Letter to the editor: Not believing what president dishes out
After watching President Barack Obama’s State of the Union speech and listening to the way he stretches the truth or ignores it completely to deceive us, I will believe he wants to put people back to work when he lifts the ban on the Keystone pipeline.By Camilla Ryan, Fergus Falls , February 03, 2012
Letter to the editor: Hold the judgment
On Jan. 20, 2011, I received one of the worst phone calls in my life. It was a call from my dad letting me know that my brother, Zachary, had collapsed while playing basketball and was in an ambulance on his way to the hospital – he was fighting for his life.By Courtney Gabbard, Frisco, Colo. , February 03, 2012
Letter to the Editor: Is thank you enough? 
Not a week goes by without a story or an update about Zachary in some sort of media, so I am sure everyone knows what I am talking about here.
I have said thank you more times in the past 11 months than I am sure I have up until that point in my life.
However, is thank you enough?

Letter to the editor: Standing up for the wrong side
To be a working class person, defined as anyone below the upper 1 percent of income earners in this country, and support Republican Grover Norquist’s “No New Taxes” pledge, you give sympathy for the Devil.By Erwin R. Rud, Fosston, Minn. , December 14, 2011
Letter to the editor: If you were in objective shoes

Letter to the editor: Upset with Perham-Dent School Board 
In last week’s paper the first thing you see is Santa waving and we are all reminded that, yes, it is that special time of the year, and then you start reading the article above Santa and BAM! Good feeling gone.

Letter to the editor: God and politics 
Got the scare of my life the other day in church! Just sitting at this table after services drinking my coffee and this friend came up to me and said, “Well, did you hear that this morning?”
And before I could say, “What?” my friend said, “God is a Republican!”

Letter to the editor: The part of "no" we don't get 
The teachers that made a difference in my life were stubborn and determined. They had to be. Heaven knows I gave them plenty of reason to give up in frustration. Looking back I realize that the optimism of teachers has always played a powerful role in education.

Letter to the editor: If you were in my shoes, Mr. Hexum 
Mr. Hexum, you were very blessed to have teachers at some point who taught you how to write and read (perhaps even in a public school, lucky you!) But I fear they forgot to teach you a few skills.
