Letter to the Editor: Harley-Davidson rumors prove false

I am concerned about misinformation spreading through Kirksville which needs to be corrected. The false rumor is that supposedly our city government received and turned down an offer from the Harley-Davidson Company to build a plant in Kirksville. There was never any such offer made by the Harley-Davidson Company to our community. In fact, this [...]

Letter to the Editor: Political correctness doesn’t solve issues

Limbaugh’s comments about Fluke were right on, he just says it like it is in the real world of doers. Talkers in the PC world hide and watch, then cry foul and wimper and whine. This country was built by doers and, again, you PC wimps could learn more by doing than crying. You want [...]

Letter to the Editor: Missouri caucus embarrasses GOP

I am writing about the embarrassment that some have called the Missouri Republican Caucus of 2012. Missouri held both a Republican primary and caucus this year. Because the primary election violated rules established by the national GOP, Missouri was threatened with the loss of half its delegates. However, the primary could not be canceled due [...]

Fellow members of the Student Association, When deciding upon one’s representative leaders, one must choose wisely. April 2-4, we as a student body will have the difficult task of choosing our leadership for the 2012-2013 academic year. It is with this letter that I personally give my full endorsement for Aaron Malin for the office [...]

Letter to the Editor: Student endorses Malin for president

To The Student Body of Truman State University, Our University is facing difficult times in which leadership becomes increasingly important. I believe we have a great leader in President Paino; I cannot express how lucky we are to have such a strong President during these times. However, the student body needs its own solid representation. [...]

Letter to the Editor: Complacency has led to Santorum primary wins

Rick Santorum says American law should never violate Biblical commands and often it doesn’t. For example, both prohibit murder and theft. Yet, the conflicts are enormous. American law nourishes capitalism while the Bible would destroy it by commanding us to sell all we own and give the proceeds to the poor. The Constitution protects Freedom [...]

Letter to the Editor: Committee attempts to save grass alley

I would like to bring the reader’s attention to an initiative being taken by local residents such as myself. For the past seven months we have been working to save the last public green space between the TSU campus and Downtown: a grass-covered alley located in the 400 block of South Franklin Street. Until recent [...]

Letter to the Editor: Military deaths need more honor, respect

I believe you are misinterpreting the Facebook posts that are being made about the “comparison” of Whitney Houston and service members. There is no comparison of the two, I agree. The Facebook posts that are being made, some of which I have posted myself, are not comparing Whitney Houston and other drug addict celebrities with [...]

Letter to the Editor: Local Council must support businesses

May I give a strictly personal take on the economic debate that is raging globally, nationally and locally regarding what to do about the still lamentably poor and sluggish economy in chronic crisis of capitalism no politicians on this earth seem to have adequately resolved? Nearly a decade now ago you see I had the [...]

Letter to the Editor: Misleading cartoon defames group

I am writing in response to the appalling illustration recently written in the Truman Index. While I don’t necessarily support the One Million Moms organization, I am disgusted when I see unfounded propaganda in this paper. The cartoon shows that One Million Moms is against Ellen DeGeneres, but it also implies that the parents of [...]
