Council Candidate Support

Posting Date: 05/23/2013


Wow. I wonder how many times the name Rich Green was mentioned prior to the campaigning, in news publications, club minutes (where he has added opinions to the subject matter), in organization publications indicating his leadership involving more than just being a 'sometimes' volunteer. [Read more]

CONGRESS NEEDS TO SLOW DOWN AND INVESTIGATE IRS

On May 10, America learned that the IRS – perhaps the most frightening of all government agencies – has been singling out and targeting conservative groups, including Tea Party groups. The IRS has waged a three-year war against the Tea Party, harassing our groups and even auditing our individual members. This abuse of power is unacceptable and un-Constitutional, and it must stop.  [Read more]


Council Candidate Endorsement

Posting Date: 05/22/2013


I first met Rich Green at a friends home for dinner. In talking with him I invited him to visit the Rotary Club in which I am a member. He began attending breakfast meetings of the Club with another close friend in January 2013. After getting to know many of our members and being briefed about the goals and objectives of Rotary International, Rich was accepted for membership in early March.  [Read more]

Political Campaigner Addresses Community

Posting Date: 05/20/2013


I have lived in Mesquite for over nine years and have actively campaigned for several candidates seeking elective offices in our City. When my friend, Rich Green, declared his candidacy for the Mesquite City Council I was initially somewhat skeptical as he had no political experience and would be competing with two incumbents and eight other candidates. [Read more]

I wish to describe my interest in the Overton Power District situation and what I believe should be done about OPD. This Letter to the Editor responds to erroneous information published in a May 14 Letter to the Editor. [Read more]


Community Minded - Community Caring

Posting Date: 05/20/2013


I have served on the Virgin Valley Community Education Advisory Board (CEAB) for several years and in January of this year I decided that I needed to re-direct some of my time to other activities and I would seek to step down from the CEAB. However, my commitment to this very important organization caused me to first seek a qualified replacement for myself.  [Read more]

Put Up Or Shut Up

Posting Date: 05/17/2013
