Opinion Line Extra (April 21)

What Donald Trump says about the odd mixes of state primaries is exactly what everyone, Democrat or Republican, has been thinking for a long time.

Bernie Sanders, a Jew, and Pope Francis, a Christian – both willing to overlook their differences and agree on some of the most important issues that should define us as a people. We can learn from this.

Lincoln’s adage about fooling some of the people all of the time rings true when it comes to this presidential primary. Neither Trump nor Sanders can deliver on what he is promising. Trump and Sanders know it and the rest of us know it.

Brownbackistan’s march to zero: zero population growth, zero economic growth, zero job creation, zero confidence in the future of Kansas.

Perhaps you Eagle contributors will take a look at the presidential candidate selection process and the power grabs by the Kansas and U.S. Supreme courts, and see if you can find anything “democratic” about our government. As a last resort, read the U.S. Constitution.

The Wichita school district might take the small refrigerators out of some classrooms to save money. Really? Why don’t they get rid of all of extra principals of each school? How many principals does take?

Wow. So you can only protest the shooting of an unarmed person if you are an eyewitness? That is the reason these shootings continue to happen and are allowed and endorsed by the local authorities.

A $15-an-hour wage for fast-food workers will equal fewer customers, fewer restaurants and fewer jobs in the restaurant industry, and what’s so telling is that the people whining for more money are not intelligent enough to understand that.

It’s simple. Use the restroom of the gender you’re dressed as. Not comfortable with that? Then dress as the other gender. Don’t insist on a whole new law just to accommodate a problem that you yourself caused.

No, I’ve never looked at other people’s junk in a public restroom and, no, most people don’t. That’s not what we’re there for. However, some perverts go in there for that very reason. I suspect that some of those perverts are pushing for the bathroom bills.

I used a coed restroom at a McDonald’s in Paris 20 years ago, and somehow I survived.

I have had it up to my receding hairline with you, my fellow citizens, who tailgate the rest of us. From now on, the closer you get, the more I’m going to slow down. Even to a dead stop, if that’s what it takes. I’m sick of your behavior.
