Tea party
As I understand it, the tea party was formed to reduce government spending and size, reduce the national debt, lower taxes, create jobs by offering tax incentives to small business, reduce foreign aid, and return our country to the value system that made us successful in the first place. Wow!
That is radical, seeing as how we have a state and federal government that doesn't have a clue how to achieve any of these. I think I'll join.
Dr. Martin
I am writing in response to the letter about Dr. Martin by
Almost two years ago I got his name and made an appointment. I paid
He was so kind and caring and spent a long time going over everything. He never rushed me or tired to hurry me up.
He did a wonderful job in surgery and checked on me three times before day of surgery. Also he checked on me twice the next morning before I was released. I felt I could not have any better care by anyone else. His office does those scans free of charge so he is not bilking the insurance company. If I had not paid the money for the scan, I may not be alive today. He is the best.
Candidates
Political candidate
What is wrong with this grammar? Would we want a president to be known throughout the world for speaking "so eloquently"? I think (and hope) not. We would be the laughing stock.
How about rephrasing the sentence as, "This is not a day for quitting anything." He should try to remember the federal departments he wants to do away with before he goes on the air.
School board
Four years ago, the school board asked the county for
So, what did the bureaucrats who really run the school board do? They took the money out of the general fund that pays teacher salaries, buys textbooks and funds everyday operating costs, and went ahead and bought the software anyway.
Now, these officials, say the software doesn't work. The software company wants an opportunity to cure any problems. Sure sounds like this mess is heading toward an expensive contractual lawsuit that will costs taxpayers more money.
The problems with the school board are easy to fix. Currently, the chief operating officer and the school superintendent make all the crucial decisions. The school board members act as a rubber stamp. Why? Because the school board members are appointed and not elected by county voters in contested elections.

It's past time for
Dynamic duo

Words will never be able to sum up the gratitude that is felt for these men. I am sure my feelings are shared by many.
To go to work every day to expect the unexpected and to perform with perfection as a team is an amazing accomplishment. I am sure they have both worked Christmas, 4th of July, and family celebrations, and have done so willingly.
Public servants seldom get the recognition they deserve. In this case I hope they will realize how very much their work has been appreciated by letters like this one and a simple thank you.
