Do the right thing and celebrate 4th on July Fourth

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Louie J. Parra's "News Flash" about all the inter-party bickering and finger pointing is a step in the right direction, and his closing thought about directing energy toward "fixing things instead of continuously blaming the other guy" is solid. Nevertheless elections, parties and votes determine only which political operative will hold an office which functions as the conspicuous place to focus attention for praise or blame while the powerfully invisible which pay ...

Baca & Aquila no longer amusing

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I agree with Louie Parra. I used to think the inane ramblings from Baca and Aquila were mildly amusing. They have ceased to interest me at all. I do not read them anymore and they are a source of irritation to me as I read your paper. How can you continue to print such garbage? I have talked to friends of mine and they all feel the same way. Please stop allowing ...

The American people can see the truth

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, While the Democrats in this city want to tell half truths and demand I provide supportive facts, I usually don't waste my time having to prove to them anything. However, Mr. Sadlowski has been trying very poorly to do a frugal rebuttal to every conservative who writes a letter. He has even had his wife assist him in the attack. As for President Obama's failure to defend American soldiers, the Obama administration ...

Democratic Party is missing the boat

Editor, Manteca Bulletin It appears that Ms. Sadlowski carries on the family tradition of the lack of ability to deal with the truth. Ms. Sadlowski, you need to get more information from other than the mainstream media and your father. That propaganda is for voter consumption in order to put the Democratic Party in control of the government. You know, that same government that is supposed to be "for the people of the people and ...

TEACHERS ASK WHY?

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I'm getting a little tired of the blame game that's being played in our school district at the expense of the teachers. We're told over and over that the teachers should be taking their 5% pay cut, just like everyone else. Really? The teachers are to blame? Let's compare our district to other local school districts. Turlock teachers gave up 1.5% and over 160 layoff notices were rescinded. Immediately. Modesto City ...

Reasons why he’s fed up with Democrats

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I am fed up with a democRAT Congress and a democRAT president who: • voted for a $500 billion tax bill without even reading it. • are spending trillions of borrowed dollars, leaving a debt our great-grandchildren will be paying. • consistently give special interest groups billions of dollars in earmarks to help get themselves re-elected. • want to take your wealth and redistribute it to others. • punish those who practice ...

The unfolding Obama drama

Editor Manteca Bulletin, America reflects the face of its leader. As America turned hard left into the liberal direction of President Obama and a liberal Democrat filled congress, the results will have consequences. President Obama's first official act was to close Guantanamo Bay, a prison island used to house 245 hardened terrorist. He reduced our government's methods of interrogating these terrorist and granted them further rights even though their vow is to destroy America. Many ...

Republicans need to keep moving to right

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I would like to say how much I enjoyed Mr. Johnson's rebuttal to Mr. Baca's observations of the Republican Party. Right from the beginning of his letter he makes one point that I could not agree with more, the GOP needs to continue their march to the right. The GOP will never reach party purity unless they purge any moderate that is willing to side with the Democrats. It was party purity ...

What will DA layoffs do to county’s already high crime rate?

On May 26, county officials handed out layoff notices to 12 deputy district attorneys. yIt is imperative that county residents and business owners fully understand the implications of this decision which necessarily undermines the county's ability to serve its most important function, ensuring public safety. It is no surprise that our county has gained a national reputation, not for its lush agricultural countryside or award-winning wineries, but for a less coveted trait: violent crime. Recently, ...

Challenges public safety personnel to work straight time on Fourth of July

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, The interlocked economies of the world have been shaken down by the interlocked central banking systems in collusion with the capitalist thugs that call the shots and their government stooges which make it all possible through their "oh woe is me they're too big to fail" public relations. As above, so below; we don't have to look far to see a micro example of this fiscal shamelessness here in Manteca. Yet, ...

The GOP is definitely different than Demos

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, With all the talk going on one would think the issues are all ready set for the future of this once-great nation. Many people want to put the GOP in the grave by placing it closer to the middle politically. That would place it closer to the Democratic Party agenda and by so doing place the final nail in the coffin. Let's get one thing straight...the GOP is not now or ever ...

Impressed with Good Samaritan & food in Manteca

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Today, my faith in humankind was renewed due to random acts of kindness by a stranger as well as the manager of La Costa Taqueria on Moffat Boulevard in Manteca. Being a swim team and soccer Mom, I was up at 6 a.m. and after a morning of swim competition; we drove to Manteca for the Nor Cal Premier Soccer College Showcase held at Woodward Field. After the game, we were hungry ...

Leave ‘marriage’ term to churches

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, While I am not opposed to marriage in of itself, I honestly do agree with Dennis Wyatt about having everyone entering a domestic partnership (gay and straight alike) and leave the term "marriage" for churches. I am straight myself and been with my significant other for three years now. We have no immediate plans to get hitched but we are both averse to the term "marriage." To be legally tied to someone ...

Retirement should be 50-60% not 90% of pay

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, The city is still facing a huge budget deficit that must be resolved expeditiously. Recently, I read that the City of Manteca finally realizes (the mayor) that reductions in pay and retirement are necessary is surprising. In several articles, I and other writers wrote that the only way to close and bring the budget in line with income were to re-negotiate pay, pension contract with the police and fire departments. The fact ...

Column on benefits sensationalizes issue

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Your column on May 31 headlined "The Burden of a 90% Public Safety Retirement Benefit" sensationalizes safety retirement pensions and does not address our real fiscal problems. Safety retirement pensioners have worked and have been responsible contributors to society, the economy, and your safety for their working years. People on welfare take from the system. Illegal aliens take from the system. If you want to report about areas to save the city ...
