Reader’s Voice: No religious values in U.S. Constitution

On By admin

May 2, 2023Dear editor; In consecutive commentaries published in The Voice, Bela “Bill” Suhayda writes of the Judeo-Christian values that our Nation’s founding fathers, as Christian men, inserted into the U.S. Constitution. Reading Mr. Suhayda’s discourses prompted me to reread my copy of that esteemed document. What I found was...

Reader’s Voice: Be wary of gaslighting

On By admin

April 27, 2023Dear editor; I think that gaslighting in the City of Lights (Aurora) needs to be addressed. Gaslighting is a way of twisting truth with a finesse about it. It uses hyperbole to get you to believe what is not exactly true. In America, the big one is that...

Reader’s Voice: A sense of outrage on Mr. Trump

On By admin

April 10, 2023Dear editor; G.O.P. stalwarts made headlines crying, “Unfair treatment under the law!” in response to southern Manhattan’s D.A. Bragg’s announcement to indict the G.O.P.’s puppet-master. Conservative commentator S.E. Cupp fired a well-aimed fusillade at Fox Network’s chief propagandists, Carlson, Hannity, et.al. blasting their supposed outrage: “They weren’t outraged...

Reader’s Voice: Aurora can revert: Place for all

On By admin

March 13, 2023Dear editor; “I Sold my Soul to the Company Store.” That is the title to an old song often sung by Tennessee Ernie Ford. I thought it describes very well our current City Hall government in Aurora. With its rules of loyalty, a specific lingo, and misuse of...

February 25, 2023 Dear editor; I’ve been living in the Lakewood Springs Club Community for a few months now. There are way too many rules that are a bit on the petty side of things. We moved into this Club to enjoy our lives and break away from the craziness...

Reader’s Voice: False equivalency in plain sight

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...

Reader’s Voice: The HOA restrictions excessive

On By admin

January 1, 2023Dear editor; I feel that it’s not right that the HOA (Homeowners Association) in Plano’s Lakewood Springs doesn’t allow six-foot fences on our property. Four feet won’t prevent my dog from jumping over. It doesn’t give me privacy, either. We can’t have a painted fence. It has to...

Reader’s Voice: Whitehead commentary lacks substance

On By admin

December 28, 2022Dear editor; I appreciate the John and Nisha Whiteheads’ effort to warn of the “undermining” of the U.S. Constitution by Congress, the White House, and the courts. However, the Whiteheads’ commentary lacks real substance behind exaggerated, inflammatory, and at times, dubious rhetoric. They state: “We are in the...

November 2, 2022Dear editor; This is in response to “First Amendment, Bill of Rights Key to Democracy” by John and Nisha Whitehead in The Voice October 13.
