After watching the Democratic convention the other night I could have sworn I was watching the Republicans with what I was hearing. Did Houdini come back to life or was I dreaming?

To the person who said, cops do not have the right to act in the capacity as judge, jury, prosecutor and executioner, well, they wouldn’t have to if you only followed their simple orders.

How do the pope and Vatican feel now about security walls, border security, foreigners and terrorism after the cowardly ISIS dirtbags beheaded the Catholic priest in France?

I will not retreat into the past other than to say Mrs. Clinton has a very long record of bad decisions, dating all the way back to the Nixon era.

If you are a Dish Satellite TV subscriber you can tune in and watch Chicago Cubs or White Sox games. All you need is a small, table-top HD antenna connected to your TV. You’ll get all the Chicagoland/NWI channels with fantastic reception and hardly any interruptions due to weather.

Well it looks like Russia is not afraid of Trump, but it seems like they are afraid of her.

The west side of Cedar Lake is looking great. But have our town leaders forgotten the southeast side? I live on a cow path. My road has not been paved for over 35 years. Please spread the wealth all around.

I’d like to thank the gentleman who fixed the flat tire for my grandson and I on a recent Saturday afternoon at Countyline Road and Ind. 12. Your kindness is appreciated. God bless you.

I refuse to vote for Hillary because she is bought and paid for by the unions.

Neither Trump or Clinton seem to understand they have to deal with Congress on legislation. The president is not a dictator.

You keep bashing the steel workers and presuming they are all out there having a sleep fest, but my question to you is have you ever been there? I bet your opinion would change after about 5 minutes at the blast furnace or the caster.

I remember that Democratic president Bill Clinton deregulated the banks. I also remember that GOP Senator Phil Gramm, R-Fla., is the bankster once-removed who authored the bill that Slick Willie signed into law. Your simple-minded attempts to blame just one party or leader is preposterous, at best.

Mitch Daniels pawned the Indiana Toll Road for 75 years and you congratulate Pence for “continuing that great legacy?”

To Fred Niedner, concerning the column of July 31, it was a very touching, very poignant article. I’m not sure I agree with you. Personally, I think the barbarians will win. But I’ve been wrong before and hope springs eternal. I know you don’t know me, but for what it’s worth, I’m sorry about your friend. May God’s Love be with you in the days ahead. God bless you, sir.
