Open Letter to Sen. Collins—
You’ve often spoken of your admiration of the late Maine Sen. Margaret Chase Smith, of her courage in speaking truth to power. Do I think I know how Margaret Chase Smith would vote on the charges against former president Trump? ...
Our Pool, Q—
Professor Harold Hill, the unscrupulous traveling salesman in Meredith Wilson’s show “The Music Man” begins his spiel with “Ya got trouble, folks, right here in River City. Trouble with a capital T, that rhymes with P, and that stands ...
Civility—
Be civil to all; sociable to many; familiar with few; friend to one; enemy to none. — Benjamin Franklin ...
Tired Stereotypes—
I am happy, like Michael Roskin, that the federal government is becoming more diverse. But the Senate is still overwhelmingly White and male. We need 50 women senators and at least 12 Black senators before we can say it’s starting to ...
Tax Liabilities—
For the past several years large federal agencies have been out of control and virtually unaccountable to congressional oversight. Most notable are the Social Security Administration and the IRS. Almost all functions of these two ...
Collins’ Statements—
I am aware that many Trump voters don’t accept the outcome of the presidential election. I am not a Susan Collins supporter but I hope that at least some Republicans who respect her and voted for her will read her statements ...
Put an End to the Pandemic—
The Maine Association of School Nurses and the National Association of School Nurses supports vaccination against COVID-19. The Food and Drug Administration has granted Emergency Use Authorization to the Pfizer and ...
Say Something—
Thank you, Eva Murray, for your honest and courageous response to those who spout “racist, sexist, anti-Semitic and xenophobic” attitudes (“from Offshore: Call Somebody Out,” January 26). You have accurately called ...
Niemöller’s Lecture Updated—
First, the virus came for the old people,
But I did not help them by masking, socially distancing or getting vaccinated,
because I was not old.
COVID Shots—
After years of denial and blame, it is so nice to experience some real planning and performance. My wife and I were at one of the early vaccination sessions at the Samoset. We had gotten appointments by receiving a phone call ...
Reading List—
Citizens of Maine, this is not about Democrat or Republican. This is about good and evil. This is about freedom and communism. This is your choice. If you love our country you will read the information. What is happening in this ...
Black History in Maine—
Although this month is dedicated to Black history, I would like to know more about where Black populations in Maine are living and how their communities are thriving today. Living in Camden, I am ignorant of what’s going on in ...
PPP Is a Lifesaver—
The Paycheck Protection Program, authored by Sen. Susan Collins, has been a lifesaver to small businesses and nonprofits across our state. Maine has received over $1.2 billion in PPP loans — one of the highest approval rates ...
First Shot—
I don’t know who organized it, but my wife and I received our first shot yesterday; it was very well organized and went perfectly....
