Letters to the Editor

Thrown from the Trump train

To the editor: Congressperson Liz Cheney voted with former President Trump more than 90% of the time. She took a stand only after he lost his second election. Illegal and dishonest attempts to overturn the results of the second lost public election were and are despicable. But so was the ...

Candidate competency is what matters

To the editor: A Party must have America in the forefront of their purpose, to solve problems; improve the economy, protect its citizens and provide opportunity. In order to do that they must nominate and select qualified candidates that will fulfill those functions if and when they attain ...

Ignored warning was dead-on

To the editor: Who knew Biden could be this bad? Former President Obama certainly did when he said on Nov. 30, 2020, “don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f… things up” speaking of Joe Biden’s presidency. Obama worked with this guy for eight years and knew what the Democrats ...

Thanks a lot

To the editor: The Inflation Reduction Act 2022 will increase taxes on everyone. Medicare won't be able to negotiate drug prices until 2026. You will get a rebate on an electric vehicle... if you could afford one. This bill also will have very little effect on the inflation we are struggling ...

Shame on them

To the editor: Our Board of County Commissioners is at it again. They have been limiting public input at their public hearings to three minutes. (Is this an abridgement of free speech?) Now, shame on me for this, I have just discovered that their Administrative Code (AC-2-7) calls for five ...

Sloppy history

To the editor: A recent letter from a local DeSantis promoter praised the inclusion of religious discussions in our public schools because religion binds much of the world population together. This is just sloppy history. Last time I checked, major conflicts with her Renda’s death tolls ...

Kathy Fanny a good choice for Lee County School Board

To the editor: As a retired educator and advocate for school-aged children and youth and their families, I recognize the importance of electing school board members with good educational experience and sound family values. I am writing today to endorse Kathy Fanny as a candidate for the Lee ...

Human rights

To the editor: The left seems to be hysterical in their desire to make abortion a human right in America once again. Their threats and attacks are interesting because they only consider a fetus to be a human once they are born. They never mention that fetuses live outside the womb after 6 ...
