Re: “Call Islamist terrorism what it is,” Dec. 4 Perspective.
Mike Rosen (Cyrus McCrimmon, The Denver Post)
Mike Rosen echoes the sentiments of many conservatives who have called President Obama and Hillary Clinton out for failure to use the term “Islamist terrorists” when describing Muslim shooters. Obviously, the president and Clinton wish not to offend people of the Muslim faith. Using the logic in his article, would Rosen label those killers who murder individuals in Planned Parenthood clinics as “Christian terrorists?”

Mike Rosen’s long rant against ColoradoCareYes was an attack on democracy. Gathering 156,000 signatures for ballot Initiative 20 for a single-payer health insurance program makes a very strong statement about what the citizens of Colorado desire.
This is truly one of the few democratic processes left in our country to enact change by the people. Colorado is one of those 25 fortunate states that has this initiative process. This initiative is an expression of the people’s right to choose what they want in their health care system. It is my hope that the rest of this nation will follow Colorado’s example on this health care initiative.
Let democracy rule for a change.
