Editor: To The Voters of Cedar County: My name is Craig Wamsley and I have been a staff physician at Cedar County Memorial Hospital for the past 13 years. While other opportunities have been available to me over the years, I have chosen to work here. I consider myself a proud and admittedly biased employee.

Editor: Republican Taliban? Republicans debate their opponents, the Taliban decapitate theirs. That makes the above terminology self-contradictive. Just like today’s explosion of fake news. Reality.

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: Once again in this topsy-turvy world of politics we have the pot calling the kettle black. With this brain dead Democratic party we have a host of wanna-be Presidents who can’t do anything but had-mouth the President and call him a traitor for doing the job that the Democrats don’t have the brains or
