http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram RSS Feed for KOMO - Opinion - Ken Schram en-us Sat, 06 Sep 2008 02:09:44 GMT http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27919804.html I said the media should go after Sarah Palin based on the political issues swirling around her - and stay away from using her family and her gender as a gauge of whether she can be Vice President. A lot of viewers said I was missing the point. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27864529.html Having rejected the company's "best and final" contract offer, and voting to strike, members with Boeing's Machinists Union were primed for a strike that could have cost them a whole lot of money. But why such anger over a 48 hour delay? http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27822814.html I'd like any and all members of the media who've been harping about certain aspects of Gov. Sarah Palin's personal life to step up and be held accountable. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27740994.html Sarah Palin's 17-year-old daughter's pregnancy shouldn't affect Palin's vice presidential candidacy, but I wonder how those who were so quick to judge Jamie Lynn Spears' mother will react now? http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27664479.html More than a few, but less than a lot. That's an accurate breakout for the emails I got on my commentary that went after the Snohomish County Republican party for selling fake Barack Obama 3-dollar bills. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27621254.html I don't really have the answer, but my suspicion is that before this election season is done, right-wing Republicans will have hit new depths of campaign distortions and outright lies. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27542634.html When our mommies in the state legislature passed the law saying we couldn't talk on our cell phones while behind the wheel, it seems that police were given a free pass. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/27369059.html This past weekend saw the city's first car free Sunday. Want to know my favorite part? The not-so-publicized rule that says on some blocks not only can't you drive your car, you can't park it either. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/26425144.html Not everyone agreed with my critical comments about how the state allows juveniles to go out hunting in the woods without any adult supervision. http://www.komonews.com/opinion/kenschram/26385064.html It's been interesting keeping track of the tent city move to Mercer Island. As usual, there was the ubiquitous display of paranoia from a group of island residents, but then again, it was much less than some other cities.
