Sound Off for December 16, 2017

Gratitude

Thank you Alabama!

Border security

We need to block all Chattahoochee River bridge crossings to stop all Alabama Democrats from slipping into Georgia after their senator election.

Deeply moving

Just go ahead and award photographer Mike Haskey with best photo of the year. That picture of little Mikaela Ellis and Scott Ressmeyer touched my heart. Merry Christmas to all.

Save, don’t spend

Please do not ask the taxpayers of Columbus for another SPLOST or LOST for a new Government Center. The need is for new management.

Won’t happen

Jared Kushner has about as much chance of effecting peace in the Middle East as the much-vaunted snowball in hell.

No guidelines

Mike Huckabee told Roy Moore to "exit with class." Hard to do that when you don’t know what it means. He could call Hillary, but she didn't know either.

Sucker politics

The Republican tax bill is predicated on the assumption that 90% of all Americans are stupid as hell. The American mind continues to deteriorate.

Dead end

Obama divided us by race. Now the Schumer Democrats are dividing us by gender. The USA is finished if we continue down this road.
