Established as The Skamokawa Eagle in 1891
To The Eagle:
In response to Mr. Bouchard’s letter to the editor in last week’s newspaper, the “absurd statue” that he apparently labeled “Wahkiakum County’s official roadside eyesore,” is a replica of a piece of art that was created by Michelangelo, and his name is David. Everywhere else in the world he is considered a masterpiece and even a symbol of the defense of civil liberties. If Italy isn’t embarrassed by him, why should we be?
As for the “vote for Biden” sign, I ask how many Republicans are on the city councils of Portland and Seattle, where protests, riots and looting are happening? None. No one associated with the sign has said that the riots are Mr. Biden’s fault, only that he is a member of the party that condones them.
