Dhanda: Nurses captured essence of Christmas

Details
Written by: Paula R. Dhanda
Published: 18 December 2007
I would like to thank the nurses at Sutter Lakeside Hospital for the wonderful children’s Christmas party they hosted on Dec. 9th at the Adventist Church in Lakeport. They really captured the essence of Christmas, which I believe is gathering and sharing the joy of children. It was apparent that considerable time, energy and thought was put into making this party such a success. The children enjoyed the crafts, which included ornament making, decorating stocking, card making and cookie decorating which was very popular especially with my children. There was also lively storytelling and the surprise visit from Santa and Mrs. Clause.


A special thank you to Renee for the big job of organizing the event. I appreciated the generosity of the pink ladies for their donation and also thank the nurses for their contribution. Thank you to Tammy M. for taking such great photos. Thank you also to Don, Sharon, Cheryn, Virginia, Sarah, Carol Ann, Nadine, Mary, Jenelle, Yvette, Debbie, Sherry and Tammy R. for taking the time to make the holidays special for our children. Forgive me if I have left you out or misspelled your name.


Happy Holidays and a Healthy New Year.


Paula R. Dhanda, MD has offices in Kelseyville and Clearlake.

If the women of the world would shed the tears they feel as a result of the violence perpetrated against them, and in their name, all wars would end today.

Curry: Democrats urge leaders to end war

Details
Written by: Rebecca Curry
Published: 08 December 2007
The Lake County Democratic Club strongly supports of the addition of our Congressman, Mike Thompson’s name, to Congresswoman Woolsey’s July 19, 2007 letter to the President declaring that she will not vote for more funds for the Iraq occupation, except for the safe and orderly withdrawal of our troops. The letter has also been endorsed by 90 of our Congressman’s Democratic colleagues.


As the House moves this Tuesday, Dec. 11, to vote on an $520 billion omnibus spending bill, a bill that wraps all domestic spending into one package, along with billions for Iraq with no troop withdrawal conditions, we urge the Congressman to keep his endorsement of his colleague's letter in mind as the votes are cast.


In July our chartering body, the Lake County Democratic Central Committee, endorsed a resolution that, asked our Democratic representatives to vote against all further appropriations for military operations and occupation in Iraq, except for the singular, explicit purpose of bringing all United States troops home safely and without delay.


We are looking to Thompson's leadership to do everything in his power as our representative in Congress to speak for us. End this devastatingly painful, economically destructive occupation of a sovereign nation. Bring our troops home and leave no residual forces in Iraq. We're counting on you.


Rebecca Curry is chair of the Lake County Democratic Club, on whose behalf she writes this letter. See the text of Woolsey's letter at www.pdamerica.org/articles/misc/2007-07-20-07-59-11-misc.php.

Christwitz: Offering a different scenario

Details
Written by: Edwin Christwitz
Published: 05 December 2007
What if some Caucasian fraternity boys ran out of beer and boogied to their favorite African American supplier who drove them off with a shotgun when the frat boys got violent?


What if the African American supplier shot two of the boys in the back? What if the third Caucasian frat boy got arrested later and the African American district attorney charged him with murder while charging the African American supplier with nothing?


What if the mostly African American county had a history of racism? What if lies were spread about the amount of violence done to the African American family, and yet the judge wanted the case tried there in that county where the shootings occurred?


When the local Caucasian citizen's council protested the location, a circuit judge moved the case to a more racially balanced county.


Most of the African Americans in the mostly African American nation wrote letters to editors arguing for their right to execute the Caucasian frat boy who had tried to run away. The blogs and hate radio talk show were full of outraged African American citizens.


Just what if?
