Dear Editor, As we continue with the COVID-19 nonsense on who’s to blame. I focused on something more pressing. Much more serious and time consuming than who’s the grown up in the room. It even tops what the President and Joe Biden did at the most ridiculous debate we all witnessed. The ever present TV commercials. I’m not talking about Joe Biden or President Trump’s commercials. I’m talking about the ones that ask you about “Erectile Dysfunction ” “Bladder Leaks” and if you’ve been abused by the Boy Scout leaders, Round up commercials and the kicker, call girls who will…

Dear Editor, On Wednesday afternoon, the governing board of the Northern Arizona Consolidated Fire District #1 (NACFD) announced that NACFD does not endorse any candidate in any election and any use of NACFD’s logo, patch, or other NACFD images in political material are not authorized by NACFD. This special meeting was scheduled after NACFD became aware that its logo was being used by Rick Veradt, Jerry Lucero, and Sue Brown, without permission, on political signs and on a website. The individuals using the NACFD logo were put on notice that their use is misleading as it falsely portrays NACFD’s support…

Dear Editor, Give all Americans the option to buy into Medicare. I’ve paid into Social Security and Medicare my entire life. I’m still paying to be on plan B and supplemental coverage. I also pay for prescription insurance. I often feel like a coffee coupon from McDonald’s would pay for about as much medicine as my prescription card pays. I no longer pay over $1600 a month in medical insurance but I still pay about $450 a month even with Medicare. Nothing is free.  Americans should have the option to buy into Medicare especially if medical insurance will not cover…

Dear Editor, September 29, 2020, was just another bad day in 2020. We thought that with Covid-19, unemployment, and riots in the streets of America’s cities it could not get worse. It did. Joe Biden, Donald Trump and Chris Wallace gave us a “show?” we will never forget. Our leaders used to make us proud. We grew up wanting to emulate people in high places who inspired us with their remarkable lives. We watched how they conducted themselves, communicated and chose their words wisely with dignity, diplomacy and grace. This doesn’t happen anymore in America. Tuesday’s debate was just another…
