So, squawker, are you saying that because Al Franken is a comedian he is exempt from being charged with a sexual misconduct violation?

Strangely, I haven’t heard anything from Georgia Tech fans in 10 years. Then again, there is not much a fan can say about a mediocre team.

How many took a knee or anything else this weekend to protest the three public safety officers killed in the line of duty last week?

As a mature senior female, I always said that sex would destroy our world, either by overpopulation or disease. Now there is another — destroying lives by verbal accusation. These words, once uttered, make men, white men in particular, guilty. If a female claims it, it has to be true.

In the Alabama senatorial race, voters will be required to choose a candidate between the lesser of two weevils.

You’re right. Those folks have a right to protest, but so do those of us that take offense to their protest. Our best protest is to remove our dollars from their profits.

Good work, Albany, Dougherty commissions. Finnicum Motors found someone who appreciates them. We also never got the Captain D’s on our side of town, thanks to our fabulous City Commission.

After reading Carlton’s article, I believe the correct name of the search agent for the Dougherty County administrator should be Carl Vinson Institute of Corrupt Government for trying to circumvent the law to keep the public in dark about the top candidates.

As Pogo would say, “We have met the enemy. The enemy is us.”

Squawker, we know your purpose. You define or judge Christians 10 or more times a week. It’s a dangerous thing to do.

I’d rather watch reruns of “The View” than NFL football.

Trump is comfortable that his sheep won’t look hard at his tax plan, which will benefit him and his buddies.

I’ll tell you what’s wrong with America. I went shopping to buy what I could afford for my Thanksgiving dinner. As I checked out, there was a woman ahead of me with six children and pregnant again. She paid for all her groceries with two Peach Cards.

Why do I find it not surprising that Sanford Bishop didn’t vote for the tax bill? He never votes for anything the Republicans want. He won’t cross the party line.

Next election, you Demmyrats might consider that Sanford Bishop voted against the bill that might lower your taxes.

It seems we may need to elect an entirely new County Commission. If they’re keeping secrets and they can get away with it, this is unreal.

I can’t believe how much time the “Today Show” gave to that murderer Charles Manson Monday morning. Absurd.

I wonder if David Cassidy’s going to get as much TV coverage as Charles Manson? Oops, David Cassidy didn’t kill anybody.

The NFL has every right to take a knee if they want to. However, those who disagree with them have every right to boycott the NFL and to speak out against them.

I really wish you people would come up with your own original squawks. Stop copying other people’s squawks.

President Trump is right. He should’ve left those basketball players in jail.
