Excellent editorial. Jeb didn't realize that moderation and basic decency were no longer in fashion within the GOP primary's voters. He'd actually fit in with the current Democratic party's conservatives a lot better than in the current GOP.

While the article does a decent job of reporting the details, the headline is editorialized at best. To say that Bailey is "exploiting" a "loophole" suggests that he's trying to circumvent rules imposed upon him, when in reality he's simply strictly adhering to a *self-imposed* rule. Literally interpreting a constraint...

You need to do a bit of research regarding Sheriff Palmer's comments and actions. He openly supported Bundy & Crew with his comments that they were defending America against the government. He met with Ritzheimer and Payne, two of the now indicted militia members and had them autograph his pocket copy of the Constit...

Why not use vacant schools for the homeless? Some of these people used to have jobs, but fell off the grid. Hire a few to cook, a few to clean and a few to oversee. Get local companies involved.

Can the Register Guard stop calling motor vehicle crashes "accidents". This term for collisions is both offensive and misleading as well as perpetuating the notion that motorists aren't responsible for driving safely. Call them crashes or collisions, like most police do, please.

That flaming hate rhetoric would never survive here in the comments section.

This judge acted appropriately. You forget that Oregon is one of only 11 states where this would be considered to have even been a crime.

The other 39 states aren't Oregon. I think one state allows a 12 year old to marry if mom and dad (aka aunt and uncle) agree. We were all fine with "Summer of 42" and the older women seducing young boys, but really - if it were a male teacher and a 17 y.o. girl, the outcome would likely be a harsher sentence.

Not in Oregon. We are no fault on divorces. "Did irreconcilable differences cause the irremedial breakup of the marriage?" No details are asked for or admitted. They are irrelevant. Just divvy up the property and provide for the kids, if any. Your best hope is a pre-nuptial agreement that would limit her haul.

Everyone's knowledge of the affair is limited (except God's). And I think the media did a good job in writing the first draft of the history of this affair so Schmidt's conclusions seem reasonable.
