      While the world is justifiably horrified by the appalling death toll in Gaza, it should not be forgotten that every death is ultimately the fault of Hamas. Hamas chose to launch a savage attack on peaceful civilians who were gunned down, incinerated, mutilated and raped. Hamas knew the respo…

        The crisis at our southern border is pressing and must be addressed with alacrity. The bipartisan bill crafted in the Senate would go far toward resolving the issue. If passed, it would put more resources on the border, especially human ones authorized to process speedily and effectively wou…

        While discussing current attitudes of conservative American Catholic Bishops, on the “60 Minutes” TV program, Pope Francis declared: “(A) Conservative is one who clings to something and does not want to see beyond that. It is a suicidal attitude.”

        Having served Scott County on the Board of Supervisors for many years, we (Tom Otting, Tom Sunderbruch & Carol Schaefer) understand firsthand the level of dedication, hard work and the leadership qualities required to keep the County moving forward.

        Our Supreme Court is failing us. We voters should know a defendant's guilt or innocence before the 2024 election. The courts have managed to delay things in two cases to the point that no adjudication is likely until after the election. If elected, any candidate could cancel federal cases ag…

        What if I said that I hated you? What if I said I loved you? Would you care either way? What if I said one could change your life? What if I said one could change your eternity? What if I stopped asking questions?

I was standing on a stage facing the students, who had surmounted myriad odds to achieve their place on the steps to the stage. I was facing all the people to the left …

        The worst part isn't John Donald O'Shea's crackpot meanderings in the far reaches of right field, or even the despairing thought that he has presided over legal proceedings that have affected people's lives. The worst part is that the Times' editors believe he deserves space in the paper.

        Judge (John Donald) O'Shea usually writes partisan editorials which reflect his opinion and are factually accurate. His current editorial labeling President Biden "Genocide Joe" disappointingly distorted facts. First, abortion of "perfectly healthy children, minutes before they will emerge n…

        I support re-electing Mariannette Miller-Meeks to Congress. Mariannette will be completing her second term in the 1st Congressional District of Iowa. She has won the district twice against “outside funded” Democrat opposition.

        I fully endorse Chris Laye in his bid for Scott County Sheriff because it is time for a change.
