Opinion Line (Oct. 29)

Airport parking is provided free to dignitaries who can afford it. Those of us least likely to afford parking have to pay.

Free parking passes for politicians and CEOs? That’s exactly what is wrong with this country. End it today.

Once again the so-called elites get special handouts. Parking at the airport should be 100 percent private pay. A rebate or buy-five-get-one-free deal for volume users would be fair, but no elite welfare.

The new bike lanes on First and Second streets are great. They make biking safer for motorists and cyclists alike. Hats off to the Wichita City Council and city staff for moving forward with this project. I hope there are more bike lanes and projects to come.

Sedgwick County Commission Chairman Richard Ranzau for governor.

Heard about the new Bernie Sanders drinking game? Every time he mentions free stuff, you chug somebody else’s beer.

Hillary Clinton is just one selfie gone viral, one tall tale on Benghazi or her e-mails, or one phony smile away from winning your vote.

Experience matters. No president of the United States has ever been called upon to separate conjoined twins.

People who received a Big Mouth Billy Bass laughed and were amused for a few days until they got sick of hearing it, when it then got thrown into the closet. Donald Trump is the new Big Mouth Billy Bass.

We think Rubio can Cruz by Paul while Carson pushes Trump into a Bush.

We Kansans can be so proud to have Tim Huelskamp as one of our representatives in Congress. Not.

Huelskamp is an obstructionist loon. He and others have all but stopped the government from functioning. None will sit down like adults and discuss some give and take. Yet he has the gall to ask, “Where do we go from here?” With folks like him in office, the answer is nowhere.

The World Series is as much a spitting contest as a series of ballgames. Can’t baseball players play without constantly spitting? Disgusting.

Please bring back the Billy Graham column on the puzzle page. It’s truly inspirational, and for some people the one moral thought they may be exposed to each day.

Please bring back the original crossword puzzle. I do not like the Universal Crossword.

Celebrity Cipher is the worst puzzle of its kind in existence, and yet it has replaced the Cryptoquip. Boo, hiss, puke. Dump it. And I can’t even read the comic strips on that page without a magnifier.
