RACISM: Not hard to connect dots
What a horrible face a few radical dimwits put on Coeur d’Alene and North Idaho. The almost unbelievable treatment given to our honored guests, the University of Utah basketball team competing in the prestigious NC…
ISSUES: One superb, the other a monstrosity
I would like to make two comments that have been on my mind.
ELECTION: Time now to do your research
We have corruption in all walks of organized people-controlled society. This corruption is within our religious churches, libraries, school boards, medical boards, city councils, county, state, federal governments …
NOISE: Sounding off on some concerns
In response to Mr. Steed, I agree with most your comment because I didn’t just build a house by the airport, bucko. I’ve been in my 1947 home in the Garden District Coeur d’Alene for 25 years. My husband was born a…
CDA: Proud of your beautiful city
My husband and I happened to be visiting the Coeur d’Alene area shortly after the racist incident occurred and were shocked by it.
VITRIOL: Condemn it in all forms
WOW, what a mountain of letters I have seen since the people who said the nasty things to the team. So many people up in arms about it!
MORALITY: Decide values to live by
Alas, as if there isn’t enough to worry about already, a new threat to the peace of our democracy has reared its ugly head.
SHERMAN: A pox on Saturday business
To the abortion protesters and the Trump Train folks who make noise every Saturday on Sherman: We are trying to work and carry on with running our businesses.
HOTEL: What it is — and what it isn't
I appreciate Joan Woodard's concerns that "Urban anywhere USA" Marriott has arrived in the form of a Branded Marriott product. It would be a bonus to see integrated use of materials to fit our brick and stone facad…
HOSPITAL: Rendered superior service
I was a recent outpatient surgery with overnight stay patient at Kootenai Health, CDA. I cannot express how well I was treated and the care and compassion I received as a patient.
CITIZENS: Beware of unethical judges
Unethical judges in Kootenai County? Say it isn’t so. I wouldn’t have thought it until I was “involved” in a civil case.
PARTIES: Here’s one disturbing similarity
Thanks to Doug Miller’s “Parties: Darn right there’s a difference,” Coeur d’Alene Press, Sunday, March 24. It struck a nerve.
COLUMN: The bully strikes again
In his latest column (https://cdapress.com/news/2024/mar/22/opinion-party-on-gem-state-heist/) Brent Regan chooses to do what most bullies do. When they are outsmarted or can’t admit to facts, they lash out with li…
RECYCLE: If not now, when?
Are we someday going to get serious about recycling in Coeur d’Alene? The first Earth Day was many years ago…
POLICE: Thanks to Chief White, officers
In today’s climate, where law enforcement often faces more criticism than praise, I felt compelled to write a letter of gratitude to Chief Lee White and his dedicated officers at the Coeur d’Alene Police Dept.
