KAVANAGH: Fauci’s Fault: He Tells The Truth

LETTER from KENNETH J. KAVANAGH Fauci’s Fault: He Tells The Truth To the Editor: It is sadly another fractured irony floated by the “stable genius” at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. that Dr. Anthony Fauci was “inherited,” implying Trump has no choice. Trump’s displeasure with Fauci is repeatedly more than evident throughout his diatribes for one reason and only one: Fauci tells the truth. His statements are based purely upon scientific data. His refusal to go along with Trump’s political spin, as…

DUNCAN: Time For Sanctuary Against DMV

Letter From R. Scott Duncan Time For Sanctuary Against DMV Let’s make Otsego an “Automobile Sanctuary County.” There is just too much government interference in owning and driving a car. It costs thousands of dollars a year to keep a car moving. Don’t I have some Constitutional rights? The first step is paying for a learner’s permit. Then you have to pay someone to teach you to drive. Don’t forget to pick up the driving manual that you need so…

Oust Trump, Focus On Problems

LETTER from GERALD WEINBERGER Oust Trump, Focus On Problems To the Editor: Local Republicans should start petitions urging President Trump to resign. Senate Republicans will not convict him. Impeachment per se will not get rid of Trump, who obviously enjoys all the attention. Vice President Mike Pence is hardly a good Republican candidate because of sexual bigotry, but can be an improvement over Trump, who lost the popular election by 10 million votes. If Trump does not resign: incumbent Republicans or…

MOYNIHAN:  To Predict Recession, Read Entrails

LETTER from ROBERT MOYNIHAN To Predict Recession, Read Entrails To the Editor: Predicting an economic future? Just forget the past and reliable evidence. 1. No society has survived by increasing debt and reducing income – that is our present national pattern of lowering taxes and inflating expenditures. 2. Whatever minor tax relief given average citizens, increased fees and higher prices for goods limit their spending ability. 3. Because of new tariffs, U.S. farming communities already face depressed markets and massive…

Does Society Of Friends

OPEN LETTER TO COMMUNITY Does Society Of Friends Offer Solutions To Angst That Divides Our Nation? For those who know one, or all, of us, “utopian” isn’t the first word that would come to mind. Practical, fact-based, analytical – those would be better adjectives to describe us. Yet we can’t help but recognize, locally and nationally, the decrease of civility, neighborliness and cooperativeness in our national conscience and behavior, and wonder if there’s a way for citizens and our leadership…

Golly, Goodbye To All That Was 2018 – And Welcome To Whatever

Golly, Goodbye To All That Was 2018 – And Welcome To Whatever To the Editor: 2018 – Farewell. Actually, farewell is an optimistic term, but there is a better expression: good riddance.  Complaints about the past 12 months … Unregulated patent medicine ads supposedly improving mental function; as well, pills that do miraculous cures and improvements (making “it” larger, disposing of wrinkles, growing hair). Since 1906, the government supposedly regulates such food and drug fraud. The agency is now narcotized…
