Three Cheers!

Three cheers for the Observer team. I don't believe there's anything worse than a corrupt public official; especially one with the power to prosecute and destroy citizens lives and/or reputations. Keep up the good work guys.

Elder Abuse

Dear Mr. Snook,

I read your story about Wisconsin's state sanctioned elder abuse, and it frightened the hell out of me...

How does something like this occur? Was it that Harlan Shigeko didn't have a will or a living trust?

I'm mortified that could happen to me if I outlive my husband. Please let me know, we do have a trust, but who's to say it'll protect you from people intent on doing you harm. Thank you for bringing light on this subject.

I think that Governor Jim Doyle should be impeached to protect the rest of Wisconsin's elderly resisents. He needs to be prosecuted for abusing his office and wrongly imprisoning a woman who isn't mentally ill, also round up that Psychiatrist Dr. Reddy for duplicity of their crimes. Doesn't that state have a district attorney? These corrupt people need to be brought to justice! Or our country is just full of crap...If the DA is crooked, then I think our Attorney General needs to step in and clean house...this just shouldn't be happening here in the US.

Sincerely,

Editors Note: Gloria - Today is a very discouraging time and although you might not hear of tragic stories like this one often, they do occur. In most cases the “system” is set up to protect itself and the only known cure that has worked for us is exposure through media. Fortunately, Jim Doyle isn’t running for office again, unfortunately, the next Governor will take over his responsibility. Rest assured that we will continue to expose the abuse and blatant pillage of Shigeko’s life. As for your trust, I’d get a second, third and fourth opinion.

BLM Ranger Finch

Sir:

If you're looking for more instances of Mr. Finch being a complete ass, I have some. They're first person (not something I heard somebody else say) contacts with Mr. Finch.Yes. He needs to go. Actually, he needs to be prosecuted for his criminal acts and censured for his behavior.

I have contacted his local (Medford OR BLM office) boss in regard to Mr. Finch. I was told, only, that it would be '..looked into.'

Didn't hear any more about it.

Mr. Finch is a loose cannon; an ANGRY, abusive man with a HUGE temper.

JERKS

Editor;

I read your article and it brought back memories of experiences I have had with jerks like Finch. I live in Mississippi so I guess these type guys are everywhere. Don't let up on them, cockroaches always run when the light is shined on them.

BLM

Dear Editor;

It is appalling that we have such tools as finch on government payroll. He had no right to terrorize that family. I can only hope they get swift justice from our courts.

I am worried that BLM, forest service, and other outdoor law enforcement have a biased negative opinion for people who ride dirt bikes and ATV's.

I can only hope that these tactics are not from government training. Harassment like this will lead to someone getting killed by either law enforcement officers or unarmed citizens.

Sincerely,

States vs Feds

Editor;

As far as I am concerned the state of Arizona is totally within their rights to stand up for the citizens of the state. If the Federal Government won’t do their job it is up to Arizona and it’s citizens to do it.

I too stand with Arizona. And any other state that wants to pass the same kind of law.

Thank you

Divorce Agreement

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists and Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950's for the sake of the kids, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but sadly, this relationship has clearly run its course.
Our two ideological sides of America cannot and will not ever agree on what is right for us all, so let's just end it on friendly terms. We can smile and chalk it up to irreconcilable differences and go our own way.

HERE IS A MODEL SEPARATION AGREEMENT:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a similar portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that, it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes.

We don't like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU. Since you hate guns and war, we'll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA and the military. We'll take the nasty, smelly oil industry and you can go with wind, solar and biodiesel. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore and Rosie O'Donnell. You are, however, responsible for finding a bio-diesel vehicle big enough to move all three of them.

We'll keep capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart and Wall Street. You can have your beloved lifelong welfare dwellers, food stamps, homeless, homeboys, hippies, druggies and illegal aliens. We'll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO's and rednecks. We'll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood .

You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we'll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we'll help provide them security.

We'll keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, political correctness and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N. but we will no longer be paying the bill.

We'll keep the SUV's, pickup trucks and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon you can find.

You can give everyone healthcare if you can find any practicing doctors. We'll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We'll keep "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" and "The National Anthem." I'm sure you'll be happy to substitute "Imagine", "I'd Like to Teach the World to Sing", "Kum Ba Ya" or "We Are the World".

We'll practice trickle down economics and you can continue to give trickle up poverty your best shot.
Since it often so offends you, we'll keep our history, our name and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so, please pass it along to other like-minded liberal and conservative patriots and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I'll bet you answer which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
