The scariest person
Dear editor:
To Mr. Ragland's "Everyone loves a parade" (1-21-19), flip-flops? Really? We must be watching two different caravans. People living in the streets here would wrestle the guys in the caravan for the sharp attire I'm seeing. Too bad we can't see the "flip-flip" wearers at night and the women's treatment. Many are raped by the "impoverished" men.
Mr. Ragland served us up a huge plate of garbage, the most stinking being the acceptable language of the Muslim lady who would be beheaded in the country of her heritage if she used it against her leader, as "common vulgarity." I am a tough conservative, therefore will state, firmly, that language used by President Trump or anyone else is not defended as "common vulgarity" by me.
The person in our government who frightens me most is Nancy Pelosi. It was a done deal; she was not going to get the votes. Nancy had different ideas and there she was, with raised gavel and her twitching mouth, like she was ready to bite!
She is so scary that if the grizzly hanging in my garage saw her coming, he would tear the doors down, even though he's been dead for 50 years.
I have great-grandkids who would beg to clean their rooms if Nancy showed up at their front door.
The rattles off the rattlesnakes my husband killed would begin to quiver with fright if Nancy came too close.
I would miraculously be able to run once again if I were ever to be in close proximity with antsy, fancy Nancy.
To Mr. Vogt, there is one that I hate and that is Satan, the great deceiver and enemy of the living God. He is busy in the U.S.A. today. My mom, who was a Democrat, would totally reject the "everything free," liberal socialist Democrats of today. She believed in hard work and did plenty of it to provide for her kids! God bless her. I can still see her, at bedtime on her knees, thanking her God, when she was visiting us.
As for Mr. Barack Hussein Obama, I am not convinced that the guy who partnered with the Russian Vladimir Putin couldn't produce a phony Hawaiian birth certificate. Stranger things have happened. Hillary is good at making things disappear. Would it be that much more impossible to make something "appear?"
Please, liberal readers, don't act so insulted. President Trump has been a target of poisonous darts unmatched in our history! Only the blind don't admit this!
President Trump is willing to work with the other side, but he is always turned down because the liberal socialist answer is always the same: "Give us what we want, then we'll give you what 'we' want you to have."
Remember Nancy's "We have to pass the bill so we can see what's in it?" Now its "reopen the government, then we'll talk."
Fool me once, Nancy, shame on you. Fool me twice, Nancy, shame on me.
Thanks to Arch, L.J., Clyde, Donald and others! Keep writing! God bless America!

National Donor Day
Dear editor:
The Health Resources and Services Administration is the primary federal agency responsible for oversight of the organ and blood stem cell transplant systems in the U.S. and for initiatives to increase organ donor registration and donation in this country. And while we all know Feb. 14 as Valentine's Day, it is also National Donor Day. HRSA invites all your readers to learn more about organ donation and transplantation and to share some love by signing up as organ, eye, and tissue donors. Signing up is like sending a valentine to the nearly 114,000 people currently on the national transplant waiting list. One donor can save up to eight lives and enhance the lives of up to 50 individuals!
Remember to tell your family and loved ones about your decision to donate and leave your stamp on the world. Learn more about organ donation and register to be a donor at organdonor.gov and donaciondeorganos.gov. We also invite readers to "Like" Organdonor.gov and Donaciondeorganos.gov on Facebook.
Martha Culver,
Acting deputy regional administrator
Region 6 -- Dallas, HRSA
