i ne u. was grossly negligent. As a
newspaper that has a circulation that
reaches thousands of students, I firmly
believe you should have more fully
investigated any subject matter before
making outlandish accusations and
before printing mere assumptions.
If you had produced facts and fig
ures that contradicted that Boosalis
could not in fact invigorate economic
development to fund her programs,
then your arguments would have been
more feasible.
I am speaking from a standpoint of
fact when I say Boosalis did initiate
new programs, through increases in
economic development revenue and
federal grants, when she was mayor of
Lincoln.
It is beyond my ability to conceive
why and how the DN could logically
cast aside all of Boosalis' proposed
economic development programs, when
many of them had been tried and
proven successful on a smaller model
in Lincoln. To project defeat for these
programs, was an opinion based solely
without fact.
One point that thoroughly distressed
me was that the editorial criticized
Boosalis for being innovative and crea
tive as a candidate; one who had pro
posed needed programs for our state.
In the same breath, Kay Orr was con
gratulated for limiting her proposed
programs. If we want a governor with
out vision, then Kay Orr is the clear
choice.
Let's talk taxes for a moment. I am
comfortable in believing the words of
Boosalis, a respected and conscien
tious elected official, those words being:
she will not raise taxes. Humor me for a
moment, but any tax increase is in
itiated by the 49-member legislature;
then it progresses through a series of
hearings, debates, and votes by that
body. And if that body deems it neces
sary to increase taxes, then so shall it
be.
The editorial also comments on a
need for consistency and truth by Boo
salis. I would like to point out Kay Orr
is the candidate that is taking the
voters for suckers. Orr's campaign com
mercials on TV are outright lies. Boosa
lis has said she will not raise taxes, but
God's hand
could bolster
U.S. defense
ROYKO from Page 4
"Listen, he's going to be a winner.
Who's George Bush or any of the other
candidates got going for them com
pared to God? I bet Bush can't even get
the Senate chaplain to endorse him."
Yes, God would be a considerable
political advantage.
What if they ask what you can do for
them?
"Medical costs."
What about medical costs?
"Have you looked at a hospital bill
lately? An aspirin costs $2. Every time
an intern says good morning, it's another
C-note. But this Robertson is one of
those faith healers. He can pat you on
the head and get rid of your migraines,
give you a pat on the rump and the old
hemorrhoids are gone, tweak your nose
and you drop your crutches and start
dancing a polka. You can't get cured
cheaper than that. We wouldn't need
Medicare."
That could have considerable appeal.
What ityouta asked about such issues
as defense Mw(4?b - Lb 1 J .
"A snap. I telh-them: 'Don't worry.
With Pat in the White House, we'll be
stronger without spending any money.
Remember, all Pat has to do is ask You
Know Who, and He'll send those Roos-
kies some pestilence and locusts and
give 'em sores. Remember what He did
with the Red Sea?' Kext time, it might
be the whole Baltic Sea flooding their
basements."
I can see the possibilities. But what
if Robertson should speak in tongue.
"Oh, you mean that religious stuff,
where he opens his mouth and all kinds
of strange words come out, and nobody
is sure what he's talking about?"
"Fine. Let him talk that way. It
didn't hurt Reagan, did it?"
