Gaines clearly doesn’t fully understand Albany. Our city’s services for low-income families are stretched to the limit. This includes Phoebe and our school system, among others. Hundreds of us work hard everyday to help the less fortunate, and we have no more capacity to give. Please, no more public housing.

Interesting the proliferating number of nonprofits having full-time “dedicated” exec directors, staff and rented offices, nondefinitive mission statements, undisclosed actual beneficiaries, no measurable results. Please send them a check.

No matter how much people talk bad about Biden’s great economy, the Democrats will win on the abortion issue.

Remember the airplane loads of U.S. cash ($6 billion) that Obama sent to Iran? We are now paying the price with deaths and injuries of our military personnel by terrorist groups that we have indirectly funded. Got to get the clowns out of Washington. Remember in November.

Escalating global crisis, U.S. $31T in debt and inescapably fighting four escalating war fronts (southern border, Ukraine, middle east, China) at a cost of $3B per month, yet for voters the choice between only two aged presidential leaders, the proven senile inept and the incontrovertible lunatic. Stupid electorate.

Is this the same Municipal Court judge whose court was involved in the scandal that was never fully disclosed?

I quite often see pictures of Trump on TV with his dukes up. I wish one time that fat slob would get in the ring with even an armature boxer and get knocked on his duff, crying like a little baby.

To Mr. Miscreant, the supposed educated, fact-filled conservative veteran voter: Naw, you are not my worst nightmare. I just don’t care about you that much, nor am I impressed with your so-called credentials. Intelligence and common sense are not measured by chest thumping. Are you trying to convince me or you?

Donald Trump doesn’t want a border deal, which is good for the country. Trump wants the economy to tank, bad for the country. Trump hates that gas prices and inflation are down and the economy overall is booming. He wants the country to fail. If you care about him, you’re an idiot. The Equality Man

Enjoyed William Cooper’s piece in Thursday perspectives.

Vilnis Gaines is dangerously uninformed. Albany actually has an oversupply of housing. There is a glut of unoccupied homes. We do have an undersupply of work ethic. Too many would prefer to race their Chargers to the next pastor food giveaway than get a job. The last thing we need is more government housing.

Democrats are lawless. I believe they must hate America. How can anyone who loves this country think of voting for Mr. Biden? How can someone vote for a president who allows murderers to be released from jail? If you vote for President Biden, you are as guilty as he. Vote correctly this year and avoid a world war.

Trump can only win if he picks Herschel as his VP. Herschel is a true pro-life Republican. Just ask all of his former girlfriends.
