By: Diane Benjamin Who knew chatting can’t spread COVID! After dinner drinks at the bar doesn’t spread COVID either, Still don’t believe in #FakeNews? See this story by the ISU media about the President of ISU: https://www.wglt.org/post/person-fundraiser-fuels-social-media-safety-buzz Does the picture of Dietz “chatting” show he is following the “rules”? Masks, 6 feet away, etc? It […]
By: Diane Benjamin Another election year, more racists. It is nothing more than a deflection of real issues. We know Black Lives only Matter as a talking point.

By: Diane Benjamin Last night the Planning Commission approved onsite use of cannabis. That makes cannabis just like a bar! Where are the bars? Downtown!

by: Diane Benjamin Facts frequently don’t matter because too many people think with their heart instead of their brain. They twist facts to prove to themselves why conservative values are wrong. Any one who thinks government is their friend falls into this category. Government doesn’t exist to solve problem because: 1) it isn’t their money […]
By: Diane Benjamin Maybe attempting to disguise themselves, the local group uses the initials DSA instead of Democratic Socialists of America.

“All men are created equal” is the creed that makes a diverse nation possible. But a flaw was built into the original construction, which is open to multiple interpretations, including destructive ones.
