About the property tax issue, none of our representa­tives seem to care. Let’s all start calling and let them know we haven’t forgotten about House Bill 76. These people are millionair­es and only care about themselves. Mr. Hennessey, he’s all for property tax. I know he doesn’t care. Get rid of these people and get somebody in who cares. A Senior

I would like to recommend a book I just finished to all of you who can read and comprehend the truth. It’s “The Big Lie” exposing the Nazi roots of the American left by Dinesh D’Souza. He pulls back the covers and exposes the Democrat Party’s ties to Antifa and BLM and their history with slavery, the KKK, Jim Crow and segregatio­n. To all of you who can read and understand the truth I commend this book to save our republic. I dare you to read it. Tea Party

If you look at all the programs that Trump is trying to get rid of, it’s easy to see his motivation. He’s jealous of all the progress President Obama made for the good of this country. He can’t get anything done himself because it’s all detrimenta­l to the country and Congress and the judges are stopping him. The only thing he can do is act like a spoiled brat who is not getting his way.

For all the ones that are doing rallies and protests to keep illegal “Dreamers” in our country, I think the government should deport those protesters and those ones in the rallies also. If they feel that we should be a free babysitter, get them out of our country also. We will start eliminatin­g a lot of the problems and a lot of the headaches that this country allows too much.

Another non-scientist being considered for an important position, this time for NASA. Somebody down there doesn’t have his head on straight.

When I was a boy we used to watch the “Our Gang” comedy where they had of all things a boy named Buckwheat. I guess we can’t show the “Our Gang” comedy shows anymore anywhere because after all that’s stereotypi­ng. Yet they were all friends weren’t they? This nonsense is just sickening beyond all belief, and you can all think about it.

I wish the landscaper­s when they mow the grass they would get off the mower and pick up the trash instead of running over it, cutting it up and making a bigger mess for me to pick up.

It’s stupid for these fast food workers to be wanting to form a union. After they pay their dues filling the union leader’s pockets and pay for the increase in prices for the products, they will not be any further ahead. Fast foods are moving toward using kiosks eliminatin­g their jobs. It would behoove them to further their education in order to get a better paying job.

Joseph Smith did not start the Jehovah’s Witnesses. He started the Mormons. And then the Mormons divided, some went with Joseph Smith and some went with Brigham Young.

Does anybody have the phone numbers of our state representa­tives? If so could you please let us know so we can get on this House Bill 76 and let them know just how we feel.

I was just wondering if anybody had any idea on when Grosstown Road bridge will be completed. I will say they’re working down there diligently but it’s just such an inconvenie­nce.

I was wondering if anyone knew what you could do for these darn spotted lantern-flies? They’re horrible, they are all over the outside of our house and I just keep killing them but I was wondering if there was anything that could be done. Just curious.

This is a shout-out to the singer Madonna. She is leaving the U.S. and going to Portugal. She said she’s going to be more creative and inspired living there. Hopefully she can take her other liberal friends like Whoopi Goldberg, Barbra Streisand, Amy Schumer and numerous others with her because they said they would leave after Trump won the election. She’s carrying out her threat so good for her but maybe she can convince some of the other ones to go too. Al

I would like to know what we’re supposed to do in Pennsylvan­ia. They’re asking for donations for Houston but I’m asking to slow this gas price down. It’s ridiculous how much the price is going up in the last week.

The other day a friend and I were reminiscin­g about days gone by. He spoke of all the people he’d lost along the way. I told him his career as a tour guide may not have been the best career choice.
