Editor, When we actually hear and see how many people clap, cheer, jeer at the press and enjoy Trump’s battles with the press, it is plain to see how many of us humans do actually follow and express the Trump character traits and values promoting fear, anger, casting blame and the other very negative and disturbing behavior patterns of our species. It will be interesting to witness, over the next few years, just how this 24/7 very audible and visual human-behavioral exercise actually comes to life in various ways. Let’s not only stay tuned but actively promote the better aspects of our species. And let’s each do this in whatever way feels right for us indivi...
Editor, We’ve seen so many grumpy and sad faces the last several months; it was a tremendous pleasure to see so many happy and smiling faces at the Mission Mountain Enterprise annual picnic at Boettcher Park last Thursday. We’d like to thank executive director Lauren Oliver and all h...
Editor, I am writing to encourage fellow Montanans to cast their vote for an outstanding candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives, Kathleen Williams. Williams served three terms in the Montana House, and while there, she was instrumental in passing bipartisan expansion of Medicaid, s...

Editor, It has been over a decade since Howard Dean admitted why there was not one word of tort reform in “ObamaCare.” It had everything to do with money grubbing by trial lawyers. Thanks to the Democrats and Steve Bullock, this glaring fault in Obama’s efforts to nationalize our h...
Editor, The past five months have been a little rough on my sister, who’s sequestered at St. Joseph Assisted Living in Polson. Sure, she receives three meals a day and lots of love and care from the staff. But those ingredients that help make life worth living – independence, affection, ...
Editor, As research is gathered about COVID-19 pandemic, a sobering finding is that many people who get the disease will have health problems long after they have recovered from the infection. Many will have kidney damage, heart tissue damage or lung damage. COVID-19 can be much more than a two-week...
Editor, A great big thank you to U.S. Veteran Dr. Rashid Buttar, M.D., and Dr. Pam Popper, naturopath, for expertly and courageously making it clear that the current SARS-2/CoVid-19 pandemic scare is truly a spiritual battle that must be confronted. As Americans, we embrace being free agen...
