Letter To the Editor: On the Roof - The Parameter
Editor,I pray I am wrong!!!!My understanding: A ladder was attached to the building where the shooter climbed and was identified by civilians on the ground and warned available law enforcement that there was a man on the roof with a gun (rifle- doesn't matter what type). At this distance an easy shot. A local officer climbed the ladder.
Letter to the Editor: Democrats new plan . . . failed
Dear Editor,July 2, just 12 days ago, I cautioned that the Democrats only alternative to beating Trump was to assassinate him and that their threats and allusions to such an act should be taken seriously. Imagine my “complete shock” when a friend called yesterday and said Trump had just been shot. Sadly, I’m not surprised, not in the least.
Letter to the Editor: Trump’s Mental Decline
To the Editor, Since there is an ongoing review of President Biden’s mental health, I think we should apply the same kind of scrutiny to Trump. Yes, thisarticle is an opinion piece, but Rex Huppke who watched the over 75-minute Trump screed from Tuesday night so for us saner people did not have to. If you are in doubt about the description Huppke has written, I suggest YOU watch Trump wacko speeches for yourself to prove that his description is false.
Singing with the Cicadas
Isn't it funny how little things can instantly send you back to childhood? Like cicadas. My earliest memory of the insects was as a child in Walker at my grandparent's house. They had a huge tree in their front yard that was just full of the bugs. I remember being fascinated by the sound that they made, AND how densely the tree and ground was outside their front door.
Give the President a Lollipop
It's official, the White House has President Biden graduating from preschool this week and now he gets to go to a "big boy press conferences." I kid you not. Click on those words to listen. Often while I'm working on another story, or creating ads, or researching something for a story I have various news channels running in the background. Something caught my attention this morning.
Letter to the Editor: It's Dead Jim...
Dear Editor, As Captain Kirk and Dr. McCoy sat watching the Biden/Trump debate, the end finally arrived. Dr. McCoy leaned over and looked Captain Kirk in the eye saying . . . “It’s dead Jim, the Biden Administration is dead”. And so it was, as the strings directing the marionette that was President Biden were cut and remained disconnected for the entire 90 minutes.
The Presidential Debate was a Cheap Fake, you did not see what you saw!
Please note: The words in blue are links to stories with most of the headlines intact as part of the story.-The White House says Joe Biden is a victim of 'cheap fakes.''Cheap fake' videos cut Biden's words out of context we've been hearing for the last several weeks. The videos that appears to show President Joe Biden fall on stage at the US Air Force Academy ceremony, or Biden supposedly falling while getting off his bike after a beach ride or even President Biden Wandering Off Stage, that never happened.
Letter to the Editor: HONORING OUR PROTECTORS
Dear Editor, This 4th of July I encourage you to show honor and support to a Service Member, active or retired, with a generous thank you. Send a note, an email, or even a gift card for those who have sacrificed in so many ways so that we can live freely in our country, a republic. As a great-grandchild, a daughter, a wife, and a mother of military service members, I know firsthand how much has been given so we can have freedom.
Letter to the Editor: Former Supervisor Weighs in
Dear Editor,As a former Benton County Supervisor I would like to comment on the current lawsuit filed by the former Benton county Human Resource director against our county officials. Remember the charged are innocent unless they readily admit they did wrong or are found guilty by trial and neither as yet has happened. When Benton County originally advocated for the first time hiring a H.
Letter to the Editor: Most of us are on the Titanic, and we're going DOWN!
Dear Editor,I have tried and tried to avoid stress and worries lately about politics, but I can't do it any longer. Not with that clown in the White House and his sideshow...freak show...whatever. My best analogy for this mess is that the country's seniors, vets, and poor AMERICAN CITIZENS are on the Titanic, and we're going DOWN with no life preservers or lifeboats in sight.
