The NCAA championship game between Villanova and North Carolina flipped back and forth more than Sen. Jerry Moran explaining his stance on the Supreme Court nominee.
During his tenure as Senate majority leader, Harry Reid prevented hundreds of bills from coming to a vote on the Senate floor. I don’t recall any liberals complaining about Reid “not doing his job.” Yet another shining example of left-wing hypocrisy.
When I hear politicians telling me that they are going to give me free stuff, I think, “Yeah, and there is free cheese in a mousetrap.”
The Republicans need to get a grip on the reality if Donald Trump is nominated. The Democrats will win: Bernie Sanders by 15 points, Hillary Clinton by 10 or a ham sandwich by 7.
The Cold War ended and the wall came down because the USSR feared that President Reagan was a wild card who just might push the button. We have an opportunity to gain that psychological advantage again. Let’s elect Trump and let the world know we’re not meek and fearful.
Gov. Sam Brownback declares April as Financial Literacy Month? Absolutely the best April Fools’ joke ever.
All I want is for Brownback to say, “I goofed. Let’s fix it.” Apparently it takes a big man to do that.
Attention, Westar Energy customers: Get ready for a refund and adjustment in your bills as Westar gets ready to comply with the federal order on transmission rates. Then get ready for the next rate increase from Westar. And transmission rate increases are automatic after a cursory KCC review? Wow.
Finally, with Sedgwick County’s newsletters, we’ll be able to get the information on what’s going on, instead of The Eagle’s chip-on-the-shoulder reporting.
Wichitans can’t burn anything in April because it affects the city’s air quality? But everyone else in the state can do “controlled burns,” which blow into the city affecting the air quality? I must be missing something.
A few dozen Flint Hills ranchers perform seasonal controlled burns; 570,000 area residents suffer smoke inhalation.
A thousand middle and high school students came to WSU on Saturday to compete in the 2016 Kansas State Science Olympiad competition, and The Eagle ignores them.
Why doesn’t the Super Car Guys guy get some new gyrations?
