What great letters to the editor on Aug. 30! I share the thoughts of Terry Collins and Daniel Burke. Obama's health care plan is scary and I along with many others don't want it.

Mark Darling's recent guest column, "In Defense of Sheriff Benton," is not a defense of the sheriff, but rather a diversion from issues. Darling, who will ramble to anyone who will listen to him, is friends with Sheriff Benton and former FHP command personnel who retired or were demoted during an internal affairs investigation.
