LETTER: Good enough to retype
I would like to compliment Mr. Roger Argo, of Dalton Gardens, for his letter to the editor Jan. 23. Mr. Argo’s letter had two redeeming features: 1. It was short, and 2. It was an original thought. Even though his …
LETTER: No defense for John Kerry
I have been reading these letters in the Press for many years. There has never been one that has pulled my chain as badly as this letter from a (so-called USAF Major) Ron Johnson.
Levy takes center stage
It's a free country, which means you can vote without having the foggiest notion what you're voting on, or even why. Unfortunately, an uninformed vote counts exactly the same as one that is based on meticulous anal…
REGAN: Society's sad commentary
This whole “racist remark” debacle is a sad example of what is going wrong in our country. Are we really going to sacrifice a decent, hard working, caring man for doing nothing more than pointing out the obvious? T…
REGAN: Call for an investigation
Thanks to your trustee Regan, racism is once again, alive and well in Cd’A, Idaho. In front of 100 people and legislators he made a comment about gun control and said that people could not figure out what an assaul…
REGAN: Apology demeaned him
I am appalled at the absurd reaction to Mr. Regan’s remark. It is amazing how fast the extreme left wing anti-constitutional Human Rights Task Force springs into action.
BLOGS: Short on civility at cdapress
For several years I have been posting on the Press’s online newspaper (blog). Many post there anonymously. Over the years I have watched as the posts, particularly the anonymous ones, have grown increasingly uncivi…
REMARK: Bad taste, not racist
Fortunately, I was present at the Post Falls American Legion at our Legislative Town Hall meeting, on Saturday, 26 January. I witnessed Brent Reagen’s now famous “Just like Obama, black and scary” quote.
LABRADOR: Right about immigration
I read with dismay the letter from Carolyn Cooke in Wednesday’s letters column. I feel she is totally wrong in her views.
ABORTION: Set a moral example
In response to Laura Rose’s letter about “Roe is here to stay,” you asked the question of a man, what he has done in his life to help women prevent unintended pregnancy. You then tried to give him the correct answe…
No blinders on this vision
Local historians, take note. And make sure you're sitting down.
REGAN: Good riddance to PC
I have had it with all of the political correctness of today. Why does Brent Regan need to apologize to anyone when his statement was indeed based on fact as he sees it? President Obama is indeed half black (he dis…
REMARK: View from 'other side'
Tony Stewart, secretary for the human relations task force, is not happy with the apology given by Brent Regan, about a comment his wife made. Curious how when the other side makes a mistake an apology is never eno…
MILITIA: Who should lead us?
J.D. Gaines says in his letter to the editor on 1/27/2013 that in his opinion I am wrong when I stated that the Constitution of the United States requires that citizens belong to a “well-regulated militia” in order…
SCAM: Almost caught in a bad net
The Jan. 29 Press article re: the “bail money” scam is exactly my experience.
