Sound Off for December 19, 2017

Marital accord

It is great when you put the crossword puzzles in a separate section from the sports pages. That keeps husbands and wives happy!

Identity deck

Our Mayor thinks the Doug Jones win will open the door for more Democrats to get elected in the South. And of course she used the race card to explain how that would happen. Good job, Mayor.

Reality bias

It puzzles me why someone refers to this paper as "liberal" for reporting the news. Perhaps fake news would be considered more conservative and appropriate.

I’d abuse it

ESPN's president is resigning due to a substance abuse problem. If I had his income, I'd probably have a substance abuse problem as well. The substance would be money.

Odd alignment

Washington is beginning to look like Trump (a draft dodger), Putin and Russia vs. Mueller (a Purple Heart-decorated Marine), America and American freedoms. Strange where we now find ourselves.

Misinterpretation

While liberals are celebrating their Alabama victory they should know that the voters were voting against Moore, not GOP principles. As Mark Twain said, "The reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated."

On balance ...

I would like to thank President Trump for the personal and sincere robo-call. But I felt that Charles Barkley was the voice of reason.

Term limited

If President Trump continues to eat steak, apple pie and ice cream, and drink a dozen Diet Cokes every day, he won’t have to worry about impeachment.
