This unexpected move, just four months before the election, was influenced by a poor debate performance that raised concerns about his fitness for office. Biden’s decision comes after significant pressure from Democratic allies post-debate, where his performance was marked by trailing off, giving nonsensical answers, and not challenging Trump’s fal...

  • Decision Making

    Edward Martin|Jul 25, 2024

    As usual, this is being written about a week before it will appear in the Cascade Courier. Normally, that doesn’t matter, this week it really might. I am deeply concerned that there is a high potential for violence in our future. Our political life has become so polarized and there are so many people who believe violence is an acceptable way of dealing with disagreements that bloodshed seems inevitable. To be absolutely transparent, I do not believe violence is ever justified unless and until i...

  • Quilting a Community

    Nancy Royan|Jul 25, 2024

    You can create a quilt to look pretty or fancy. A show piece. It doesn’t have to be durable and weather the storms. It isn’t created to warm or protect the group. You want it to win prizes so you can feel good about your final goal. A fancy quilt is cleverly made. All the pieces are cut precisely beforehand, match perfectly, and the design is chosen to make an impression, not necessarily to weather time.
