LETTER: Grow up, Ekko
First of all, I can’t imagine how sad and lonely you must be. You are most likely someone who has never had love or compassion come from a woman, and for that I pity you. Women in the 1920s took a backseat because …
IRS: Heard loud and clear
Recently the Cd’A Press published my letter about an IRS article asking charitable groups to report Social Security numbers of donors. I said that would mean massive work for charities, discourage donors and create…
REFUGEES: Rules for citizenship
Why can’t we learn from Australia? Australia has principles and rules to live by and refugees are told to abide by them or leave the country.
TERMINAL: Speak out against it
In the wake of the international climate negotiations in Paris, human-caused climate change is in the news as a pressing human and political issue. While many high-level politicians continue to make unbinding agree…
Editorial: The real issue is violence
We won’t shed tears with President Obama over his executive action last week, a move that likely won’t reduce the number of people killed by gunfire. The president overstepped his authority and Congress has nobody …
REVIEW: Top stories on target
As it is a common practice for each of us to take a look back at the end of a calendar year, I especially appreciate the end of the year reviews by the media. I thought the Top 10 list of regional stories for 2015 …

Open letter to Post Falls Mayor and Council:
REFUGEES: Advice for Sandpoint
We see where the Sandpoint City Council had a town meeting about taking in refugees from Syria and other countries. Every day we see what is taking place in Europe with the influx of these heartless thugs: Rape and…
Ranking the state's priorities
Idaho is among the national leaders in job growth, yet lags far behind many others in compensation.
WOMEN: Clearly, not a fan

OBAMA: Impeach him, Congress
I read the comments from Idaho’s congressional delegation (Raul Labrador, Jim Risch, Mike Simpson and Mike Crapo) reacting to President Obama’s Tuesday executive orders aimed at preventing gun violence. This presid…
CDA: Leaders aren't leading
In Tuesday’s paper it states, “Dan English sworn in tonight on city council.”
GOP: Go ahead and register
In Idaho, everyone should register Republican. Unless you are in blue dot Moscow, only Republicans win in Idaho, so elections are actually decided in the primary just like former confederate states that only voted …
