One thing Phoebe Putney Hospital has going for it is its employees. Great people, one and all. Professional, caring … and Chelcie was a real blessing.

Just a bunch of numbers Ms. Fletcher? Year after year of posting high crime numbers, high unemployment numbers and high exit numbers for city residents‎ is clear lack of competent municipal management.

Trump’s next demand is going to be forget the flag and national anthem, all Americans will stand at attention and praise me like North Koreans do their supreme leader.

I was fascinated with the story about the Albany Cares Group. I’d like to find out more.

Where is all of this new business downtown that Albany’s city manager and downtown manager have promised during the past two years? So far, nothing but smoke.

Thank you Joel Wernick for doing a fine job at Phoebe. If Jesus himself ran Phoebe, people would find fault and complain.

If, according to the FBI in the heavily redacted IG report, Trump supporters are supposed to be so stupid, why is it the opposition seems to be the ones having a difficult time understanding the concept of the Electoral College?

Congratulations Sonja Tolbert. I’ve always appreciated the way you get the job done as the city clerk, especially with some of the people you have to work for.

To the guy complaining about being charged $650 for a tetanus shot at Phoebe: How else were they going to come up with a $7.1 million going-away present for Joel Wernick?

The pothole at Broadway and Clark is dangerous, you can’t even see it at night. It needs to be taken care of.

Congratulations to Plains on their new medical clinic. Too bad Phoebe didn’t see the need.

The Democratic voters hate Trump because he will not bow down to the left.

When I saw it a few weeks ago in the paper, they were looking at how to raise funds, I knew they’d do the same thing: Go to the well to get it from the older people who can’t leave Albany. That well’s going to go dry one day.

This is for the person or persons who stole the bird bath from my mother’s gravesite in Riverside Cemetery: You are a bunch of low-lifes, but that’s to be expected because this place is full of people just like you.

Sean in the toy department at Walmart is an asset to that store. He is so knowledgeable and helpful and always with a smile on his face.

Let the tariffs come on. We need our jobs back here in the United States. We need to build and buy our own stuff.

Albany Public Works needs to take care of that big pothole at the corner of Slappey and Highland with the wire sticking up. It’s been like that for months, and nothing’s been done. Get on your job. We pay taxes.

If all these people who want to let all the illegal aliens in and don’t want them separated from their children, let them open their houses to these people.

It doesn’t matter how many quarterbacks Lou Saban uses at Alabama, he will still defeat the Georgia Bulldogs. Roll Tide.
