Reader’s Voice: Opinion: “Sticks and stones” weird

August 27, 2024Dear editor; It has become fashionable for some politicians to call their opponents “weird”. How clever!

Reader’s Commentary: Mainstream media ignores trafficking, Harris flip flopping

By Bela “Bill” Suhayda Comrade Kamala Harris with her San Francisco values took her “emotional support” vice presidential pick “Tampon Tim” Walz to her first interview since becoming the Democratic presidential nominee.

First amendment rights still cherished goal

By John & Nisha Whitehead What you smell is the stench of a dying republic. Our dying republic. We are trapped in a political matrix intended to sustain the illusion that we are citizens of a constitutional republic. In reality, we are caught somewhere between a kleptocracy (a government ruled...

Reader’s Commentary: Biden/Harris inflation leads to empty shelves

Reader’s Commentary: In defense of Donald Trump; against recent attacks

By Bela “Bill” Suhayda I’ve had an unfortunate experience reading an arrogant, hate-filled conspiracy piece in the August 1 edition of The Voice, page 6. It was in the “musings about hate and assassinations” section written by “The Chas” Coddington. One ridiculous assertion of the piece dealt with the attempted...

By Bela “Bill” Suhayda My family arrived here in the United States in 1957 during the Eisenhower administration.

U.S. government seeks to re-shape totalitarian image

By John & Nisha Whitehead The U.S. government is working to re-shape the country in the image of a totalitarian state. It has remained true over the past 50-plus years no matter which political party held office. It will remain true no matter who wins the 2024 presidential election. In...

Reader’s Voice: Joe Biden still with it

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...

Smith wrote that Oregon’s deaths from drug overdose increased substantially after 2020 when drugs were decriminalized in the State, implying that this was the cause. Cherry-picked data often lead to inaccurate conclusions....

Chaos reigns, SWAT-team raids, prevail

By John & Nisha Whitehead Sometimes 10 seconds is all the warning you get. Sometimes you don’t get a warning before all hell breaks loose. Imagine it, if you will: It’s the middle of the night. Your neighborhood is in darkness. Your household is asleep. Suddenly, you’re awakened by a...

Reader’s Voice: Animal Welfare, cultivated meat

November 20, 2023Dear editor; Politicians love to pay lip service to animal welfare, and yet so few of them hold the position that would do most to relieve the suffering of our fellow creatures. That would be supporting increased public funding for cultivated-meat research. For readers who aren’t familiar with...

Reader’s Commentary: Gruesom statistics should be understood, not attacked

By Bela “Bill” SuhaydaSugar Grove, Ill. The dementia-riddled man in the White House works for Ukraine, China, Romania, and now Iran. He doesn’t work for you. Always verify the worth of a man by what he does, not by what he says. The proof is always in the pudding. Donald...

Reader’s Commentary: No reason to reduce our CO2 emissions today

By Bela “Bill” SuhaydaSugar Grove, Ill. The sun, with its warming and cooling cycles, is by far the largest variable to the warming or cooling of our planet. It is actually the only source of light and heat energy excluding lava flows. Nothing else even comes close to having the...

Reader’s Commentary: Democrats: Men can become pregnant; will eat insects

By Bela “Bill” Suhayda Democratic Party members can’t define what a woman is. They believe men can become pregnant and the Earth is being destroyed by Climate Change caused by CO2 and cow farts! And, so it is, we will be eating insects rather than New York Strip at our...
