Letters to the Editor

Sound off!

No matter how large or small, no good deed should go unnoticed or unrecognized. These are good reminders that there are still positive people in this world. A prime example of such a deed occurred recently. There was cash money discovered outside a local church. Anonymously, it was turned in and handled properly. Due to the kindness and selfless acts of all involved, the money was given back to the church, in the manner it was intended. Without the good will of these individuals, the money could have been stolen or misplaced. Thank you for reminding me that people can still do things for ...

Never forget lessons of World War II

DEAR EDITOR: Since Veterans Day, I was once again looking through photos that my dad took while overseas during World War II. He was in a self-propelled AAA Automatic Weapons battalion and was their radioman, who repaired equipment and took his turn manning the anti-aircraft guns. I inherited his box of small black and white photos and negatives several years ago after my mom passed away. Growing up he seldom spoke of the war with my brothers and me. When he did share, it was usually some funny story. As I looked through the pictures, though, they revealed a different side of his ...

America, these years are going to hurt

DEAR EDITOR: Now that Donald Trump will be president, let’s clarify where our country’s economy stands at the moment. As it stands our economy is the envy of the world. What blurs this view here in the States is the fact that the action the Biden Administration took to ease the cost of living has just begun to take effect. What bothers me is the fact that if Donald Trump follows through with what he promised he would do, all the gains our economy has made since his disastrous management of the pandemic would be for naught. Something to think about, for the next two years at ...

Election is over, now it’s time to move on

DEAR EDITOR: Well, the election is over and time to take America back, the voters have spoken. I see people who make posts regurgitating the same thing that the liberal media puts out. Unlike those who do that, I listen to the person who is making statements and see if they are following through with what they said. I don’t give the analysts very much credence because I don’t need anyone telling me what they said or what they meant. If you look at the word analyst the first part of the word is anal. We were in good shape under Trump while the Democrats did everything wrong, ...

Giving thanks for Browns broadcast

DEAR EDITOR: I should be able to watch the Cleveland Browns on local cable television. I was surprised, upset and confused when I went to turn on the Browns vs Steelers game and I could not find the game with my basic cable subscription. When I looked up where to find the game, another wave of anger set it. Why should I need an Amazon Prime subscription to watch my local team play? I wanted nothing to do with Amazon and refused to sign-up just to watch one game. I was lucky to find my old radio so I could at least listen in. Thank you to the Cleveland Browns radio network for not ...

DEAR EDITOR: Donald Trump won the election. I accept that he’s the next president. I do not, however, complacently accept the unqualified advisors being gathered to join the upcoming Trump administration. The president must meet no qualifications except age and citizenship, but advisers must pass security clearances and earn senate approval. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Trump’s choice for Secretary of Health and Human Services, does not know enough about epidemiology. He understands brain worms and opposes vaccines, although he won’t eliminate them. Multiple presidents and their ...
