Orange County Register's Op-ed Pieces Getting Curioser and Curioser… June
04, 2006 . The
Op-ed piece in the Friday,
June 2, 2006 issue of the OC Register titled At this point
it is worth noting that Freedom
Communications, Inc. founder and longtime Orange County Register publisher R.C.
Hoiles, explains his editorial guiding principles by affirming that
“No one can determine right from wrong, without some starting point to
reason”. He also reasons that if
one takes the starting point as the Ten Commandments and the Declaration of
Independence, then we should not pay taxes!
Whereas The
New York Times revised Code of Conduct is provided to their
reporters and columnists for more specific
guidance. Which
may explain why the OC Register regularly
mis-informs community residents, as was the case in the recent Coto de Caza
board of director’s elections, and why we have complained to the Freedom
Communications’ Board of Directors (to no avail) – What we do no
understand is, if the OCR’s guiding principle is that common folk cannot tell
right from wrong, unless they are told of a starting point, then turn around and
complain about lies, damn lies, but refuse to even acknowledge their own, then
perhaps Mark Taiwan was right all along! We
think that people have a built in moral compass and can tell right from wrong,
and that education or cognitive skills have little to no impact when it comes to
making ethical/moral choices. In
this context, and in response to a separate OCR op-ed piece providing a voting
guide, we suggest the following: NO
on propositions 81 and 82: The
California Teacher’s Association are mostly responsible for the poor state of
the education in California. Giving
them more money is simply a waste: Proposition
82 would require the state to provide voluntary public preschool throughout
California. It would place the state in the forefront of a growing movement
toward standardizing preschool education: www.yeson82.com

81 would require the state to
borrow $600 million through the sale of general obligation bonds to
provide 65 percent of the cost of projects for constructing and renovating local
public libraries? For
a 3600 view of the political landscape in California, refer to Jon
Fleischman Blog: Finally, we strongly suggest you visit Focus on the Family prior to voting: http://www.family.org/cforum/
