The article of letters to President Obama from the children of Stillpoint School was very sweet (“Dear Mr. President ...”, page B1, Feb. 25 Journal).

However, in the eight years President Bush was in office, I don’t believe you ever printed “Dear President Bush.”

Mr. Editor, I just want to remind you not everyone in San Juan County is liberal. Is it too much to ask for a conservative view occasionally? Maybe you should rename The Journal “The Obama Weekly.”
