So, squawker, you think Nancy Pelosi was rude to Trump? Let me remind you of the Republican Congressman from South Carolina who stood up in the middle of one of Obama’s State of the Union addresses and yelled, “You lie!” So, no, Democrats do not have a monopoly on rudeness and disrespect.

Whatever happened to Fight Albany Blight? Haven’t heard a word about it since Bobby Coleman left office.

I love the new Chick-Fil-A, but I recommend re-opening the drive-thru location. There is enough business.

I don’t care about the results of the election and whether Brian Kemp was wrong to stay on as secretary of state while he was running for office. I’m just glad to see that he came to southwest Georgia and is following the path Gov. Nathan Deal set.

I think President Trump is a very nice man who cares about senior citizens like me and will do everything he can to make sure my golden years are happy ones. Y’all need to leave him alone.

If AOC and Stacey Abrams are the rising stars of the Democratic Party, then God help us because the sun will be setting on our country. Once that socialism horse gets out of the barn, there won’t be any putting it back. Just look around the world, surely you can’t want that here.

The Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast was an amazing gathering. So proud of the people who put it on every year, for Mayor Hubbard’s participation and for the work that Mr. Larry Price does to organize the event.

Do you know how much schooling you have to have to become a Democrat? You go in the front door and out the back door and you are qualified. The proof is in the pudding.

Still waiting to hear what is going to happen to the coach(es) and administrators who let the illegal player play at Monroe, costing the other athletes on the team an excellent season.

President Trump’s State of the Union speech was not surprising in any way. He said what he thought people wanted to hear, but in the end it will turn out to be more of the lies he’s been telling since before and after he took office.

Whether you liberals like it or not, a CBS poll showed 76 percent of viewers approved of Trump’s State of the Union address.

I an a 75-year-old woman, and I have never heard such foul language coming out of the mouths of these children running loose in our neighborhoods. I’m scared to say anything to them, afraid they will attack me. What is our world and our young people coming to?

When you elect someone to represent you in the city, county or state governments, there should be community meetings to inform citizens. Did the elected commissioner talk only to the person with the most money to gain?

If you think you know so much about music, Fletcher, who is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame the most times, as an individual artist and with other groups? And don’t look on Google.

Does Roger Marietta really think he has a chance of ever becoming mayor of Albany? You’re fooling yourself, Roger. Maybe you should aim a little lower, move over to TyTy and see how you do there.
