I thought the dryer shrank my clothes. Turns out it was the refrigerator.
CNN continues to criticize Trump regarding the Texas flood, despite appearing there twice, donating money, handing out box lunches, hugging and shaking hands with victims. Where was Obama during the Louisiana flood? Out playing golf, but CNN said nothing.
To the lady that drives the red Mercedes coupe down Clark Avenue most mornings to work, please use your signals when you change lanes. You confuse a lot of people when you do that. Please be a more considerate driver.
The point the squawker made was Trump did what was expected of him and still got criticized, unlike Obama who got little blowback for not showing his face in Louisiana when they got record flooding.
Trump supporters can’t talk about the issues. They only want to pick a fight.
I never thought I would read a squawker trying to defend Brownie 10 years later.
I don’t have much money and my heart wanted to donate $1,000 to Texas, but my checkbook only allowed me to send a measly $25, but that is probably a measly $25 more than Al Sharpton sent.
You get pregnant and have a child or get somebody pregnant and they have a child, knowing you cannot take care of them, that’s child abuse.
Wonder if Trump handed out the lunches in Houston with enough empathy to satisfy his critics?
To all those who want to praise good ol’ 45 for donating $1 million dollars to flood relief victims in Texas, just remember he is a multi-multi-billionaire. One million dollars to him is the same as $5 to me, which I have already donated.
Gas was $2.28, then it jumped up as high as $2.69. There’s no sense in it jumping up that much in one day’s time.
Merle Haggard has a song named, “Are the Good Times Over for Good?” Well, Merle, unfortunately, they are. This new generation and their parents have destroyed America.
Juan Williams complained Trump had a lack of empathy for hurricane victims, yet it was OK for Obama to show a lack of empathy for Louisiana. Why don’t you have the same standards instead of double standards?
Listen, hillbilly squawker, you don’t know what President Obama or Hillary Clinton donated. Everybody don’t disclose what they donate. You better watch that million dollars Trump says he’s giving to see whether he gives it or not.
There will never be economic development in this area as long as Dougherty County commissioners try to prevent a 60-bed hospital from being built in Lee County.
Nice charade, Pelosi, but Antifa are your people. Everybody knows it.
I have searched every news source I know. I cannot find where the Black Lives Matter group has done anything toward rescue efforts in Houston. I’m sure they have, though. After all, they’re so concerned about the welfare of the country.
It has been reported that movie theater sales are down. Can it be the quality of movies that are being made today, or is the Clinton and Sanders people are too busy rioting and demonstrating to go to a movie.
