It must be difficult to constantly deny proven facts and defend inane statements made by GOP politicos.The Sun Journal published FBI records disproving Gov. Paul LePage’s little binder on drug dealers being 90 percent black and Hispanic, etc., LePage claims that was not a racist statement — duh. Liberals have ruined the world by seeking […]

Let Gov. LePage finish term
The backlash against Gov. Paul LePage is all “much ado about nothing” or “making a mountain out of a molehill.” I am willing to bet that most voters do not want LePage to go anywhere. Let him finish his second term so it will take longer for the liberals to undo the positive changes he […]

Four more years?
Hillary Clinton’s speech, re: Bosnia, 1996: “I remember landing under sniper fire. There was supposed to be some kind of a greeting ceremony at the airport, but instead we just ran with our heads down to get into the vehicles to get to our base.” She later said, “There was no greeting ceremony, and we […]

School budget outrageous
I live in Otisfield. I found the budget for Oxford Hills schools online. I was shocked at what I found. The salaries for administration are, of course, a fraction of the total budget. They were listed as being: Superintendent, $121,000; assistant superintendent, $105,000; secretary, $63,000; principal (high school), $105,000; assistant principal, $176,000 (typo?); secretary, $98,000; […]

Keim will support wage earners
A Maine legislator needs a breadth of knowledge and a commitment to all of the District 18 voters. I support Lisa Keim, who will represent all Maine wage earners and numerous residents who are jobless. Her passion for education will bode well as a member of the Maine State Senate. I can envision Keim collaborating […]

Baffled by Trump’s support
First off, I have been listed as an independent on the voting rolls for more than 30 years. The reason being, I became disillusioned with the way politicians carry on in the U.S. Congress. I have always voted for the person I thought most qualified, regardless of their party affiliation. That said, as upset with […]

Handy will make a difference
I heartily support Jim Handy to represent District 58 in the Maine House of Representatives. Residents should have such a person working to make a difference in this community and state. For years Handy has brought his welcoming, wise and upbeat presence to community issues that matter. For 18 years he served with other Lewiston […]

Remembering VJ Day
I looked at the calendar and was reminded that Sept. 2 was VJ Day — victory in Japan. The war with Japan was over. The boys and girls were coming home. Gasoline was off rationing. Booze flowed freely. Everyone was so happy. It was over. People could live in peace. But that was just the […]

Baseless, petty name-calling
The photo on the Sun Journal’s front page Wednesday, Aug. 31, demonstrates how the liberal biased media has successfully misinformed the public about Gov. Paul LePage. The woman at center right of the photo holds a sign that says: “Say NO to a Racist Gov!”. I doubt she even knows that the governor took in […]
