We Must Make The Wise Choice For Our Grandchildren

 We in Staunton have a choice to make.  It is up to us.  Shall we choose solar energy ? Twenty one years ago, I was adopted into the Shenandoah family, Wolf Clan, Oneida Nation of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy (People of the Long House).   White people call them Iroquois. We are taught to listen to our elders, learn to respect and act responsibly. Oren Lyons, 93, Wolf Clan, is an Onondaga Chief, and world leader of peace who teaches —  The Earth is our Mother.  She gives everything we need for life.  Imagine a living pine tree clinging to a cliff; getting all it needs for life from the earth.  We are like that pine tree.  Our Mother Earth provides, but time is running out.  We have little time to make changes in order to survive.  The economy of nations will be broken by natural disasters.  We see more disasters every year:  hurricanes, snow melt, coastlines washing into the seas, wild fires, drought, flooding, on and...

Cline must disdain women's rights since he voted against abortion and contraception !

Mr. Cline,

You have two darling little twin daughters whom, I am sure, you must treasure. They are probably very smart and may one day want to follow in their father’s footsteps.

However, your recent vote against the Right to Contraception Act could make this very difficult for them. Without the ability to control the timing and number of their children, they could have difficulty meeting their career potentials. Your daughters may decide to marry late or not to marry at all. As a result, you may never know the joy of having grandchildren.

Mr. Cline, may the Lord bless you with sons who won’t be subjected to the restrictions you are imposing on your daughters.

Youngkin's Lack of Respect for Victims

To: The Honorable Glenn Youngkin, Governor of Virginia Dear Sir: Political violence increases in the US because of the “big lie” and conspiracy theories. It continues to spread and even promoted because elective’s officials have lack the courage to condemn this behavior in a serious way.  Yesterday, the free press reported THE LATEST SHOCK IN US HISTORY! A medical emergency was created after a violent political attack was committed on a private citizen in his home.   A 42 year old assailant with a hammer crushed  the skull of Paul Pelosi and left severe injuries to his right hand and arm.  Today, the traumatized family will have a clearer picture of recovery time and permanent outcome of sustained injuries. CNN reports that the “alleged attacker posted multiple conspiracy theories”. It has also been reported that the man was looking for Nancy using the Jan. 6 Capitol chant, “Where is Nancy”? I expected to witness a reasonable response of respect and empathy for ...

Mr Cline, This Is Not Working For Me

Dear Congressman Benjamin Cline, Quote from you “Voting is one of the most important things you can do in life…..” I agree. WHAT IS NOT WORKING FOR ME VOTING RIGHTS and DEMOCRACY are not protected when voter intimidation is active and permitted in the current election. Republicans did not support the latest Voter Protection Act and  “Instead 19 stated enacted 34 laws restricting access to voting”.  Quote from brennancenter.org STANDARDS OF CARE for women are not being met after overturned of Roe vs Wade and the  passage of “trigger laws” in Republican led states. There is real confusion about what care is legal and when that care is legal. When women are respected and equal, they have control of their own body instead of local politicians. A precedent right has been taken away from me. Do you support even more restrictions on women such as a National ban on abortions ? Mr Cline, the answer is simple…Yes or No! VIOLENCE INCREASES because of the “BIG LIE”, while you an...
