All of the sexual harassers in the public sector remain in office while those in the private sector are fired. Go figure.

Will Georgia have enough players out of jail and off suspension to play Oklahoma come New Year’s Day? That is one long month between now and then.

I am a 77-year-old lifetime Democrat. I’m not a fan of President Trump, but I can say he has not been treated fairly by the news media from the primary until now. The news media’s job is to report the news as it is, not take away or add to it. They were very fair to President Obama all eight years, even when he endorsed same-sex marriages. Let’s stop treating the president like we do.

Looks like it’s OK for Congress to be made up of pedophiles, molesters, sexual-assaulters, bullies, liars, money-launderers, adulterers, tax evaders and con artists! I bet there are some drug addicts, too!

Trump won the presidency. Haven’t you crybabies cried long enough? Your eyes must be really red and swollen.

This weekend showed just how weak the SEC really is. You’ve got Georgia and Auburn wannabe teams, but neither can beat the other on a steady basis.

President Trump is a real tweety bird. Ooh, I tawt I taw a puddy tat!

I agree with the squawker who feels the media should stop covering Trump. That way we won’t have to listen to their bias.

Roger Marietta is a pretty good commissioner. I called him about a street light that’s been out since January, got blowed over. City crew came out the next day and looked at it, took the wires up and put them back in the ground. We haven’t had a post there since January. Mr. Marietta, you gonna have to get on them again.

Looks like the Dougherty County Commission has bailed out Rep. Darrel Ealum, paying him $15,000 an acre for that old worn out Radium Springs golf course.

There goes our Dougherty County commissioners again, wasting money expanding a trail nobody uses.

How about Dougherty County paying Darrel Ealum $15,000 for 10 acres on an undevelopable piece of property along the Flint River in Radium Springs? If there were any homes ever built there, they’d have to be put on stilts.

Jesus is my Lord and Savior, that’s a fact. No arguments, please. However, he’s never had my back. I could tell you stories of misfortune that would make your hair curl and then fall out. Hope y’all have a merry Christmas. I really do.

I hope all you people who voted for the SPLOST are paying attention to where the money is going. A river trail in this pothole city?

I don’t know what was wrong with the Albany parade Saturday night. The sound was terrible. It sounded like feedback. It was terrible, the sound was. We just turned the TV and watched something else.

The so-called IQ-64 the squawker was talking about are the low-income and poverty Trump supporters that Democrats have held down for the last 30 years.

Why aren’t all the local high school basketball games played in the Civic Center?
