Squawker, if professional sports teams keep fizzling out, then my guess is most of the folks in Albany have no interest. The way this works is; you spend your entertainment money on what you like and the rest of us do the same.

Those Carrier jobs Trump saved last year are on their way to Mexico in July and December this year. Trump made a great deal.

The Albany High School Building was in immaculate condition during Saturday’s walk through, better than my 45 years ago. What a tremendous waste of invested asset! Taxpayer’s should hold DCSB accountable for how it is repurposed.

The Democrats $30 million to lose the Georgia 6th District congressional race. This proves beyond doubt that the modern Democrat Party is the single most effective tool for the destruction of wealth in the history of our country.

Reiner, you are so disconnected. Poor little rich kid with a silver spoon in his mouth. In your case, it’d probably have to be a ladle for your big mouth.

Attention, city officials, on this trash pickup in the alleyways, we need a supervisor to follow these trucks around. They sit there and run for 30 minutes talking on the phone in the cab, burning up the gas and wearing the equipment out.

Hotty totty, great article, Mac Gordon.

Deplorable turning point; Can’t you see what I’m saying?

People who get caught doing hardcore drugs need to get sent to an old-time chain gang. These cells are too soft for them.

For you Republicans interested in facts, the Republican health care plan is a disaster for the majority of Americans. Or are you just going to look away like you have for the past six months?

Political hate speech was started by the Democrats back in the 1960s. If you weren’t around then, you wouldn’t know.

Approximately 30 percent of the people of Albany are like small children, you have to house them, feed them, medicate them, doctor them, keep them out of trouble and punish them when they do wrong. They don’t act like grownups.

Taxpayers, it is crystal clear your taxes can only be used for governmental purposes. Notwithstanding, your City Commission is giving $100,000 a year to the Civil Rights institute. In an attempt to circumvent the law, the city funnels this money through ADICA, which is paramount to an act of the city.

The reason so many people are dying from opiate overdoses is because the government is wasting its time and money going after Joe Pot Smoker.

Albany went from a top 100 progressive city down to 7th worst city to live in. This is what happens with Democrats in control.

Friday evening after 7 p.m. I just had a phone call from Albany Utilities. Their system drafted payments twice. Now salary overtime for employees to telephone telling they will cover any overdraft fees, etc. I see why they need to raise fees.

I have sent four emails and phoned Sanford Bishop’s office twice about two important issues facing his constituents. He has not responded to any of my concerns. It must not be an election year for him. I will remember come election year.
