How long before Trump calls for the elimination of the checks and balance clause in the Constitution?
Giving government control to feed you can also be used to starve you. Politicians advocating socialist-forced universal health care, paid college tuition, and gun confiscation may sound good at first, but these can also be used against you later on.
Thank you to the Dougherty County Commission for approving the employee merit raises. They are very much appreciated.
Can someone give me the name of a good bank in East Albany since Ameris Bank has abandoned us? I hope other customers will follow suit.
Aside from Squawking, just what have you personally done to make Albany a better place?
Just when is Jethro’s Coffee supposed to open downtown? I met and talked with some really nice people there and was under the impression things were moving forward. It would be nice to have a place like Jethro’s downtown.
It is recorded on video: Stacey Abrams believes there is no difference between documented and undocumented. Hordes of illegal immigrants are coming to cross our borders illegally. Some wave flags of their home country.
I wish our weather lady would call our city Albany rather than the good life city.
All of the places that you mentioned may indeed succumb to rising water. I still do not understand how you know that it is a problem caused by man. There was a time when the oceans reached Albany, Georgia, and if you need proof go to the sand dunes in east Albany. I do not know civilization existed or what they did to cause them to recede, but if you know please enlighten.
Wonder if Brian Kemp used that same gun that he pointed at that kid in his commercial to shoot quail during the Georgia Quail Hunt here in Albany?
Who did put the ram in the ram-a-lama-ding-dong?
Some Republicans are racists and some Democrats are racists. Don’t put all people you don’t know into one horrible ignorant despicable racist group.
Chief Presley, that is pretty unprofessional to have 10 officers standing around with hands in pockets, laughing and being idle at the scene of a shooting. Could they not be patrolling and deterring crime elsewhere? Imagine 10 officers spread out in a community residential streets protecting us. Great job by the media showing the lack of law enforcement supervision.
Where was Roger Marietta during the Mayor’s Prayer Breakfast? I figured he’d be at anything that had the word “mayor” in it.
So USA Today states that Albany is the 27th-worst city to live in . Let’s see how the Albany City Commission and Chamber of Commerce put a spin on this.
Stacey Abrams wore inappropriate clothing at the State of the Union address. She should have gone dressed with diapers and a pacifier. She is an embarrassment to the state of Georgia.
Our coasts are sinking because of overpopulation and development, not warming. California coasts are imperiled because of the same and fault lines
