June Bug Griffin and James Bush have proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that term limits should be imposed on the Dougherty County Board of Education.

That guy that recently got shot by police in California was too lazy to get a job, so he got up early and broke into people’s cars. When he was told to put his hands up, he chose to pull out his cellphone. I guess the police should have waited until he shot one of them and everything would be all right.

President Trump is the first president in my 75 years that actually puts meat in jobs he assigns people to. You either do the job or you’re fired.

I’ve never been in a town like Albany that has so much beauty and pride and has so many stupid drivers.

Trump just hired John Bolton, a warmonger from the Iraq war. Why are you Republicans so eager to kill our young soldiers in wars?

The name of the Masters golf tournament must be changed, as it resurrects the image of the old slave masters. Also, the word plantation should be stricken from the English language.

It is totally ridiculous for the garbage picker-uppers to shake those containers the way they do and tear the lids off. It makes the price we pay go up.

Albany officials announced about six weeks ago that they were going to start resurfacing city streets. Well, those of us on Nottingham Way, North Doublegate and Westgate are still waiting.

One thing the police department needs to address in Albany is these trucks pulling trailers. Most of them don’t have tail lights or signal lights or anything.

After this budget deal we passed today, I’m disgusted with both parties, Republicans and Democrats and Donald Trump. What’s the need in voting, they’re going to screw you anyway?

Way to go Trump and Republicans. You proved again that you’re spineless with the omnibus. You’ll lose again in the fall and the Democrats will be in control again.

All these young individuals marching for gun control, when they’re in school, they might want to learn about mouth control. You bully people, and they’re going to respond.

Lord have mercy, gas prices have jumped 20 to 30 cents a gallon in a week. There may be some explanation, but I don’t know what it could be with the amount we’re refining of our own.

If you’re sick of the garbage coming out of Hollywood, you need to go see “I Can Only Imagine.”

You can bet if Obama had a shady past, it would have been found out and revealed. Obama was too classy to cheat on his wife.

I just read in the paper where a Democratic candidate in South Florida is bringing up the issue of guns because her father was shot in Ecuador. I guess Trump and the NRA will be blamed for that, too.

I hope Darrel can bring horse racing to Albany.

With the loss of Zell Miller, Georgia has now lost its two champions.

I’m of the opinion that the Earth has gone through countless climate changes and will continue to.

Get rid of the gangs, and you’ll get rid of 90 percent of the crime in Albany.
