Virus protection isn’t religious
So, I read in this paper regarding the letters from churches for religious objections for getting the shot. Interesting! Now the vaccine is not only political, but religious! It makes me laugh to see that some religious orders are giving the letter so freely. Did the sailors refuse all the vaccines when they joined the Navy? And do they give this letter of refusal for the tetanus vaccine? Thank you to Steve Sadin for the article. And thank you News-Sun for making it front page news. And thanks to the religious leaders for refusing to play this game!
Wrong numbers
USA’s virus deaths number close to 700,000 to date. Waukegan’s population is almost 100,000. So that’s “7 cities the size of Waukegan” being wiped out. Are you, your loved ones or kids going to add to that number?
GOP should get on board
I think the contributor that slams Democratic character shouldn’t throw stones at glass houses. You can’t tell me that the GOP doesn’t have many, many “character” deficits of its own to sort out. The contributor seems to value bipartisanship and criticizes the Biden infrastructure bill — in a very emotional way, I might add. The details of the infrastructure bill haven’t even been worked out yet so why doesn’t the GOP get off the sidelines and work out those details with the Democrats? Does the GOP want to be a part of improving life for the average American or not?
We are in control
What we need to start doing, folks here in Lake County, is vote. Get out there and start defending our American schools. Defund American public schools. Pull your kids out of school and show who we are. The parents have the rights over our children, not the federal government. We are the people. We have control over our children, not the government.
Blame Obama
More Top Picks Toilets Camp
Our new government has been corrupted by the new socialist government. And the person that started this is Obama. The Obama administration totally corrupted our military. Anybody can come in and take over our government. And what are you going to do, America? What are you going to do? Hide under a rock? And who are you going to pray to? What are you going to hope for? Somebody else to come in and save you? Nobody is.
