If you keep on doing what you’ve always done, you’ll keep on getting what you’ve always got.

All I want for Christmas is for people to put down their stupid cell phones long enough when they’re driving not to kill themselves or someone else. Don’t ruin someone’s life forever because you can’t quit talking for the 10 or 15 minutes it takes to drive to practically any place in Albany.

Wow! Strive2Thrive has been fighting poverty for 40 years and Albany is still worse in poverty than we were 40 years ago. Who has been getting the benefits from all this work?

How can Lee County have a Christmas parade without throwing candy to the kids? This year they were really upset. Their homecoming was littered with candy. Save it for the kids at Christmas parade!

Jesus is not an eternal blessing machine! Read John 16:33.

Four of the Dougherty County commissioners should be investigated for racist collusion activities. Watch them closely for how they vote for a new county administrator.

Carlton, light the Bat Signal! We need to deploy President Carter to the Middle East to fix this problem King Trump has created.

You people squealing about sexual allegations about Trump kept your lips sealed during slick Willie’s 40 years of escapades and never a word about pictures and videos of “Uncle” Joe Biden grabbing every decent-looking female within arm’s length and practically sticking his tongue in their ear.

Regarding food stamps, I saw a lady using food stamps with her shopping cart filled with 10 bottles soft drinks, eight bags of potato chips, three gallons ice cream, three cakes, several bags of cookies. No wonder she weighed 300 pounds. This is food stamps abuse and should be illegal.

Squawker use your head. The reason the Republicans don’t believe the accusers against Trump and Moore is because the accusers waited several years and right before their election run to come forward. Very, very suspicious. The Democrats were already in office.

The SEC is such a weak conference that only 10 of the 14 teams had winning records, and only five teams made the top 25.

Pedophiles always vote liberal Democrat, squawker. I’ll give you examples — Roman Polanski, John Phillips. And another, Hugh Hefner, in the 1960s had a teenage playmate.

Just because someone can’t afford attorney, why should they be made an example of while those who can afford an attorney keep getting a free pass? What’s just and fair about that? The law is crooked.

I noticed in the paper where Albany had been poverty stricken for the past 40 years. Well, if they get a program where they pass out birth control, maybe it would stop some of it in the next 40 years.

Talking about all these street improvements and resurfacing, they need to do right-turn lanes on Westover and Gillionville and at Albany State’s west campus. It backs traffic up at the busiest hours of the day because they can’t turn.

For all you warmists concerned about the unseasonable weather, the Doppler currently shows ice in Mexico, considerably further south than we are. And never mind that Albany is official subtropical anyway.

Attention home delivery customers:
