The Daily News has never been more correct than when it predicted that “the show in the Capitol on (Jan. 6) will probably be ugly and frustrating, but it will ultimately end in the correct outcome for our nation and our democracy.” Read more
Let me get this straight. You decide to have a revolution. You attack a government building with the elected officials inside. By the way, the leader you follow didn't attend. He told you he was coming with you, but he lied. There were bombs and guns. Some among you were going to kill, I gue… Read more

I met Joe Denning when I moved to Bowling Green in 1971. Throughout his decades of public service, whether it be the school board or city commissioner, I found him to be a good listener. Although we have been good friends, he didn’t always vote on an issue the way I had hoped. He was fair. T… Read more

The process of confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett to the U.S. Supreme Court and the reactions of the Democrat senators is yet another example of how politicians can resort to hypocrisy and shamefully distort clear facts. Read more
Now that the election is over, I thought it would be interesting to look at how many Christians balanced their religious convictions with their political loyalties. Read more
I was disheartened to see The Washington Times opinion piece (“History of hypocrisy plagues Biden’s message of unity”) in Sunday’s Daily News. I had hoped that our Bowling Green newspaper might step up to become one of the healing voices we need right now in the country – and here in our loc… Read more
Really, Associated Press? As President-Pretend Joe Biden basks in artificially ramped-up media glory, you are clearly helping to propagate this false veneer of victory. He is NOT president-elect, until either Donald Trump cedes the election to him or Congress certifies the electoral process Jan. 6. Read more
I have always said when voting on Election Day when we all go to vote you should vote for the person who is best qualified for the job. And it was proven to me again this election. Everyone seems to vote for the party instead of the individual running for office. People vote for party whethe… Read more

The 2020 elections are now in progress, and we in Bowling Green have a whopping 10 candidates from whom to choose as either mayor or city commissioner. The one commissioner candidate that I have actually worked with the most is attorney Carlos Bailey. Read more
I want to thank Ms. Kim Lindgren for raising an important issue in her letter to the editor Oct. 7. The coronavirus pandemic is dangerous for everyone, but especially for immunocompromised patients who rely on regular, in-person treatments for diseases such as cancer. One way to help cancer … Read more

I am saddened and appalled by the actions of Mayor Bruce Wilkerson to attack a duly elected city official based on an undergraduate student report which she had no involvement in at all. This vicious attack against Commissioner Dana Beasley-Brown brings public discourse in the city to a new low. Read more
It has become fashionable to label COVID-19 as Trump virus. This designation is made by many politicians and pundits who consider themselves smart and knowledgeable. Even though it doesn’t seem to matter to them that the deadly virus was not concocted in Trump’s White House, and before Pelos… Read more
As a transplant from Oxford, Miss., we have lived in Bowling Green for 32 years. Our neighbors one street over, Deborah and Rick Williams, are the best. Read more
Four years ago we elected a President who had zero governing experience. Why? Because we thought he was a fabulously successful businessman. We asked to see his tax returns, which was standard procedure for every presidential candidate before him. Read more
I know E. Dilon Siddens, who was sentenced Sept. 1 to three life terms without parole. Read more
“The Department of Homeland Security started an effort a year ago this month to address domestic terrorism, white nationalist threats and other acts of homegrown violence,” The New York Times announced in its Sept. 1 edition. Read more

After reading Larry Herrin’s rather incoherent letter of Sept. 25, with his Third Reich fantasies and dire warnings of the political collapse of our country, it is obvious that the Fearmonger-in-Chief has found exactly the right person to terrify. Read more
At this point in time one has to wonder if our fearless leader cares about nursing home residents and their families. Read more
I’d like to put in a plug for Bowling Green’s trees. Every candidate for Mayor or City Commission should be asked about their vision for the city’s tree canopy. Read more
Open letter to Mitch McConnell Read more
I agree with the editorial from the Sunday Sept. 20 newspaper regarding ethical violations by city employees and elected officials. I too believe that these individuals, if found guilty of illegal or unethical behavior should be required to pay for all legal fees incurred. If I during the co… Read more
Today I rode my bicycle through Bowling Green and was appalled at the number of Democrat signs. Have they not learned their lesson? It worries me that my neighbors seem to care little for the future of the nation. November is decision time ... Shall we remain a free prosperous country or bec… Read more

We should look more toward God for our needs Read more
Like Nero playing his proverbial violin as Rome burned, politics continue to be played while our planet continues to heat up. Siberia at 100 degrees, giant calving glaciers, fires and floods; we seem to have come to accept them as we do divisive politics in Washington. COVID and an election … Read more
The promises of God are sources of consolation for living. They are riches making the most spiritually impoverished soul rich by His love and grace. There are nuggets that teach us "Not one word of His promises which He gave by the hand of Moses His servant has failed" (1 Kgs. 8:56). While m… Read more
It was sad to see the Daily News endorse Sen. Mitch McConnell in an opinion piece by insinuating that Amy McGrath would be a tool of the left.

I’ve been wondering why the Postal Service board would name Louis DeJoy as our toxically controversial postmaster general. It seems we have Sen. Mitch McConnell to thank. Read more
Let’s get real everybody. Joe Biden isn’t the Democratic candidate for president. By default he got the nomination.

Said "Prudent Person" would first assess their health, knowing that both severity and n… Read more
Human slavery. A thing of the past, right? Read more
It greatly concerns me to hear the socialist promises and dreams of some high political candidates today. Our country will forever be changed as many of our cherished freedoms and rights may be eliminated if these candidates are put in charge of our nation. Read more
I was shocked, but not surprised, to see in the paper that WKU has removed the historical marker noting that Bowling Green, for a short time in 1862, was the Confederate capital of the state. Read more
COVID-19 broke into the new decade as an unwelcome visitor with deadly intentions. We are going to emerge from it stronger or weaker for it, and to me the only path to stronger is all together or not at all. Read more
The Aug. 21 op-ed by the Daily News asserts that WKU should step back from the investigation of the white supremacist pasts of Robert Ogden and Pleasant J. Potter. The paper believes it is nothing more than a radical agenda. Read more
