Some players in the NFL had a hard time reaching the turkey and ham at Thanksgiving. They were on their knees.

Roy Moore’s fondling the 14 year old was not just a private sin. That could have been prosecuted. If you saw this lady interviewed on TV you would not accuse her of making this up or being paid.

This 85-year-old squawker lady believes some women and girls are to be blamed themselves for the assaults because of the way they dress and the way they act around men.

All of these after-the-fact sexual accusations we’re hearing about are evidence women cannot deal with tough issues and make decisions.

The first Victorian Age was driven by prudence and morality. We’re heading into a new Victorian Age driven by feminism.

If that woman had six children and had to use a Peach Card to keep them from starving, then perhaps she shouldn’t have had the children in the first place. Why have children you can’t feed? Oh yeah, welfare check.

I appreciate the squawk from the lady shopping behind a woman with six kids and pregnant paying for grocery with two Peach Cards. That same person probably went out and paid cash for five $20 scratch-off cards.

How do you know she wasn’t buying for someone else? How do you know those were all her children? How dare you goad somebody until you’ve been on food stamps yourself and have gone through the humiliation of doing it. Some people are in need.

Please correct the squawker who said the XL pipeline has spilled 210 gallons of crude oil. It was 210,000 gallons. It’s so hard for Trump supporters to ever see the truth.

I wasn’t going to get into this, but you said if North Korea bombs the U.S., the military should kneel and let the NFL players handle it. I say, the cowardly men like the one who gunned down the people in the Las Vegas and one who gunned down the people in church, let people like that handle it.

What are the Democrats going to do now? They were planning to run Charlie Manson for president in 2020.

What’s the deal with all these boring Thomasville stories on the local news?

Backpackers die in Cambodia after taking pills for food poisoning at the local pharmacist’s. Don’t that make you feel good about your expensive made-in-Asia prescriptions?

All these TV commercials about can’t be turned down for life insurance, I wonder if a person’s terminally ill can they be turned down?

First it was health care. Now, Trump is going to end net neutrality. That will hurt the average person trying to get access to the internet.

Rep. Sanford Bishop votes exactly like John Lewis tells him to vote. Always has, always will.

It’s amazing how times have changed. I was watching an old episode of “All in the Family” and Michael was going to have his appendix removed and it was going to cost $350. Now, they wouldn’t fill out the paperwork, admit you and give you a bed for $350, much less take it out.
