I’m watching the Republican primary. It’s been interesting how many candidates have risen to the top, only to become just a flash in the pan.
Being president used to be a nice job. Make a few speeches, sign a few bills into law, declare war to rousing cheers and go throw out the first ball at a Washington Senators’ baseball game.

Whoever thinks Medco Center of Campbellsville is inferior is dead wrong.
My grandmother has been a patient there for five years, and during that time she has had excellent health care.
My grandmother is total care except for feeding. Her mind is clear and she is very coherent. I spend several hours a week visiting her and it is at different times of the day. My grandmother is the world to me, and if I thought for one minute that this facility was at fault, I would not be leaving my grandmother there.

I would like to update our community on two important issues: the installation of streetlights along KY 210 Bypass and the recent purchase of the Dowell farm off Columbia Road.

I recently read in the News-Journal that the city of Campbellsville leaders have voted to spend over $1 million to purchase property to be used at a later date to build a sports complex. Only two weeks prior the question was posed to these same leaders as to why the lights on the KY 210 Bypass had not been replaced.

Their answer was that the contract with the company that did the work on the Bypass did not require the lights to be installed. They also stated that the city did not have the money to replace the lights at this time.
