SIGN ON THE DOTTED LINE

All Laughlin Citizens Need To Sign The Petition Against The Occupation

(22 February 2009)

If you haven’t signed the recall petition against the election vandals who stole our Town Advisory Board, (except for the one who simply bought her seat) now is the time to step up to the plate. Don’t let them serve one single day thinking they got away with the heist. Any Laughlin citizen may now go to the business office of KLBC-TV Channel 2 in the Aldapes shopping center during normal business hours and ask to sign the petition. It asks the Board of Commissioners to remove the current illegitimate board, appoint the rightful winners of the straw poll and pass an ordinance guaranteeing election rights in the future. Your signature really does matter because it help keep the light of liberty alive in Laughlin. Don’t let Commissar Steve Sisolak crush us under the heel of his storm troopers jack boot.

We welcome the public’s feedback. Please send your Letters To The Editor to editor@laughlinherald.com

THE LAUGHLIN HERALD WILL RETURN NEXT SUNDAY THE 22ND - HAPPY PRESIDENTS DAY.

Thank you for your continued support

ROBBING PETER TO PAY PAUL

A Key Social Service in Laughlin Now Has No Choice

(February 1^st, 2009)

I’ve never been a particularly fervent proponent of government solutions to societal problems. Ronald Reagan’s voice still rings true to my ear when I recall the words from his 1981 inaugural address, "Government is not the solution to our problems; government is the problem." But conservatives have their compassionate side as well. If you survey most reasonable people and ask them if they support giving welfare to people, a majority will say no, but if you rephrase the question and ask the same people, should the government help the truly needy, a majority will also agree. And that’s where we stand today with trying to find an alternative to our gutted mental health clinic. It’s broke, broken and discredited.
