We need a change

I want to know just what Obama is paying or promising the media to only report and flower up all his lies and to nitpick at Romney. It seems as though he can't run on his record.

Here's something to think about. Kennedy ran for president. He was the son of a wealthy man who raised his riches by bootlegging in the 1920s. Kennedy was in the Navy, so no stink was raised that he was rich. He had no foreign affairs or economic experience, plus he was a Catholic and no mention of tax returns. Why did he win? Because he was a Democrat.

Now we have Romney, who earned his money, is a Mormon and Obama is harping on his tax returns. He's much more qualified on foreign affairs and economics. Why should it be any different? He's a Republican, that's why.

It would be refreshing to hear Obama tell the truth once but he wouldn't recognize it if it bit him. It seems as though he is following in the footsteps of his Muslim father.

He started January 2009. Notice how the middle class is shrinking? He handcuffed small businesses with rules and regulations. They couldn't grow. Big businesses quit opening new businesses so we're getting smaller every day. I can remember when the middle class was the backbone of this great country. Four more years of Obama will be exactly where he wants us: all rich and poor. More government handouts and no more middle class.

If you Democrats would only see the movie "2016", you might become enlightened to just what is in store for us. It is sad to think that you support someone you don't even know. Hillary said it four years ago and now Bill and Hillary are extolling his lies and they both know him as a liar. Why? I could go on and on but some people don't want to be bothered with finding out.

We need a change real bad.

No way to select a president

The TV networks, TV stations and news media that continually bombard the American voters with the swill labeled "political messages" and produced by both the Democratic and Republic parties are nothing more than political whores.

They greedily accept the millions of dollars to air this garbage without giving any thought to the damage these vile messages are doing to destroy our nation.

This deplorable brainwashing tactic is no way to select a president.

Proud of local dentists

Congratulations to our dentist, Dr. Willey, and his associates, Dr. Obermayr and Dr. Guelff, for giving free care to those who could not afford it. This is an example of the love of Christ.

If every profession would follow the example of these three doctors, we could change our country and everyone would be taken care of and we would not need our government handouts.

We are proud of our dentists and we know God is also.
