I WONDER WHY when someone goes to work for the county or the state, it gives them the right to talk down to the people they deal with?

HEY, COMMISSIONERS: How about repaving the roads and streets in Richmond County! I'm tired of trying to avoid holes, cracks, bumps, missing asphalt, too high or too low manhole covers and all other conditions. Broad, Reynolds, Wrightsboro roads, Walton Way and many others are in terrible shape. Only Washington Road is in fairly good shape.

CHARLIE NORWOOD VA Medical Center? What did he do to deserve that? He was a dentist and a do-nothing congressman.

I HAVE NEVER HEARD so much hate spewing from the mouths of so-called adults when it comes to voting for a nomination for president! GROW UP.

IT IS TRULY AMAZING that Athens gets a satellite campus of MCG but Augusta can't get a satellite campus of the UGA Law School.

MY RANT? Newspapers and TV news constantly referring to evangelical Christians. The double talk is irritable. It's like saying Christian Christians.

SOMEBODY PLEASE TELL ME where in the Constitution it says it's the business of Congress to be concerned with steroid use in baseball. Oh, right, baseball is a lot more fun than tackling silly issues like the national debt, energy independence, environmental issues, Islamic terrorism, outsourcing manufacturing, overhauling the tax code, reining in lobbyists, etc.

RAVES FOR those teachers and other school workers who day-in and day-out do their best to help students learn in the face of an anti-intellectual popular culture, an absence of administrative support, enabling parents and chronic disruption.

RAVES TO the Greenbrier High administration for calling in the Columbia County Sheriff's Office to deal with terroristic threats.

IN 1933, GIUSEPPE ZANGARA shot at Franklin Roosevelt and killed the Chicago mayor. Zangara "was executed more than four weeks later." That means in roughly five weeks, he had been tried, convicted, and executed. Ohhhh, for swift justice to return!

NEW ORLEANS PEOPLE are screaming about FEMA trailers being poisonous. Those same people have lived off the dole for two years, staying in those stupid trailers rather than getting out and fending for themselves.
