November 18, 2024Dear editor; Are you seeing what Donald Trump’s Project 2025 has in store for all of us even before he’s in office? “America first” means America alone, but we have relationships in this world who depend on us as an international leader in economics, defense, and climate change...
November 11, 2024Dear editor; You say you don’t like what Donald Trump says, but you like his policies. I’ve never liked lying charlatans who are after your money for their gain, and then to give it to billionaires with another huge tax break, while increasing our costs with tariffs and...
October 25, 2024Dear editor: Still undecided? Donald Trump has been charged, tried, and convicted of 34 felony counts by a jury of his fellow New Yorkers where one of his frauds took place. If he’s like one of you, as he claims, why is he not in jail awaiting sentencing?...
October 2, 2024Dear editor; Hi Len, Judy here. I just read your Reader’s Voice article in The Voice October 3, responding to my Reader’s Voice September 19. My submission was written with words straight from my grandson’s heart wanting solutions to end gun violence in school. I’m proud of him...
September 25, 2024Dear editor; I found Ms Siedlecki’s letter in the September 19 issue very moving. In it she forwarded her eighth grade grandson’s letter citing his fears caused by school shootings in America. Such fears should never be allowed to surface in our wonderful nation. We veterans have fought...
September 22, 2024Dear editor; Fake Electors are back in Key Swing States in 2024: Pennsylvania, 5; Michigan, 6; Nevada, 2; and New Mexico, 1. Electors in our antiquated Electoral College actually determine the presidential winner in our Federal elections. In 2020, legitimate electors represented the actual count in their state...
September 12, 2024Dear editor; A young man speaks up about guns. That young man is my grandson: “Dear parents, I’m a 14-year-old 8th grade student in Jr. High in Oswego. I want to tell you how I feel about guns in school. I want to tell you how I feel...
August 23, 2024Dear editor; Two friends and I attended a Fox & Friends event at Benny’s Restaurant, Friday, Aug. 23. After breakfast, one of my friends and I were standing outside talking to each other, when a man came by inquiring if he was too late. He then referred to...
July 19, 2024Dear editor; Some of my friends say both presidential candidates are too old, Joe Biden, 81; Donald Trump, 78. Some political pundits say president Biden can’t deliver the Democratic message forcefully. He delivers the message with action, instead: First thing in 2020, Biden got the coronavirus pandemic under...
July 11, 2024Dear editor; Allan Lichtman has predicted the winning president 90% of the time since Ronald Reagan’s 1984 re-election. He uses 13 key elements, one of them being the incumbent as a winning key, so why is their talk of replacing Joe Biden? Joe Biden is one of our...
July 6, 2024Dear editor; We needed the fireworks celebration after a rough few days, although I have never wavered from mighty Joe Biden. He’s young compared to a lot of people I know in their 90s and still with it. I’ve had the privilege of knowing people who lived into...
Sunday, June 23Dear editor; As many of you are floundering over who to vote for, Joe Biden or Donald Trump, I say choose what to vote for, democracy or fascism. As a child, the poem “If”, plaque hung on the wall of our kitchen. I spent a lot of time...
December 11, 2023Dear editor; Thank you to everyone who donated Christmas cards, dropping them off at Oswegoland Senior & Community Center, with supportive preparation by Rhonda Jaras and Pam Rhoads. Despite the cold and rain for Christmas Walk December 1, senior volunteers including Michele Bergeron, Jennifer Weiskircher, Rozanne Klejna, Ronie...
March 6, 2023Dear editor; When I was growing up in the 1950s my mom was a single parent raising my three older brothers and me on a low-paid job and no food assistance. I remember when I was six years old leaving food on my plate each night that she...
January 16, 2023 Dear editor; Usually Donald Trump brags about having the most and the biggest, the most money, the most wives, the biggest, tallest, buildings, all the while being the biggest liar, at least until George Santos landed in Kevin McCarthy’s slim majority in Congress. It was unusual when...
January 9, 2023Dear editor; What is the definition of democracy? Newly- elected House Democratic Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said it best: “House Democrats will always put American values over autocracy, Benevolence over bigotry, the Constitution over the cult, Democracy over demagogues, Economic opportunity over extremism, Freedom over fascism, Governing over...
December 12, 2022Dear editor; Thank you Oswegoland! Nearly 800 Christmas cards for veterans are going to veterans homes in Anna, La Salle, Manteno, Quincy, Hines Blind Center, and to Bickford, Symphony at Tillers, Cedarhurst, Hillside, and Alden Waterford, Jennings Terrace, and Symphony of Orchard Valley in Aurora, Oswego, and Yorkville....
July 1, 2022Dear editor; I am disgusted what six Republican-appointed U.S. Supreme Court justices have done with these recent rulings: June 23 – Concealed gun carry without a permit; June 24 – Overturned Roe v Wade; June 30 – Carbon emissions okay, EPA forget it; Upcoming – more tampering, I...
April 25, 2022Dear editor; Vote yes on the June 28 Referendum to provide funding for OFPD (Oswego Fire Protection District) to keep up with our growing safety needs. In 2002, the only thing in town on Route 34 was farmland and the Home Depot and the population was approximately 15,000....
April 30, 2022Dear editor; “Conservatives Under Attack” claim they are victims of relentless attacks by social media, fake news media, federal agencies and the Democratic Party. Their remedies: Shrink the federal government. I learned in school that lack of government is chaos; secure the border with Mexico: Build the wall...
