Obama may cause American’s economic collapse

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Americans must brace themselves for an economic storm. Several economists have ensured that President Obama's economic policies are the ingredients of an economic time bomb ready to explode on the American economy. During the Obama presidency, the dollar has lost significant value as $2.5 trillion of "quantitative easing", which is a manipulation of paper money pumped into the economy, was added to our ...

Fiscal cliff can be tied directly to Congress

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Fellow Americans, does anyone else see the comedy of watching Congress and the Obama administration wrestle over the fiscal cliff? First of all, who created the "fiscal cliff"? Congress created it to force themselves to fix the problem of not being able to stick to a budget. The fiscal cliff is an agreement where democrats vow to punish high income/net worth citizens and republicans vow to punish lower and ...

Make parents, not schools, responsible for kids’ social lives

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I found the November 1st, front page story of "Meme" The Cookie Lady truly heartwarming. However, my blood began to boil as I turned to page A8 for the rest of the story. There, photos of adorable children in Halloween costumes were featured. As well as the story of, "The entire student body gathered on a grassy area in front of the school office, following the traditional ...

Thanks so much for saving the rest of us from ourselves

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, You folks know who you are: congratulations, you have achieved a resounding victory. Now let's review what you've won. On a national level you are obviously content to continue "forward" with record highs in unemployment and government welfare rolls, and with runaway deficit spending. Thank goodness, however, you were able to stave off that war on women. That was a close one! At the state level you solidly cemented a supermajority for ...

Debby Moorhead’s numbers do not add up

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, In the past few days, people have questioned me regarding the incumbents' numbers. I indicated to them, there is a more plausible explanation for Manteca's election numbers than that published in the Manteca Bulletin. First, we must acknowledge the anticipated win by Steve DeBrum; his win was simply guaranteed. On the other hand, given the poor "community polls," the high number of unsolicited less than approving comments from residents ...

Jeff Burkhardt Memorial Golf Tournament is a success

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, With the help of the community of Manteca and friends of Jeff Burkhardt, we had a successful golf tournament which raised money to help those who have fallen on hard times. We would like to thank our major sponsors: Crystal Downs – State Farm, Jimmy Perez - Perez Real Estate, and Linda Aksland and Jeff Aksland - Aksland Real Estate. The course sponsors doubled this year and we would ...

Favors Ransom for supervisor

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I think Rhodesia Ransom is the right choice for San Joaquin County Supervisor. She knows the community and she keeps her word. I am most impressed that she actually has experience and that she is not associated with the hand-picked, power-hungry politicians that just want to use Tracy as a stepping stone to more power. I find it disturbing that Bob Elliott was only on the City ...

Baca slams Romney ‘faking’ relief help

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, After being rejected by NJ Gov. Chris Christie upon a request for a joint helicopter tour of the devastation in New Jersey as Gov. Christie did with President Obama (after which the Gov. repeatedly praised Obama and FEMA, singling out the President's handling of the crisis and his "outstanding leadership"), and after telling everyone he was suspending all campaign activities in support of the victims of Hurricane Sandy ...

Cantu expands on plan to turn golf course into park

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, I support the continuance and the enhancement of Manteca's recreational golf component whether it remains at the current golf course or a new golf course. Recreational opportunities available to all residents are an important element within the overall scope of public services and general welfare, and a fiscally balanced community. My objective is to improve the quality of life of our residents, to expand the community's recreational potential, ...

Urges re-election of Dale Kuil to irrigation board

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Dale Kuil should be re-elected to the South San Joaquin Irrigation District Board. Mr. Kuil is an engaged board member who should be recognized for his leadership at the district. A second generation farmer, Kuil along with the other board members should be commended for their frugal and conservative practices, including the award winning On-Farm irrigation efficiency program. This three-year program helps growers convert to energy- and ...

Kuil is talented SSJID director

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Our Oakdale Irrigation District board members have worked with SSJID on several mutual projects. You are very fortunate to have a Director with the intelligence and foresight of Dale Kuil. He has all the qualities needed for leadership, independent thinking, advanced planning and fiscal responsibility. Dale's record with SSJID shows that he is an excellent, talented director. He clearly deserves to be elected for four more years in ...

Turning golf course into regional park is ridiculous idea

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Manteca City Council candidate Ben Cantu is without a doubt an "outside the box" thinker, which in itself is not a bad thing. However, he has made statements and presented ideas that definitely remind you of the old days when nothing got done and conflict at city hall was an everyday occurrence. He criticizes the current City Council when they have done a great job not only getting our city ...

If cuts are a must eliminate vice principals not transportation

Editor, Manteca Bulletin, Yes, the Manteca Unified School District has done a good job planning fiscal responsibility for the upcoming future school years, however, they still need to watch their budgets more than ever. As you see you cannot depend on our state officials to do what is best for our schools with their scare tactics. They only want needed money for their fat pockets! Should the school district need to ...
