Letter: War policy must come to end

I immediately recognized last September the Benghazi attack and official response was a marked departure from American foreign policy.

Track officials need to pay attention

It is a real shame that the Worthington track program doesn’t take enough pride in their program to at the very least have individuals running the throwing events that care just a little bit about it.

Letter: Suggestions for NRA, income tax

If the NRA would encourage everyone to get a background check, regardless of whether or not they wished to buy a gun, it would eliminate the chance of the government using that information to confiscate guns.

Letter: Let’s look for ways to continue farming legacies

What will be your farm’s legacy? We often think of our legacy as related to our farm’s financial success. Our legacy will show how we were able to weather hard times — floods, droughts, hot weather, cool weather, low prices, pests, weeds, the farming crisis of the ’80s, changes in production methods and other enormous challenges. Our legacy will show that not only did our farm survive, it prospered. Maybe it even grew in numbers of acres or livestock.

Letter: 'Agriculture is not a distraction’

House Ag Policy Chairwoman Jeanne Poppe recently said I was “fanning political flames” over my disgust with the House Democrat majority decision to hand over agriculture and rural development finance decisions to a member from Minneapolis, who I believe, has voted against all but one agriculture finance omnibus bill since 1998.

Letter: More economic good news

With tax revenue collections once again exceeding the expectations of state economists, last session’s legislative decision to reform how government operates and live within its means continues to pay dividends. We made some tough choices last session, but the economy has responded. We’ve exceeded expectations consistently for well over a year, and Minnesotans should be pleased with this economic progress.

Letter: Wadena proves a great Minnesota still exists

This past Sunday, June 17th, marked the two-year anniversary of the EF4 tornado that ravaged the City of Wadena —damaging over 400 homes, 20 businesses, the community center, ice arena and our high school. Over many months, hundreds of Minnesotans helped us clear the debris, attend to our loved ones, and cope from this natural disaster. They donated their time, talent, and resources toward our recovery. For that, we remain eternally grateful.

Letter: Early Risers support painting project

Members of Early Risers Kiwanis, who weren’t able to physically paint on the schoolhouse and front office building, donated to purchase hours given in service by the high school AOK (Art Optimist Kiwanis) Club. The club worked vigorously after school for 34 hours until the end of the school year. Gail Holinka, adviser to the AOK Club, strongly encouraged the service project and even personally picked up the brush.

Letter: Commissioners letting Ruppert have his way

I’m going to do something I said I’d never do, but I think it’s time that I say something about this topic publicly. I was Nobles County Emergency Management Director for four-and-a-half years until January 2011, when I decided to end my employment with the county due to the position being cut to 24 hours a week.

Letter: Would Parry listen to all sides? Doubtul

Letter: Would Parry listen to all sides? Doubtul After reading about last Friday’s campaign stop by just-announced GOP candidate for Congress Mike Parry, I have to take issue with the suggestion that his record as a member of the Minnesota Senate since 2010 shows he could “work together with all bodies and listen to different viewpoints to help solve an issue.”
