Sound Off for December 12, 2017

Overload

"Premature detonation" seems to be a widespread problem among ISIS goons. Makes me wonder if that's a mental problem or physical.

Ignore it

Dust Nix's Sunday sermon is slanted. It seems he agrees with the denizens of the DC swamp; guilty until proven innocent. Use your mind and the internet. Do some research and vote for your future.

Now it matters

Some of the same people who do not want voters to show IDs and want illegal aliens to vote suddenly scream how important the integrity of every single vote is when their favored candidate loses.

Party line

President Trump does not need Justice Moore in the Senate to hold his majority; but he has to put forth a token effort to keep the faithful happy. It’s just politics, folks — vote your conscience and priorities.

Guess who pays ...

Settlements in sexual harassment and misconduct lawsuits against House and Senate members are paid by taxpayers because they are classified as “business expenses.” The average settlement is $54,000. Unbelievable!

Enough already

I’m voting for Doug Jones, but if I see one more of his commercials I’m going to throw up.

Wrong party

If Doug Jones supports the Second Amendment, the military and Christian values then why is he running as a Democrat?
