Sound Off for December 18, 2017

For underdogs

Today’s real superheroes are those who speak out for the voiceless and powerless. The ruling class has hordes of shills on their payroll.

Case study

Your article about the lawsuit against St. Francis Hospital explains why we need health reform. These lawyers are everywhere.

Gospel

Roy Moore is always quoting from the Bible. Hey Roy, the Bible says “the truth will set you free.” Bye, Roy.

Compass points

I know of north, south and east Columbus. What part is considered west?

Swamp dweller

The Ledger-Enquirer used to be a class act as a newspaper. Now it’s far down in the liberal gutter.

Worker pool

Since we are short of bus drivers, maybe David Lewis can lure some from Florida. I’m sure they’ll be better qualified than any employee from the MCSD.

Fiction

The only fake news I see is that the middle class is getting a tax cut.

Back to the future

It’s not rocket science. Tear down the ugly tower and build a replica of the old government center. For the overflow — buy the Ralston.

Showtime

Where’s the popcorn? I like it when I watch the circus going on in Washington.
