Commissioner Matt Fuller, If Saturday, Dec. 9, was an indication of how you will lead, you will truly be an asset to Albany. Thank you so very much for all the help you provided.

If you’re giving a pet as a Christmas gift, wait till after Christmas. Adjusting to a new home is stressful enough for a dog/cat without adding all the holiday activities going on in the house. And, be sure the person receiving the pet knows about it and is prepared for the new family member.

The national debt is equal to a stack of $100 bills 12,626 miles into outer space, or more than five stacks of $1 bills from the earth to the moon.

Can you tell how a parking space for the city manager warrants an accusation of wasting taxpayers’ dollars? She gets there early in the morning and leaves late at night. Can we find something else to fuss about?

A little history lesson for you, squawker. Reagan did not do anything special to get the Iran hostages released. They were released when Iran decided to shed this political hot potato and they waited when Reagan took office to spite Carter.

When the Trump dossier comes out, a lot of people will be surprised about our president.

It’s time to scratch our deep state government. There’s nothing in it that’s for the people or by the people.

All these women are coming out saying they were sexually harassed. What about the men? I’m sure it happened to them, too.

I don’t know why the Democrats are in such an uproar over the Republican tax plan because it’s going to add to the deficit some. They didn’t say a word when Obama’s administration doubled the national debt.

We don’t watch the NFL anymore because of the traitors and my family does watch any news anymore because you can’t believe anything they are telling us.

Trump ran for president so he could give himself a tax break, and you Republican sheep accommodated him.

Hey, Trump voters, Trump promised a tax cut, but only the rich will get it and you get to pay for it. And guess what? Trump’s going to take your health care away.

The only Russian collusion has been on the Democrat side, and we’re going to nail them to the wall, too.

Probation officers, if a loved one contacts you out of concern for a family member, you should respond in a timely manner. They wouldn’t be calling you if it weren’t important.

Looks like Democrats have a new weapon for getting elected. Accuse their opponents of sexual harassment and hire women to come forward and make accusations without proof.

I am a registered Democrat from the age of 20. I would not vote Democrat even if the local Democratic representative’s life depended on me. I am totally sick of the Democratic lies and false accusations. I will say on thing, they are the best thing going for the Republicans.

It has been posited that “the early bird gets the worm.” The world has become so dog-eat-dog competitive that one best be motivated to be the “early bird” to avoid being “the worm.”
