Chris Cohilas once again does the bidding of Phoebe and its law firm that just happens to employ him.

I blame the two Dougherty County lawyers — Spencer and Chris — for the McCoy and Phoebe/Lee fiascoes.

Dougherty Country Commissioners, STOP! Stop wasting our money fighting against better health care for our area. Stop hiring people that will turn around and have a lawsuit against the county. You need to be better stewards of our money. Behavior like this does not attract taxpayers to our country, it causes them to leave. Cohilas, you are not helping.

Ridiculous on this Lee County hospital fight. Somebody is getting paid off big-time money. Money is the only answer to why they’re dragging it out.

Enjoyed reading the Sunday paper about the bloody history of the Native Americans. Your article was really eye-opening.

A friend told me he had surgery at Crisp Regional last year for $2,400. Phoebe wanted $7,400 for the same.

Stormy Daniels is becoming a feminist icon. More and more women should embrace her … I know I would.

The Democrats are responsible for the opioid addiction in America. They don’t want the borders closed so that the drugs can flow through freely.

Taxpayers, inconceivable, your county commissioners have hired at your expense an attorney to file a last-ditch lawsuit in Fulton Superior Court to stop Lee County’s approved hospital. All for the benefit of tax-exempt Phoebe Putney.

It’s 5:15 a.m. on Monday morning, and I would love to say that something should be done about that blinding sign Albany State has, but I know nothing will be done.

What’s the real reason Gordy Gruhl suddenly retired at Deerfield?

Why is Phoebe so afraid of competition? They bought Palmyra Medical Center and turned it into an empty building. Spencer Lee and his wife have worked for Phoebe for years and years and years.

Dougherty County has already made a big enough mess of itself. Don’t do this to Lee County.

Joe Biden is the best candidate the Democrats can come up with to run against Donald Trump in 2020? Welcome to another four years of Donald Trump.

I ain’t real sure if sending a bunch of teenage boys off to a camp to talk about not getting girls pregnant is gonna help or worsen the situation.

About a month ago, Trump had a meeting with the prince from Saudi Arabia. Ever since that meeting, the price of gas has gone up.

Trump don’t whine. He hits back when he’s attacked. And that’s why the Democrats are whining.

Walmart needs to enforce the express lane rules. I’m tired of people with full carts when they are supposed to have no more than 20 items.

Why can’t Carlton Fletcher write an article about Mediacom and ask them why we don’t get reception from TV stations outside of Albany?

All right people, we’ve got to get out and vote. We don’t want to lose our food stamps.

No, Georgia boy, not a Gator or a Tiger. I am a Red Elephant. Let’s talk national titles … oh, wait, it’s been almost 40 years since you had one of those animals. Roll Tide!
