When I see mail or packages disappear on the day it shows they’re to be delivered, I wonder who is getting my mail. It bothers me that they’re getting my name and address and personal info. Also I wonder about mail I’m missing that doesn’t even make it to Albany.

Albany Commissioners, this isn’t 11th-grade social studies anymore. With multiple priority issues facing our city, your meeting with no agenda is insulting to all local hard-working, taxpaying voters. The lack of preparedness and organization is another reason new employers will not choose Albany for new locations. The Patriot

Our forebears of the antebellum South are being subjected to pervasive dishonest slander. Brave and honorable people who did far more than their fair share in the creation of the United States are now the default villains in every historical treatise and discussion.

Just think. If Trump had been re-elected, the USA would probably be shipping weapons and ammunition to Russia to use against Ukraine to help his buddy Putin.

While realizing there is a need to clear property/agricultural land of refuse, the harm done to old people and others with respiratory conditions should be taken into account. Last Friday a.m. the sky was gray and the air was choking folks. I’ll never burn anything … there are other ways to get rid of trash. Please consider the health of others.

Let’s talk embarrassment: That would be Lauren Boebert and Marjorie Taylor Greene who heckled President Biden during his SOTU address.

Please don’t waste editorial space on Michael Reagan.

New road into Oakland next to Medical Associates connecting Highway 82 with roundabout may be “Boulevard at Oakland” upscale retail project proposed in 2018. Large tract of land sold recently would be welcome addition to Lee commercial in area.

Conservative squawker, who are you taking America back from? It’s so-called conservative policies that sold America. Who put in place policies which allowed the Japanese in the ’60s and ’70s, the Saudis in the ’80s and ’90s and now the Russians to own or finance critical parts of the American economy? Be informed. Cut the strings of the puppeteer.

The pendulum will not swing to the left in Georgia. Georgia is now and will always remain a red state.

The courts have decided law enforcement can continue their lawsuits against Trump over his part on Jan 6. Who do you fake Christian’s support? The blue or the orange messiah?

I loved Gary Allan’s show at the Civic Center. I hope the folks running the center will keep bringing acts like this — and others from other genres so that everyone can get in on the fun. We have to do our part and support the shows, though.
