a close associate for making “suggestions” to them. It’s not fair or accurate to portray O’Reilly or other mainstream conservative broadcasters who oppose abortion as complicit in Tiller’s murder. And, if we’re going to go down that road, it’s time to start holding those liberal commentators and all the Hollywood types calling for the death of Bush, Cheney or any other conservative they disagree with accountable for their “hate” speech.
I have to hand it to State Rep. Mike Brown, D-Tahlequah, for zinging the House Republicans today regarding the passage of a bill that adds several special license plates to those already available from the state. Brown suggested that perhaps the Republicans omitted one plate -- the Erectile Dysfunction Awareness plate. After all, Brown said, that plate would reflect the House Republicans’ priorities this session. He was zinging the Republicans over an issue he had with them in the session when he proposed an amendment that would require no Oklahoma insurance carrier can provide coverage for erectile dysfunction unless they also provide coverage for autism spectrum disorders. The Republicans voted against that amendment. “They are on the record as saying that sexual pleasure is more important than the health of children with autism and the struggle of their families,” Brown said. There has been a lot of debate this session about insurance coverage for autism. The Republicans have declined requiring insurance coverage for autism, saying it is too costly. The bill today on license plates does include an Autism Awareness plate, but that’s not much consolation to families struggling with the high costs of autism therapy. In my opinion, Brown has made his point.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi may have just picked the wrong fight. The speaker has changed her story a few times regarding what she knew and when she knew it about “enhanced” interrogation techniques, such as waterboarding. She has said she didn’t now about the techniques, even though she was the ranking Democrat who would have been briefed on interrogations at the time. The CIA has produced documents and testimony that suggest otherwise. On Thursday, she held a press conference in which she said the CIA had misled Congress. She said they lied. She’s also said she was briefed only once and didn’t make a fuss about waterboarding because she was too busy trying to help the Democrats take control of Congress. She supported a letter written by a fellow Democrat about decrying the techniques, but she never signed it. Even if that is true, and she only had one briefing, it calls into question why did she only have one briefing? She was the ranking Democrat! CIA Director Leon Panetta, a big-time Democrat, has been pretty vague about his stance on the issue and whether he will declassify the briefing information. And, no matter who’s in the White House and running the CIA, they don’t like to be made to look bad, and they don’t like to be called liars. Even worse for the country is the politicization of the CIA when it has a very important job to do, and that’s run intelligence operations to keep the United States safe from terrorist attacks. No one wants to see the CIA caught up in a political fight. The president himself has made it very clear he’s not interested in pursuing any kind of “truth squad” to have complete hearings, on the issue or interrogation techniques. It’s becoming evident that even some senior Democratic officials are annoyed at the attention to Pelosi on this, and her calling out the CIA. If there is a sacrificial lamb in this whole fight, Pelosi is likely it. Of all the players in this, she is the one who is at the biggest risk of ending up in the political dump heap.
I’m not an Enid native, but I’ve been here long enough now I think can knowledgeably comment on some Enid traditions that need a little updating. Since it’s graduation time, the annual Enid May Fete was held in the Government Springs Park. This is an 80-plus-year tradition. The long-timers in the community may understand the history of this event, but most people who have been here 25 years or fewer probably don’t really grasp this tradition. My daughter graduated from Enid High in 2005, and she and the other seniors dressed up in Sunday clothes and marched over the bridge. There was a maypole and music and it was kind of interesting. But, from what I could tell, it didn’t really mean anything to the students. And, the weather often doesn’t cooperate since its held in early May. There used to be a dance afterward (and maybe there still is), but the students didn’t really want to go. I submit perhaps its time to update this tradition in a more contemporary way that students might actually enjoy. How about changing it from a walk around the pond to a reception or a sit-down dinner? Many youths today don’t really know about good table manners or how to attend a nice, classy event. If the May Fete actually were a senior reception or banquet, it might hold a little more significance. There could still be the May Fete “court,” but it could be a really nice event. There could be an actual orchestra or band (or even DJ) that would provide dance music after the dinner or reception. In my view, it would be an event the kids wouldn’t have to pay for, or if they did, make it minimal, like $5. Adults could get donations and sponsors to pay for a big chunk of the event. It wouldn’t be like a prom, but it would a nice dress-up affair that would end around 10 p.m. It would be another nice end-of-year event for the senior class. Another Enid High School tradition that could use some updating is the AET group, or Alpha Sigma Tau (they substitute the letter E for the Greek letter Sigma). This is another 80-year-old tradition where junior and senior girls invite sophomore girls coming into the high school to be a part of their group. It’s supposed to be a social club-service club, but mostly it’s a social club that occasionally does some community service. Many long-time Enid matrons fondly remember this club as a way to get introduced to the high school. However, not every girl is “invited,” only a certain few. The group became concerned about its image as a “party group” about six years ago, and the 2003-2004 class really tried to emphasize the social service aspect of the group. However, the club is mostly known for its dances (and after-parties), mud football and hell week. The club is not recognized as an official school activity, so the school district has no authority or domain over the group. It’s up to the girls and their parents to monitor what goes on. Sometimes, they do a good job; other times, they don’t. Social clubs like this existed in nearly every town up until about 20-30 years ago, when most were disbanded. Enid still clings to the AET club. Now that freshman girls will be coming to the high school, there is a whole new opportunity to either reorganize AET or drop it all together and do something different in the way of high school orientation. It would be great to have a real orientation for the new freshmen and sophomores coming in -- but in a positive way. No hell week or anything of that sort. A week of receptions, dances, or a picnic would certainly be an appropriate way to introduce this whole big class of kids to the high school. I would like the school district to get some of their student leaders together to organize some events. I would also like to see the school district strongly recommend to parents that AET go out of existence. I know some people will really disagree with me. My own daughter was in AET, and there are some positive things about it. But, with the concerns about teen drinking and other mischief, it’s time to try something new. It certainly would be a positive step forward for the school district.
