Letters to the Editor

Editor: Cedar County Elected Leaders have been lied to, lead to believe what they were told. Ha. Well, don’t feel bad it happens to all of us at some point in time. SB 391 passed with the signature of Governor Mike Parsons. Our Leaders in Cedar County thought Parsons was a good ole boy, could

Editor: I love responses to my op-ed pieces and always have since I started writing at age 13. However, when a reader responds to me, there is no need to put quotation marks around anything. Angela is my legal name and she is my legal pronoun and wife, one of my titles, as well as

Editor: I have noticed several times while traveling south on Main Street (Hwy. 82), situations where the traffic has had to allow oncoming cars to clear before proceeding to avoid hitting a parked vehicle. I know of at least one accident that has happened because of this situation. The City fathers need to address this

Editor: I am writing today to let you know how I feel about Cedar County Memorial Hospital. I have worked at Cedar County Memorial Hospital both full time and prn. What I have found while working in the hospital was employees got in and learned how to do their job and many times other jobs

Editor: Thinking about “Angela’s” wish for more Muslims in congress, I wonder if “she” gets her wish, and Islam takes over America (our destruction is their goal), will “Angela” want to remain a “she,” become the property, one of a Muslim man’s “wives” but owned much like a goat (they prefer goats over cows) and

Editor: Here we go again. Another government entity, the Cedar County Memorial Hospital board, want to tax property. As far as I can tell, property, farmland, cattle, equipment, etc., has no need for a hospital. A hospital is only good for people. What you need is a people tax. After all, it’s the people who

It is so interesting to watch the political scene unfold day by day. When Obama was in the office of President, the Democrats had a built in answer if you did not like either him or his policies, “You’re just racist.” So, we bit the bullet and put up with eight years of our nation

The Northeast Vernon County R-I community has lost a legend. Freda Flint was the brain, heart and soul of the Schell City school and eventually the Northeast Vernon County school district for many years. She began her service in the early 1950’s and continued until 2012! Freda was well known and respected for her knowledge

Editor: The arrest of a St. Charles County man for allegedly strangling, stomping and dismembering cats he’d acquired through Craigslist ads is a reminder of the dangers of giving animals away without proper screening and other precautions. “Free to a good home” ads are magnets for cruel and psychotic people who seek easy victims for
