Border insecurity

Trump says he's in perfect agreement with "his friend," the president of Mexico, about border security. The Mexican president stated he's "not putting one dime in that fence."

Liberal flip-flop

During the Cold War, Russia was the darling of the Left. Why does the Left now hate Russia? Is it because they outlaw homosexuality? Is it because they're no longer communist? Because they manhandled Obama?

Breaking and entering is not the same as undocumented workers.

Why don’t Mayor Lowe and the councilors just go ahead and turn Phenix City over to Columbus?

The reason Georgia auto insurance rates are so high is the leeches that call themselves personal injury lawyers. The whole lot of them should be disbarred for theft by deception.

Hitting bottom

What's next, a video of Trump driving a NASCAR vehicle, running down MSNBC anchors? Another idea — an NRA video of "The Donald" firing at "fake news" people. This country is dumbed down and dangerous.

Our responsibility

Time to stop lying that global warming does not exist and find ways to slow it down. We have upset the natural order of nature and it’s up to us to fix it.
