THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW 12-12-2023 / THE TIMES OF ISRAEL
Davids dodges vote to condemn anti-Semitism
Attacks on Jews/Israel
on rise after Oct. 7, but
Davids cant commit
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
WASHINGTON, D.C. Kansas 3rd
District Congresswoman Sharice
Davids once again cited politics
last week as reasoning for withholding her support for Jewish/
Israeli interests in the wake of
anti-Semitic protests erupting
worldwide after the Hamas terrorist attack on October 7.
Davids voted present on a U.S.
House resolution last week condemning the rise of anti-Semitism
in the United States and worldwide
after the October 7 attack, in which
Hamas terrorists executed a surprise assault against Israelis along
the nations border with Gaza.
Kansas 3rd Congressional
District includes Anderson,
Franklin, Miami, Johnson and
part of Wyandotte counties.
Some 1,200 people, mostly
Jewish civilians, were murdered
in the Oct. 7 melee, whose depraved
carnage was such that initial estimates of deaths
were
revised
after
workers
conducted
an
inventory
of
severed limbs
and body parts
to ascertain an
actual number
of victims. Many
Davids
of those killed
were Jewish children. Hamas attackers gang raped
Jewish women and killed entire
families in their homes. Others
were taken as live captives and
have been held in Gaza.
With the ensuing military
response by Israel, pressure has
since mounted by anti-Jewish
groups in the U.S. and abroad to
prevent Israel from its pledged
destruction of Hamas in Gaza to
defend itself against future attacks.
Those groups blame Israel for poor
conditions under which Muslims
living in Hamas-controlled Gaza
live, and for other issues having to
do with Israels defense of its territory. Israel withdrew from Gaza
in 2005 but continued to provide
assistance to the area.
Davids denial of support for the
anti-Semitism resolution H.R. 894
was joined by 91 other representatives all Democrats. Thirteen
Democrats and one Republican
Tom Massie of Kentucky voted
no on the measure. Kansas
remaining congressional contingent Jake LaTurner, Tracey
Mann and Ron Estes voted in
favor of the resolution which
passed 311-14. Thirteen Democrats
and four Republicans skipped the
vote on the measure.
The resolution notes various
recent acts of violence against
Jews in the wake of the terrorist attacks on Israel and issues a
strong condemnation of associated
hate and violence. It also specifi-

From budget amendments
to stemming losses at ballparks,
money is always a city hall issue
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT Ongoing financial pressure in
the City of Garnett prompted city commissioners to announce theyll seek authorization to spend an additional $600,000 before
months end to cover costs associated with
repairs at the Cedar Valley Reservoir, this
after a rigorous summer budget preparation for 2024 that saw scrutiny of expenses
ranging from a half million dollars in road
funds down to operation of city rec department concession stands.
The draft budget amendment will be
considered at a hearing during the citys
December 26 meeting. The proposed amendment to the 2023 budget, published in todays
public notices section of the Review, entails
an increase from $1,644,000 to $2,244,000
in the department, mainly for the citys
portion of repairs to the spillway at CVR
finished earlier this fall. The spillway was
damaged after 2019 floodwaters swept over
cally condemns anti-Zionism the
belief Israel has no right to exist as
a sovereign nation on the ancestral
homeland of the Jewish people as
anti-Semitism.
Davids spokesman Zac Donley
said Davids had a long history of
Jewish support, but that some
of the language in HR 894 she
believed had political intentions
from its Republican sponsors that
negated its message. Donley didnt
respond to a followup question as
to those political concerns outweighing Davids conviction to
oppose anti-Semitism.
Davids has however supported vehement anti-Semites in
Congress, namely Palestinian
backers Rashida Tlaib of Michigan
and Ilhan Omar of Minnesota,
whove both attacked Israel
and U.S. policy supporting it. In
February Davids voted against the
ouster of Omar from the House
Committee on Foreign Affairs

THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A claim by a former employee
against the City of Garnett for some $20,000
in foregone compensation
appears to be in limbo, at
least temporarily.
Former economic development director Sherry
Harrison, who spent only
six weeks on the job before
resigning after conflicts
with previous director Julie
Turnipseed, told the Review
Harrison
last week she had been out
of state dealing with a family
emergency and had not pursued the claim she
submitted November 20 after she left the position.
I am still out of state taking care of my
mother, Harrison told the Review. I am not
giving Garnett my attention until I return. She
said she anticipated returning to Kansas last
Friday.
Harrison was hired in early November but

Sheriff on Princeton
Liquors burglary
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
PRINCETON Franklin County investigators
continue to probe circumstances around a
burglary of Princeton Liquors and Princeton
Quick Stop last Tuesday, which officers say
resulted in losses of as much as $10,000 to the
tandem businesses.
A statement from the Franklin County
Sheriffs Office said an employee arrived at
work early December 5 to find evidence the
store had been broken into. Reports from passersby said law enforcement had cordoned off

the facility. The spillway was also damaged
and repaired after floods in 2007.
Overall, rising property valuations in
the city and continued subsidies from city
utility surpluses bolstered the citys coming year budget of $15.5 million to afford a
meager but present $1,000 drop in overall
tax funding for 2024 expenses. City manager
Travis Wilson said the budget process was
specific but more efficient this year than in
years past.
One specific area of attention to a comparably small portion of city funds was noted
in a July letter from the citys auditors
Jarred, Gilmore & Phillips regarding management and oversight of concession stand
expenses and revenues over recent years
within the citys recreation department.

ANDERSON COUNTY COMMISSION
DECEMBER 4, 2023
Chairman Leslie McGhee called
the meeting of the Anderson County
Commission to order at 9:00
AM on December 4, 2023 at the
Anderson County Commission Room.
Attendance: Leslie McGhee, Present:
David Pracht, Present: Anthony
Mersman, Present. The pledge of
allegiance was recited. Minutes from
the previous meeting were approved
as presented.
Road & Bridge
Ethan Lickteig, Road Supervisor,
met with the commission. He received
a truck from the Rural Fire department
that is no longer in use and will be
putting a flatbed on the truck. Killough
Construction reached out to Ethan to
meet regarding cracks and issues with
the blacktop on Scipio Road. They will
inspect the road within the next couple
weeks. Discussion was held on the
department budget and what the priorities are for chip sealing or replacing
equipment.
Community Building Solutions
Tyler Garst, Community Building
Solutions, met with the commission. Final discussion was held on
whether the commission would like
to move forward with HVAC project
in the courthouse. The timeline of
the project would begin in Spring
2024. With the approval, Community
Building Solutions will begin compiling an engineering design for the
courthouse. The project will not cost
over $355,000 which would be paid
out of the Capital Improvement fund.
Commissioner Pracht moved and
Commissioner Mersman seconded to
proceed to have Community Building
Solutions complete the engineering
design to add HVAC to the courthouse
for $5,000 to be paid out of the Capital
Improvement fund. All voted yes.
County Attorney
Elizabeth Oliver, County Attorney,
met with the commission. She gave
an end of year report on the number
of cases that has been worked and
what is scheduled for the future. The
County Attorney also inquired about
having a service dog in her office. The
Commissioners stated that no animals
are to be allowed in the courthouse
and that the dog is not a certified service dog. They will consider allowing
the dog in the courthouse after it has
become certified as a service dog and
by appointment only. The training to
become a service dog will be completed in August 2024. Ms. Oliver will
revisit the Commissioners when the
date approaches.
Public Comment
Ron Fox, Garnett, met with the
commission. He discussed an issue
he had with not being able to pay his
2023 taxes under protest. He had an
informal hearing with the appraisers
office in the spring but does not recall
receiving any correspondence after
the meeting. A Kansas statute reads
that if there has been a hearing the
taxes cannot be paid under protest.
Although due to the missed correspondence, the appraiser will allow
the taxes to be paid under protest and
have another hearing on the property.
Adjourn
Meeting adjourned at 12:00 PM due
to no further business.

Collector model trains on display
at Garnett Public Library
With our holiday season
upon us, the Garnett Public
Library filled its display case
with some more historical
model trains from the Mike
Canavan and Skip Landis collections. Mikes collections
specializes in N gauge while
Skips collection is vintage O
gauge.
The O gauge sets, from
Skip Landis, give a glance back
to late 30s and late 60s with a
series of Lionel steam driven
PRR hoppers and NYC passenger trains. This months display
offers 1930s-40s Empire State
Express from Washington D.C.
to New York City from Mikes
Train House Company along
with a 1940s Hafner wind-up
train set from Chicago, Illinois.
Also being displayed are some
of the collector train action
accessories from the late 1940s
through the late 1960s.
This years N gauge display, from Mike Canavan, features a Kansas City Southern
engine with cars representing
various Midwestern rail lines
including an Atchison Topeka
Santa Fe caboose and a Leigh
Valley engine with various
cars representing Eastern rail
lines. Also being displayed
are pieces of railroad working
equipment.
Stop by, and once more,
take a look at the display case,
and perhaps visions of your
childhood, or the love of those
steam engines set under the
Christmas Tree could bring
you back in time. Merry
Christmas and may the spirit
of model rail roading be with
you and yours.

RECORD
Watt, publisher of The
Leader & Times in Liberal, said
he was motivated to become
part of Ad Astra because major
market journalism in the state
now ignores the founding principles of the nation.
We have an obligation to
provide Kansans with a view
that is intentionally being suppressed by statewide media,
Watt said. Kansans have been
asking for a resource that is
based in fact, in truth, and
rooted in Kansas values. The
Kansas Informer does that.
Dan Thalmann took issue
with Governor Kellys COVID
response in choosing a statewide shutdown he said wasnt
based on data, but instead was
a cookie-cutter template followed lock-step by Blue State
governors.
No one in the major Kansas
media ever questioned her
about it, said Thalmann,
publisher of the Washington
County News in Washington.
In fact, shutting down schools,
unwarranted mask mandates,
trying to keep boys in girls
locker rooms none of the
mainstream media in the state
ever criticizes her at all.
The Informer has also lined
up a bevy of conservative contributors present and former
publishers from some of the
states smaller media markets
as well as conservatives from
the political and not-for profit
arenas, private industry, and
former employees of major
daily newspapers and
TV stations who were
tired of being lonely
pariahs on their liberal staffs.

DAVIDS…
FROM PAGE 1
Republicans sought to punish
her for her attacks on Jews
and the State of Israel, and last
month voted against the House
censure of Tlaib after Tlaib
advocated the destruction of
Israel in protests citing the slogan From the river to the sea,
Palestine will be free.
Last week, Davids Overland
Park office became a venue for
the anti-Israel protest group
Jewish Voice for Peace, which
sought to convince Davids to
press Congress for a ceasefire resolution to halt Israels
counterattack against Gaza. A
Davids staffer ejected media
trying to cover the protest, saying landlord policy was that
no media be allowed on the
premises without advance permission. The incident did not
escape Davids chief political
opponent in the 2024 election,
Dr. Prasanth Reddy.
Sharice Davids is happy to
let anti-Israel protesters set up
shop in her public office, but
good luck if youre someone in
the media trying to expose it,
Reddy said in a statement. I
wish I could say Im surprised,
but given her present vote on
standing with Israel, this is
par for the course.
Though support for Israel
is strong in the Republicandominated rural counties
of Davids 3rd District, its
unclear to what degree her
loyalty to radical progressive
anti-Israel friends in congress
and skirting the condemnation
of anti-Semitism will affront
voters in the Jewish communities and others in Johnson
County, where her districts
population is most dense.
Margie Robinow, president
of the Heartland Republican
Jewish Coalition based in
Overland Park, said the tradition of Jewish people as political liberals and Democrat supporters was well established,
but that recent events may
have meant closer inspection
of Davids actions.
About 70 percent of
Jews consider themselves
Democrats, Robinow said,
though were seeing growth in
Independents and Republicans
since 2016. She said Davids
receives substantial financial support from the JOCO
Jewish community. She said
that though shes seen a number of social media posts showing surprise about her votes,
she doubts those concerns will
make a lasting impact.
I dont have high expectation for much change, since
many Jews are liberal religiously and politically. They
vote liberal/left despite their
own interests.
On Friday, Davids used her
vote to defend another anti-Israel Democrat in Congress,
New Yorks Jamaal Bowman,
in a censure vote that passed
214-191. Bowman, pulled a
fire alarm in the Canon House
Office Building on September
30 during a key funding vote to
avert a government shutdown,
forcing an evacuation of the
building and a delay on the
House vote.
With the incident captured on surveillance video,
Bowman was later charged
in D.C. court and fined $1,000.

Wednesday,
December 6,
2023.
Chuck was
born at home
Stanley
on
April
19, 1937, in
Garfield,
Arkansas, the son of Byrdsell
Andrew and Freda Alma
(Reddick) Stanley. Chucks
family lived in Arkansas until
moving to Exeter, Missouri
when he was around 10 years
old. In 1949 the family moved
to Stark, Kansas, where Chuck
attended and graduated from
Stark High School with the
class of 1955. Following school
Chuck began working as a carpenter in Chanute, Kansas with
Eby Construction Co., Inc.
In 1958, Chuck met his future
wife, Katherine Delores Byerley
through mutual friends and on
February 22, 1959, Chuck and
Katherine were united in marriage in Centerville, Kansas.
Their union was blessed with
two children, Ron and Anita.
They first made their home
in Leavenworth. Due to the
nature of Chucks work with
Eby, they would go on to live
in many places, finally settling
in DeSoto, Kansas in 1965. He
built their home in DeSoto
from lumber he salvaged from
a store in Mildred, Kansas
and the elementary school in
Stark, Kansas.They remained
there until 1980 when work
once again took them on the
road to Jacksonville, Florida,
Tuscaloosa, Alabama, and
Orlando, Florida. In 1990 he left
construction and came home
to the ranch he purchased in
Centerville, Kansas.
Chuck was a modest, hard
working, honest man who gave
100% to anything he undertook. He was the chairman of
the Centerville Community
Church board for many years, a
member of the Parker Masonic
Lodge and awarded the 2017
Kansas Bankers Association
Grassland Award. He built
two homes for himself and
Katherine; the family home in
1965 and again on the ranch in
1996. He also built homes for
Ron and Kim in Eudora in 1999
and for Rob and Anita in Paola,
KS in 1997.
He loved to be outdoors
and enjoyed fishing, quail and
pheasant hunting, canoeing
and kayaking. The family took
many memorable camping
vacations between jobs for Eby,
including California, Canada
and nearly every other state
in the country. He would also
take them to southern Missouri
any weekend he could to canoe
the rivers there. He loved his
church and could be found quietly taking care of anything he
saw there that needed attention.
He was preceded in death
by his parents; brother, Leon
McCoslin and sister, Thelma
Rhea.
Chuck is survived by his
wife, Katherine, of the home;
his son, Ronald Charles Stanley
and fiancee Tammy Austin of
Stanton, Kansas; his daughter,
Anita Burdge and husband
Robert of Paola, Kansas; former
daughter-in-law, Kim Stanley

everyones thoughts turn to
Christmas. Everyone has their
own Christmas traditions and
visions of what they want
Christmas to look like. The key
here is everyone. Traditions
are not difficult to manage as
we can agree in most cases
with each other. My vision and
your vision of what Christmas
should be is another matter. I
look back with fond memories
of Christmas past at my grandmothers house where I learned
to love the Lord. However time
has claimed my relatives and
what I once thought would last
forever as a child is gone.
Certainly as our children
grow and our families expand
we need to embrace that
growth and accept the changes that it brings. We spend so
much time and energy today
trying to create the perfect decorations, the perfect meal or
gift exchange and the perfect
gathering as well as keeping up
with our social calendar events
we lose track of the true meaning of Christmas. All of these
things are important but they
are relative. In the end some
may have to take priority over
others.
Many would disagree
but the one thing we cannot
exclude from Christmas is
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL

the celebration of the birth of
our Savior Jesus Christ. Luke
gives the most details of the
birth of Jesus in Luke 2:1-20, I
commend the reading of that to
you. The prophet Micah prophesied the birth of a Savior in
Bethlehem 700 years prior to
Jesus birth as well. (Micah 5:2)
In Matthew 28:18 Jesus
says, All authority in heaven

to me. As part of that power
and authority Jesus offers us a
personal relationship with him
which includes eternal life. Its
a free gift, just like someone
picking up a package under

If you dont receive the gift it

It is my prayer for you that you
will receive Jesus and begin

OPINION
Al Capones vault lives in Kobach emails
At the Topeka Capital-Journal, its almost
like 1986 again.
But this time instead of Al Capones vault,
some intrepid Geraldo Riveras on a laborious if
ill-fated excavation of Kansas Attorney General
Kris Kobachs personal email, which hes been
(raise suspicious eyebrow here) using for state
business.
What could possibly be in those emails?
The CJ baited us with the titillating front
page Japs-Bomb-Pearl-Harbor-sized headline
last Sunday: Kris Kobach leans on private
emails. Something lurid? Something corrupt?
Something (gasp) Pro-Life? Some long-buried
evidence definitively linking the attorney general to the formulaic debacle of New Coke?
Turns out the message hidden deep in the digital bits and bytes of those emails was even more
diabolical, the newspaper discovered. Cleverly
hop-scotching between his official state email
and his own private account, Kobach is pursuing a dastardly plan to fight fentanyls murderous impact in Kansas; to thwart human trafficking in the state and to fight illegal immigration
across our borders something Joe Biden is
supposed to be doing between naps.
Because if you think that fentanyl, trafficking
of human beings and illegal immigration arent
Kansas problems and arent all interrelated,
youre worse than wrong youre probably a
regular Capital-Journal reader.
Instead of some damning evidence of malfeasance illuminated by the CJs 4,100 word fishing expedition aimed at Kansas liberal medias
favorite and most resilient target, the result was
a double-patty nothing burger the equivalent
of My boss spent $209.13 on an open records
request and weeks of staff time trying to hang
Kris Kobach, and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.
Indeed, the buzz kill in the CJ newsroom
must have been like bringing in ice for the
Christmas party bar and then realizing its only
the middle of August. Newspaper staffers caught
a tip from some Nebraska correspondence on
a private email belonging to the attorney general and were convinced theyd stumbled onto
the Enigma code. Kobachs office turned over
nearly 1,000 pages of his emails in response to
an open records request which were copiously
poured over by CJ staff in search of some smoking gun. What they discovered was that Kobach
apparently really believes in what hes spent his
career doing and that his dry cleaner offers a
2-fer deal on Wednesdays.
This kind of scrutiny is of course nothing new
REVIEW COMMENTARY
DANE HICKS, Publisher
for Kobach, whos been harangued by media
and Lawrence sandal-wearing anarchists for
much of the past 20 years of his political and
professional life. Both as a law professor and as
an elected official, Kobachs had the audacity
to suggest people should follow the laws of the
United States and Kansas; that they should actually have some identification if they want to vote
in an election, and that they shouldnt enter the
country illegally. He also ascribes to the archaic
notion that women shouldnt kill their babies
in the womb. Most of all, he was unapologetic
about that cool Rat Patrol-style jeep with the
fake machine gun mounted in it that he rode in
when he ran for governor in 2018.
I mean, who does this guy think he is?
These cardinal sins against the Leftists trying
to turn America into George Soros pool house
have put Kobach on their 10 Most Unwanted list,
and made the liberal medias mouth water at
the prospect of catching him reusing a postage
stamp or double-parking at Hy-Vee.
The CapJourns article of course doesnt
claim Kobach bouncing emails between his official and personal accounts is illegal because
it isnt they just shame him for his correspondence lacking Fort Knox-style security. Kind of
like being guilt-bombed for not getting your kid
the Covid vax, or letting him eat Mac & Cheese.
The newspapers attempt to rake muck ended up
with barely a hair in the soup. Okay, we should
all be better about wearing our seatbelts and
those geeky bicycle helmets; but4,100 words?
Instead, the most important thing to come out
of the opus is the importance of the issues Kobach
emails about. Combating and prosecuting dealers of a drug thats 50 times more addictive

Schumer tastes poison fruit of Democrat antisemitism
Late last month U.S. Senate Majority
Leader Chuck Schumer delivered a remarkable speech from the well of the Senate on the
rise of antisemitism in America.
The Democratic senator from New York
believed he had to make that speech. He was
also surprised at having to surprised at the
antisemitism that has been growing under the
surface of todays Democrat Party.
Schumer spoke with the painful passion of
a man who is beginning to understand that
his world is being upended, noting, I stand
before you as the majority leader of the United
States Senate, the highest elected office a
Jewish person has ever attained in the history
of this country. Only in America only in
America could an exterminators son grow
up to be the first Jewish party leader in the
Senate.
Getting to the heart of the matter, Schumer
explained that while Jewish Americans represent 2 percent of the population, yet we are
targets of 55 percent of all religion-based hate
crimes, with things getting worse in recent
years. After Hamas Oct. 7 massacre of Israeli
civilians, antisemitism incidents increased
nearly 300 percent with Jewish Americans
feeling singled out, he added.
Schumer then admitted, The solidarity
that Jewish Americans initially received
from many of our fellow citizens was quickly
drowned out by other voices, while the dead
bodies of Jewish Israelis were still warm.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
CHUCK DEVORE TEXAS PUBLIC POLICY INST.
And who were those other voices that
Schumer said celebrated what happened,
describing it as the deserved fate of colonizers and calling for glory to the martyrs?
Thats what must have been the most difficult part of Schumers speech: Many of
the people who express these sentiments in
America arent neo-Nazis or card-carrying
Klan members or Islamist extremists. Theyre
in many cases what most liberal Jewish
Americans felt previously were their ideological fellow travelers (emphasis added).
Schumer almost plaintively added, Many
of us marched together for black and brown
lives, we stood against anti-Asian hatred and
protested bigotry against the LGBTQ community and fought for reproductive justice.
The bottom line: Schumer has evidently
now discovered that, despite millennia of
persecution stretching back to hundreds of
years as slaves in Egypt, despite the pogroms
of Eastern Europe in the 19th century, and
despite Hitlers Holocaust in the last, those
who are inclined to examine the world
through the lens of oppressors versus the
oppressed see Jewish people as the oppressor.
It appears the woke left cares not for history. Their new religion requires a new good
and evil. The good are always the oppressed
for whom by any means necessary will
mean violence, while the oppressors deserve
humiliation, defeat, and even death. Of
course, the woke clerisy get to determine who
is oppressed senior Jewish senators need
not apply.
Thus, Schumers observation that antisemitic conspiracy theories throughout the
generations often theorize, often weaponize
this very dynamic [that is, that some Jewish
people have done well for themselves] by
pitting the successes the Jewish people have
done with their countrymen. It has happened
throughout history. Its happening now. For
Jewish Americans, any strength in security
we enjoy always feels tenuous no matter
how well were doing, it can all be taken away
in an instant.
Yes, Mr. Majority Leader, thats why we
Americans believe we have unalienable
rights such as life, liberty, and the pursuit of

Henry Kissinger should take no blame for Cambodias chaos
Henry Kissinger, the great American statesman who has died at age 100, stands accused
by his critics of many things, but perhaps the
most outlandish is that he bears responsibility for the killing fields of Pol Pots Cambodia.
Implementing a radical communist vision
drawn from Mao and especially the Cultural
Revolution, Pol Pot and his comrades killed
roughly a quarter of the countrys population
through execution and starvation resulting
from forced collectivization and population
transfers.
This Red Guard-like ideological frenzy
is somehow attributed to the Cold Warrior
Henry Kissinger.
The Nixon administrations secret bombing of Cambodia and a brief invasion notoriously known as the incursion, are often
called war crimes. They supposedly destabilized Cambodia and drove the Khmer Rouge
mad — otherwise, we are assured, Cambodia
would have escaped the chaos that engulfed
the region in a decades-long military conflict
and the Khmer Rouge would have been moderate reformers.
Much is made, in the anti-Kissinger case,
of Cambodian neutrality. But the countrys
neutral status had already been flagrantly
violated by North Vietnam, which ran fighters and materiel through Cambodia on the
Ho Chi Minh trail. Michael Lind writes in his
book, Vietnam: The Necessary War, By
1970, North Vietnam had in effect annexed
eastern Cambodia, to the extent of restricting
the access of Cambodian officials and taxing
and drafting Cambodia peasants.
Why should the North have been allowed
to use Cambodias territory to launch attacks
into South Vietnam and against U.S. forces
with impunity? Its not illegal under international law, let alone a war crime, to attack
belligerents across a border.
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
It is also presumed to be a terrible thing
that the bombing campaign, begun in March
1969, was initially secret. It wasnt publicly announced to avoid embarrassing the
Cambodian government of Prince Norodom
Sihanouk. He went along with the operation targeting North Vietnamese bases on the
border to placate sentiment in his country
against the foreign presence.
When Sihanouk was toppled by a pro-U.S.
general, Lon Nol, he threw himself into the
arms of the Khmer Rouge.
Although they eventually had a break, the
Khmer Rouge was a North Vietnamese project.
Pol Pots biographer David Chandler writes:
Until the end of 1972, his troops were armed,
trained, and often led by the Vietnamese. The
defeats suffered by Lon Nol in 1970-1971 had
been at the hands of Vietnamese regular forces.
The U.S. held off the Khmer Rouge with
a further bombing campaign in 1973, but
Congress cut off support and the group swept
to power.
While the Left prettied up the Khmer
Rouge, the Nixon administration issued prescient warnings. In urging Congress to continue support, an assistant secretary of state
warned that there would be an unbelievable
transformation of that society against the
wishes of its general population and through
the use of great force.
Whose fault was that? Kissinger enemies
Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman aver,
when poor peasants are driven into the jungle from villages destroyed by bombing, they
may seek revenge.
Oh, really? Genocidal revenge against their
countrymen who werent piloting the B-52s?
As Lind notes, Laos was the most heavily
bombed country during the war, and yet it
didnt descend into killing fields.
The Khmer Rouge were already implementing their lunatic vision in territory they
controlled prior to taking over. In his book,
Cambodia: Year Zero, Father Francois
Ponchaud wrote that the catastrophic emptying out of the capital, Phnom Penh, followed
traditional revolutionary practice — indeed,
the guerrilla fighters had been sending all
inhabitants of the villages and towns they
occupied into the forests to live, often burning
their homes so they would have nothing to
come back for.
They did it out of a profound ideological commitment, not in reaction to Henry
Kissinger. The former secretary of state has a
complicated legacy, understandably for someone so influential for so long, but hes not
responsible for the unspeakable enormities of
fanatics he fought to keep out of power.

The first significant snow
arrived well before winter this
year. Thankfully, it fell over
Thanksgiving weekend, which
meant I could savor the landscapes transition to white from
the comfort of my living room.
This was fortunate because I
hadnt yet taken the proper precautions for cold, snowy weather.
My two-wheel drive truck
didnt have any added weight
in the back. There also was
no extra coat, extra boots with
wool socks and a pair of winter
gloves stashed in the cab along
with an emergency blanket
that looks like a big piece of
aluminum foil. Ive added all
of those and also topped up the
tires with air. If I do end up in a
ditch, Id much rather be warm
and dry while waiting for help.
Despite all this preparation,
Id still rather not risk finding
a ditch or worse during winter weather. The best course is
to stay home. When thats not
possible, however, its best to
be prepared with some extra
clothes and a few essentials
that should be in a vehicle
regardless of the season. Items
like a working flashlight, extra
batteries, matches, candles
and, if you regularly travel to
areas with limited cell recep-

tion, some food.
Cold, wet weather makes the
difference between a bad day
and a catastrophic one razor
thin. If you do run into trouble,
help will take longer to arrive
and your survival will depend
on what you have in your vehicle. Topping off your gas tank
before a trip can ensure a few
extra hours of heat if you get
stranded.
Usually, your vehicle will
offer the most protection from
the elements and will be easier
to spot in the elements than an
individual. If its safe, the best
thing to do is stay inside the
cab and keep warm. Being on
the side of a slippery road with
reduced visibility is a recipe for
getting hit by oncoming traffic.
And, in blizzard conditions, its
exceedingly easy to get lost just
a few feet from your vehicle.
Common sense when driving
also goes a long way. Check the

weather on the route to your
destination before leaving. You
can even check road conditions
at places like www.kandrive.
org. Give yourself more time
to account for driving slower
and stopping more often if necessary. Do without the cruise
control if its snowing or icing
out and remember four-wheel
drive doesnt do anything to
increase your ability to stop on
slick surfaces.
If conditions allow you to
be outside the vehicle, proceed
with caution. If youre attempting to dig out of a snowbank
or performing other physical
tasks, take plenty of breaks and
stay warm. Slow and steady
will help keep one accident
from becoming another.
Its far better to arrive at
your destination a little late
rather than never arrive at all.
Take the extra time to prepare
as we drive into winter so we
can all enjoy the longer, warmer days that lie ahead.

FROM PAGE 1
Wilson dated November 20,
asking for a mutual separation with the city and a settlement package equal to 120 days
compensation at the salary at
which she was hired, estimated
at some $20,000. City commissioners have so far taken no
action on the demand, and did
not address it publicly after an
executive session portion of the
December 5 regular commission meeting.
In her letter, Harrison
maintained she had been
harassed into leaving the position by the actions of former
economic development director Turnipseed, claiming she
endured hostility, oppression,
intimidation and harassment,
as well as what she termed
criminal theft of items from
her office.
The extreme humiliation
I have suffered as a result of
Julies actions going unchecked
is unacceptable, Harrison
wrote in the letter to Wilson.
In exchange for the settlement, Harrison says in the letter she would sign a non-disclosure agreement pledging
not to recount her treatment,
contingent on the city agreeing
not to disparage her over the
incident.
Garnett partners with
Anderson County to fund the
joint economic development
post under auspices of the
Anderson County Development
Agency and splits those associated expenses, but the hired
staffer is technically a city
employee with city compensation and benefits.

favorite plate among five
designs created by Mammoth

marketing firm, in partnership
with Kansas Tourism. Voting
will end at 5 p.m. on Friday,
December 15.
The five options, while continuing to align with Kansas
Tourisms To the Stars
branding and the already
announced guidelines, incorporate previous public feedback such as a lighter blue on
the original proposal, a State
of Kansas outline, wheat, and
sunflowers. The plate proposals were also chosen because
they prioritize public safety.
Clear, simple designs enable
law enforcement officers and
traffic systems to quickly and
easily read the license plate
number.
Legible and high-contrast
license plates are important for
the Kansas Turnpike and for
Kansans when they drive on
other toll roads, Steve Hewitt,
CEO of the Kansas Turnpike
Authority, said. Having clear
State of Kansas license plates
will be crucial in keeping tolls
low as we transition to cashless
tolling in mid-2024.
Kansans can vote on their
favorite design as many times
as they would like until voting closes on Friday. Votes will

of happiness and a Constitution
to make those rights more than
theory including a right to
keep and bear arms, so that all
Americans, including those of
the Jewish faith, might protect
themselves, their homes, and
their places of worship. And
should that somehow break
down and prove an insufficient
guarantor of safety, the state of
Israel itself, as the worlds sole
Jewish state, serves as a refuge, a redoubt where the existence of the Jewish people isnt
dependent on the sufferance of
mob or majority.
One wonders how Schumer
will work through his revelation of betrayal. What path will
he take? Will political expediency cause him to cut his journey short? Will the threat of
the political wilderness cause
him to bury his fears about the
new left and its inveterate Jew
hatred?
The fractures now rending
the Democrat Party moved
from the fringe to academia
to the mainstream in a terrifyingly short span. By 2010,
President Barack Obama made
no secret of his antipathy
for Israels leader Benjamin
Netanyahu, who started his
second stint as prime minister
only two months after Obama
was sworn into office. And with
his subsequent rapprochement
with the Islamic Republic
of Iran, Obamas tilt against
Israel burst into the open. The
ideological roots of that policy have now matured and are
bearing a poisoned fruit. We
already see its first casualty
in the lefts crumbling faade,
as common agreements shatter
and basic survival and dignity assume greater importance
than abortion and tax policy.
Its hard to work with people who, chanting, From the
river to the sea, Palestine will
be free, are advocating for the
death and diaspora of millions
of your co-religionists.
The answer to the above
questions might well determine Americas future, as we
labor to enlist the better angels
of our nature to exorcise the
latest demons of hate stalking
among us.

ed plate will be announced on
Monday, December 18, 2023.
The State of Kansas incurred
no additional costs for designing the new license plate
options or the voting website;
both were covered by existing
contracts with Kansas-based
firms. The timeline for distributing the new plates will be
altered due to the preproduction processes needing to be
performed after the new design
is selected.
In the meantime, with the
help of county treasurer offices, the Kansas Department
of Revenue will continue its
license plate modernization
project as originally scheduled, transitioning embossed
plates to the digitally produced
license plate process introduced in 2018. The delay of the
new design does not halt this
process; all plates will continue to be printed with the current design until the new one is
selected and printing systems
adjusted.

Lady Bulldogs pick up historic road win vs Baldwin Lady Bulldog grapplers
BALDWIN It may have only
been the second game of the
season but when the Anderson
County Bulldogs knocked off
Baldwin on the road, not only
did they move to 2-0 it was the
first time in at least the past 19
years they have scored a win
against them.
It took a thrilling 3 overtimes for the Bulldogs to pull
out the 50-47 win.
It was all Anderson County
early as they led by as many as
12 points in the first quarter en
route to a 15-5 lead heading into
the second period.
Baldwin would rally during
the second and third quarters
by outscoring AC 24-13 to take a
slim 29-28 lead heading into the
final quarter of play. Baldwin
would lead by as many as three
points in the fourth quarter,
but AC would rally to knot the
game at 35 apiece at the end of
regulation.
Kylie Disbrow connected on
7 of her 8 attempts from the free
throw line down the stretch in
the fourth and first overtime.
A pair of starters, Caitlyn Foltz
and Alexis Overstreet, for AC
fouled out in the fourth making
the overtime periods that much
more difficult.
In the first overtime the
teams only mustered two
points each and in the second
they only each tallied three
points.
The scoring picked up in the
third overtime as Anderson
County closed out the win with
a 10-7 advantage.
Addie Fudge took over from
the line in the third overtime,
draining 7 of 8 free throws to
close out the victory.
Coach Disbrow was ecstatic with the win, This was a
very exciting game and I am
thrilled these girls were able to
get the win, Disbrow added,
Baldwin always plays tough
defense and with lots of pressure, we kept fighting through
adversity.
Disbrow was proud of the
way Brylie Kohlmeier and
Taylor Clark stepped up in the
absence of the two starters that
fouled out during regulation.
Both teams shot a ton of free
throws on the night, but the
Bulldogs made the most of their
attempts. On the night, AC
knocked down 21 of 31 attempts
for 68% while Baldwin left a
lot of points off the scoreboard
by connecting on just 22 of 42
attempts (52%).
Disbrow led the Bulldogs
tallying a triple double with
22 points, had 17 blocks and 15
rebounds.
Addie Fudge chipped in with
12 points and 3 assists. Foltz
was in double figures as well
with 10 points, 10 rebounds and
3 steals.
Rilyn Sommer scored 6
points and had 8 rebounds.
AC girls remaining undefeated, down Louisburg
LOUISBURG The Anderson
County Bulldogs improved
their record to 3-0 on the
young season with a 35-31 over
Louisburg on the road Friday
night.
It wasn't always pretty, but
the Lady Bulldogs found a way
to hang on. AC led 14-11 after
the first quarter and had some
offensive struggles in the second, Louisburg regained the
lead heading into intermission
leading 19-18.
The second half wasn't an
offensive clinic by any means,
but the Bulldogs defense
was stout all night, holding
Louisburg to 12 points in the
second half en route to the
comeback.
ACHS won the game at the
free throw line as both teams
struggled from the field shooting less than 30%. The Lady
Bulldogs connected on 17 of 27
(63%) of their free throws compared to Louisburg going just 4
of 11 (36%).
Kylie Disbrow led all scorers with 14 points and added 6
rebounds and 7 blocks in just
AC boys can't keep pace with
Baldwin
BALDWIN The Anderson
County boys dropped to 0-2
on the young season as they
dropped a road contest last
Tuesday at Baldwin 65-45.
Baldwin took control from
the tip and never looked back
against the Bulldogs. Baldwin
led 14-6 after the first quarter
and stretched their lead out to
31-12 at intermission.
The Bulldogs did heat up in
the third, tallying 21 points, but
Baldwin responded with 18 of
their own to lead 49-33 heading
into the final quarter.
Baldwin outpaced AC in the
fourth quarter, 16-12, to close
things out.
Wheat led the Bulldogs with
18 points on the night. He
tallied 11 of the Bulldogs 21
points in the third quarter and
knocked down four three-pointers on the evening.
Hawkins scored 9 points,
Kueser and Porter each tallied
6 and the trio of Steele, Jasper
and Martin each scored two
points.
Bulldogs still winless on the season
LOUISBURG A sluggish first
half again put the Anderson
County Bulldogs into a double
digit halftime deficit that was
too much to overcome in a 44-37
loss on the road Friday night to
Louisburg.
Both teams started slow as
Louisburg led just 10-7 after the
game's first 8 minutes.
Louisburg picked up the
pace in the third quarter tallying 18 points while limiting the
Bulldogs to just 5 to take a 28-12
lead into the halftime break.
As in their previous game
this week against Baldwin, the
Bulldogs's best quarter of the
night was the third. They more
than doubled their first half

with 13 points. Brayden Wheat
