Is this the future of the U.S.?

Dear Editor, There can be absolutely no doubt in the mind of any thinking, rational person that the entrenched Elites, the Communists have taken over the entire left half of the political spectrum in America. In their power-grab frenzy, they have blatantly abandoned their party’s base, the common working, taxpaying citizen. They try to play cutesy with their use of terms such as progressive and free thinker, but at the end of the day, they are just exactly what Joe Stalin, Vladimir Lenin, Leon Trotsky, Che Guevara, Karl Marx, Hugo Chavez, and Pol Pot wanted them to be. They are…

Now in Arizona: Hope delivered every 10 seconds

Dear Editor, By all accounts, Arizona has had a rough time through the COVID-19 pandemic. A staggering loss of more than 15,000 Arizonans, punctuated by devastating economic and mental health impacts, left our state reeling. Vaccinations mean that hope is here, and Arizona’s recovery has been jumpstarted with one of the highest-volume, 24/7 vaccination sites in the country at State Farm Stadium in Glendale. With more than 8,000 vaccines administered every day…about one every 10 seconds…Arizonans have come together in a colossal act of love. This is exactly why, when state leaders called on Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona…

Hypocrisy reigns on both sides

Dear Editor, Seems there is a plan afloat by our wonderful Republican legislature to rewrite the election rules for Arizona. Other states are jumping on the bandwagon as well. Why? Because they don’t like the outcome of the past election and they are going to “fix” the system. The Goldwater Institute is also involved, by dragging Proposition 208 (funding Education Bill) through the Arizona Supreme Court as unconstitutional. Never mind voters approved the proposition, or that lower courts would not rule to temporarily block 208 from taking effect. We are faced with a bunch of sore losers who can’t figure…

Valle Vista BOD not following Robert’s Rule of Order

Dear Editor, The new Board of Directors of Valle Vista want to run the board meetings their own way. No reading of the minutes of past meetings.  No reporting in the financial report of back assessments, penalties and fines.  Call to Public not in the minutes on any of the suggestions, inquiries, solutions, or even answers of what was said by any member of the Council of Co-Owners, even though they sign in to speak on one subject.  The Board of Directors are so cheap they won’t even get a microphone and speaker so that the Council of Co-Owners can…
