Have Only Ourselves to Blame
Posted: May 15, 2013

To The Editor:

Our society and human beings in general constantly amaze me. I just don’t understand our thinking. Here is what I am talking about. We fuss about how our political leaders don’t represent us. We are taken aback by their lack of leadership. We are repulsed by their lack of morals and decency. We are surprised by their arrogance. Yet . . . and here’s what I totally don’t understand . . . why do we vote these folks back into office.

Reflects on Korean War Memorial
Posted: May 08, 2013

To The Editor:

Passing by Krog Park, I saw a young person taking pictures of the tulips decorating the Korean War Memorial. Obviously, the tulips caught the eyes, not the memorial. An inscription on the memorial reads, “The Forgotten War” Lest We Forget. June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953. I wasn’t born, until 1956. In school I recall studies of World War I and World War II, not a whole lot about the Korean War.

Education, Job Creation, Lawmakers
Posted: May 08, 2013

To The Editor:

The primary factor in attracting quality employers to Missouri is not tax concessions, rather it is the excellence (or lack thereof) of our public schools, especially at the primary and secondary level. Executives and higher level employees want their children to be well-schooled.

My family went to Lions Lake this weekend to bar-becue. When we got there we started at pavilion No. 2 and shortly while we were still waiting for others to get there a man showed up and said he had rented the pavilion for a party.

Don't Call Victims Political Pawns
Posted: May 03, 2013

To The Editor:

I’d like to respond to Chuck Sharpe’s “Advancing a Political Agenda” of 17 April. I live in Lonedell but work full time in Connecticut literally across the street from Bradley International Airport where Air Force One landed.
