I would like to know what Sedgwick County is going to do with the old tornado sirens. I need a new alarm clock.


With the vast majority of people in the city against being terrorized with the annual illegal fireworks demonstrations, can’t the City Council at least put a ban up for a public vote?


I am a 20-year-old engineering intern, and even I could have better designed and implemented the transition from southbound I-135 to eastbound Kellogg. This exchange is simply begging for a fatal collision. And given the incompetency of Wichita drivers, it won’t be much longer.


Someone should inform the groundskeepers at West High that watering the grass at 2:30 p.m. on a 100-degree day is a bad use of my tax dollars. It only reinforces my belief that we waste too much money on school spending.


Good riddance, Boeing. Hello, Airbus, renewable energy and smart transportation industries. Let’s get over it, and move forward now.


Now we know why Gov. Kathleen Sebelius, Statehouse Democrats and useful-idiot Republicans gave in-state college tuition rates to illegal alien children. They knew national Democrats would legalize these kids when the timing was right.


For the first quarter of 2012, nationwide income growth slightly outpaced inflation with personal income growing in nearly every state but Kansas. Hmm – makes me think Gov. Sam Brownback’s plan to have Kansans going to church every Sunday in a covered wagon is right on track.

The new minority in America are those who speak English, are employed outside of government, pay taxes, are registered to vote, have minimal (if any) tattoos, and are not receiving entitlements.


I hear many Obama voters now saying that “he’s changed.” He didn’t change. What changed was their infatuation with his charisma, which had blinded them.


Has anyone ever heard Obama say that he believes in our Constitution? And have you ever seen him do anything that proves it?


California native Jack Wu is a candidate for the Kansas State Board of Education. He was drawn to Topeka “after seeing the light of the Westboro Baptist Church.” Does large-scale hate emit light?
