Bravo to Henderson couple who made Christmas brighter for local children

I read the front-page article about the good deed of a wealthy couple, Bob and Sandy Ellis (“All here: Girls, boys, toys, joys,” Monday Review-Journal). I don’t know them from Adam, but this is really a very good way to share their wealth.

All these kids, 750 of them, who received gifts from this couple will not forget this Christmas. A pair of shoes or slippers is a big gift to these kids. These gifts means a lot to them.

What a joy it must be for this couple to be giving gifts to these kids.

Mr. Ellis is right: How nice it would be if we had more of our wealthy families give to these underprivileged kids. Before we think of sending a penny to other countries, why not spend it for our underprivileged kids?

I hope Bob and Sandy Ellis have a wonderful holiday season.

It seems clear that, left on his own, Mr. Biden is no longer capable of functioning independently and this is likely one of the reasons why he has not participated in many media interviews during his presidency.

LETTER: President and immunity

Isn’t it rich that Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor predicts a parade of horrors will follow the court’s majority decision that a president has limited immunity?

LETTER: $%#$ those California plates!

Every time I go anywhere, I see vehicles with expired plates, no plates and no temporary registration. Every time. Where are the traffic police?
