Very well said. It seems the only opinion letters that get posted are the misinformed ultra liberal sentiments. I submitted a letter with more balanced, but factual information. It has not been published. It's discouraging to see another msnbc look-alike.
This is a comment that spreads outright fiction. I'm not arguing the right or wrong of abortions. The facts are wrong, therefore the opinion of the writer are wrong. It is full of anger, accusations and I'm surprised the Hudson Observer allowed this to be published.
Where are the guardians of our K-12 education system? People like Heather Logelin are trying to take over the education system to advance their own ideologies. As Albert Einstein said, "The purpose of eucation is to teach you how to think." Logelin is trying to get to the kids early to in…
You say, "Kelly started his attack with a giant lie, claiming Protasiewicz is “a danger to our liberties.” Yet you go on to attack him for the same reasons, at least twice. Do you hear your duplicity? We need to hear more positive starements about a candidate of choice rather than the sam…
This letter is filled with slick and slanderous hyperbole. And the language of disaster is devisive. I think it should be subtitled, "paid advertisement."
We need to stop using inflamatory words like "dangerous," "gerrymandering," and "theft" when taling about politics. And blaming the far right or far left in derogatory ways. These are words, charged with disturbing emotions, that divide us. They are partisan. They divide us into the good …
There is no threat to democracy. That's just the rhetoric the politicians are using to inflame and divide us. And that kind of talk puts a negative stigma on voting. It does not help to get people out to vote. It only makes them angry and apathetic. When you create fear with these words t…
Why does the Police and Fire Commission have to be politicized? It seems everything has to be politicized, from city services to choice of gender (a recent vote of the council). And, as usual, when it becomes politized it becomes divisive with uncivil interruptions and petty criticisms th…
Your thoughts are right on target. It's all a distraction. Kids think it's a bunch of fun. But kids who don't engage in the craziness are bullied (or so a therapist who works with teens told me). And why did the Hudson city council spend time approving a measure to validate gender fluidit…
The article is title Pronoun Policy, but then says there's no pronoun policy. Which is it? It is different than "outing." Outing implies an intent to harm. That's not the case here. It seems to be a great way to coordinate with parents about the child's education and life at school. Educa…
