Why is the city wasting money advertising the amenities of the new Eisenhower National Airport? Doesn’t City Hall understand that travelers determine the airport they depart from by the cost of the ticket, not amenities? Get the fares out of Wichita competitive and we will fly.

The city doesn’t have money to fix potholes that would swallow a tire, but it can paint bicycles on streets and put up new signs to designate Armour (a busy residential street) as Armour Bike Boulevard. Amazing – and stupid.

Which bathroom you use should not be determined by the way you are dressed.

Wouldn’t it be great if our servicemen and women returning from duty could get a welcome home just one-thousandth the size that the Royals got for winning a baseball game?

Bigotry and hatred are communicable diseases that are often transmitted to children by their parents. The good news is that love is also.
