Concerns about a broken system regarding border security, Ukrainian war

Dear Editor, I wish I could say the new crop of political wannabes new more about the U.S. Constitution regarding problems at the Mexico border and elsewhere than their television ads seem to indicate. Article 1, Section 8, Clause 4 deals with immigration. Section 8 grants Congress the responsibility of the rules of Naturalization. Why do we always place the blame of border problems on whoever is President when in actuality it is up to Congress when you consider we have congressional leaders refusing to even work with the administration? On Jan. 20, 2021 President Biden sent an immigration bill…

Thank you to the staff of Kingman Regional Medical Center

Dear Editor, Nobody likes going to hospital, and sadly I have gone way too many times, but I am so very grateful for the incredible staff at KRMC. One nurse in particular is a superstar. His name is Pip and he works in the Emergency Department. He is kind and caring and really focuses on his patients. He’s also accurate in what he tells you. If he says he will be back in a couple of minutes, he actually is (not an hour later or doesn’t come back at all). If every nurse could train with Pip, our healthcare system…

The great spectacle of God’s creation: Part 2 of 3

Dear Editor, God has no limit as to what He does and what He can do! Adam and Eve disobeyed God after she told the Serpent that God told them not to eat or touch the fruit from the forbidden tree, “Lest ye die.” The serpent said, “Ye shall not surely die. God knows that when you eat the fruit it will open your eyes, and be like gods, knowing good and evil.” They listened to the Devil and were evicted from the Garden by God who then posted angels with flaming swords to keep Mankind out!  Since then, we their…

Furthering the discourse between opposing viewpoints

Dear Editor, Rick, at last an admission the rich should pay their fair share of taxes. That was sort of like pulling teeth. Anyway, I could not agree more: differences of opinion need to be aired civilly if they are to be credible. Civil discourse solves more problems than the muck being slung by politicians today. I looked into the 87,000 new I.R.S. agents to be hired. What I discovered was the proposal recommended that hiring would occur over ten years. The reason for reducing the monetary level to $600 is to concentrate on unreported income and ferret out the…

Please show compassion with your liberal politics about medicine

Dear Editor, I’ve taken as much politics as I can. Enough is enough with your Socialist rules and regulations, not to mention your stinking policies related to medicine! I am sick and tired of paying tax and not to mention copays just to be deprived of medication that relates to pain management so the rich crowd can sit back and have a good laugh at my expense. That also includes power chain and the life alert detail as well. I may have to pay tax on many details, but I should be allowed to receive a bit of compassion. Here…
