It isn’t cheating unless you get caught. If you believe these people and politicians won’t do anything to get elected or re-elected to get power or keep power, I got some land to sell you in the Everglades. They thrive on the power to control you and do and say whatever it takes to get it done.
Sadly, it seems that David Blom’s scary and inaccurate ads against Representative Sue Cahill did the trick. Representative Cahill has served our area tirelessly in many capacities for many years. Anyone has a right to run against her, but why the dirty tricks and lies? “Representative Cahill is for pornography in schools?” Why not run a race about your priorities for the state. Why did you have to resort to outrageous misinformation? You’re not Iowa School Social Worker Legislator of the Year for peddling porn.
It has been reported that Marshalltown has around $18 million in unspent bond money. That means the city overtaxed us by $18M dollars over a period of time. We all know, and anyone visiting knows Marshalltown has an extremely serious street problem on the north side of town. And I believe 100% of that $18M should be spent on streets. Starting on streets north of State Street between 3rd Ave and 2nd St before they all need very costly full-depth replacement. Some already do. The residential properties along the streets mentioned above have been paying property taxes longer than most ...
After reading the two Letters Oct. 21 “Pray and Vote” by Mr. Jerry Waterman and Oct. 25 “Socialism Destroys Freedom by Mr. Kerry Huck I had to chuckle when Mr. Waterman cited the quote from Winston Churchill “Socialism is the philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance and the gospel of envy. The inherent virtue of Socialism is the equal sharing of miseries.” Albert Einstein was a socialist I hardly think his brilliant mind fits the description of being envious, ignorant nor does it typify failure. Regarding envy Churchill is arrogantly defending Great Wealth regardless ...
I thought the letter written by Jim Lamb explaining how abortion is performed at different stages of pregnancy was very informative. The battle cry of those favoring abortion “My body. I should be able to choose what I want” comes across n banners and demonstrations across the land. What about the silent voices of the little people inside the womb crying out their bodies be saved and given the gift of life? Whether conceived in love or lust they are a living human being brought about by a miraculous miracle. As an adoptive parent myself, I bless the two young women who through ...
The Bible is the only book in humanity’s historical record in which history isn’t written after the fact, but in advance. The world leaders are talking about a global reset, that is to start over with new rules. By what rules will the world be run, and who gets to choose? Thus enters the Paris Climate Accord, the biggest scam ever perpetrated on mankind. I am not saying we don’t have climate change, we have always had change and always will. God says in Genesis 8:22, “While the earth remains, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night, shall not ...
