MOSES LAKE
Thanks for printing the "Enough is Enough" editorial in the Columbia Basin Herald on Jan. 20, 2011. The harassment of the Tony Holiday family should have been ended long ago. But, in your whole editorial, you failed to mention City Manager Joe Gavinski and the Moses Lake City Council members, all of whom are responsible for the harassment continuing as long as it did. The Moses Lake City Council needs to reprimand the city manager for wasting taxpayer dollars on the appeals and they need to send a formal apology to Mr. Holiday and his family.

Moving right?

Bush's tax cuts, recruited centrist Democrat William Daley, of Chicago, as his chief of staff and named General Electric CEO Jeffrey Immelt as his top economic adviser outside the government.

PUBLIC NOTICE THE DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR BUREAU OF RECLAMATION COLUMBIA BASIN PROJECT, WASHINGTON
NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN THAT:
DIVERSITY
"American exceptionalism" was best illustrated by our response to the tragic events in Arizona: our Latino-American congressional aide intern helped save the life of our female Jewish-American US Representative, our Korean-American physician provided her expert medical care, and our African-American President rallied our country to her recovery and eulogized the victims.
Reader disapproves of city actions
The City of Moses Lake has a vindictive streak toward anybody that challenges their city codes. The case of Tony Holiday in his battle with the city over the vacant lot is very similar to a case back in 2003-2004. When the city annexed Longview Tracts, they tried to require an elderly couple, who had lived in their house for over 50 years, to bring it up to city code with a long list of repairs. When the elderly couple were financially unable to make repairs the city slapped them with over $30,000 in fines. When they couldn't pay the fines the city got an abatement judgment and a court order to remove them from their own house. After the husband died, presumably from all the stress, the widow tried to assert her rights to the estate. The city along with Grant County Superior saw to it that she had no right to the property. But the city was not completely heartless, they promised the family they would not pursue them for the fines or court cost if the family signed over any interest they had in the house and lot. The City of Moses Lake tried to keep this dirty little case out of the public eye, understandably so. It looks like Mr. Holiday has beaten the city at their own game. Good for him.

MEMORIAL SPEECH
Upon hearing President Obama's memorial speech for the Arizona shooting victims I felt shaken with tears. I was filled with a new hope in the U.S. people. And not just Americans who have similar philosophies to mine. No, the president made it very clear: as a citizen I'm obligated to respect the essential goodness of anyone who tries to help shape a better country! He cautioned all Americans to be more "civil," liberals and conservatives alike. It reminded me of the inclusive and non-violent spirit of Mahatma Gandhi that inspired Martin Luther King and Mandela. So certain everyone who heard the speech would be uplifted, because nothing about it was divisive! President Obama challenged us "to become the America our children expect." To think before we speak? Avoid violent language. Trust the best intentions of other Americans who come from varying perspectives. Less cynicism and judgment. That is what I believe President Obama was so eloquently urging us to do.

Painful cuts
Don't even think of lining up 13.9 trillion dollar bills end-on-end in order to create some kind of visual metaphor for our national debt. The human brain is incapable of comprehending a number this big, but one thing we all know: The debt is unacceptably gigantic. It also threatens our national security.
Is change possible?

The Fishin Magician
I want to be sure everyone is aware of the big seminar coming up at Town Ford on January 12th. For the first time ever Buzz Ramsey is coming to Wenatchee to share his insights on steelhead fishing. Buzz has been named to the Hall of Fame with the Association of Northwest Steelheaders and the National Freshwater Fishing Hall of Fame. He is also a Pro-Staffer for a variety of very big name makers of fishing products, including Berkley, Abu Garcia, Minn Kota, Willie Boats, Mercury Motors and others. I am happy to also announce that Anton Jones, Darrell and Dads Family Guide Service, has agreed to be at the seminar, too. He guides on Rufus Woods and will provide information on how to fish for the triploid rainbow up there. He has been fishing Rufus Woods for many years and will have current information on the fishing up there. The seminar is going to be a very special one and I hope you all can make it. I also want to remind everyone that my Signature Salmon Spread is now available at Mike's Meat and Farmers Market on North Wenatchee Avenue. Get some for your New Year's Party!
