Rant and Rave for 9/5/2010

MOULTRIE — I agree

“I agree, deputies should make more, but at the same time they should enforce the laws they are sworn to uphold. I witnessed two deputies pass cars with no headlights on in a rain storm the other day. If they can't enforce the simplest of traffic laws, how are we to expect them to take care of more serious crimes?

In response

“I urge Mr. Harris to educate himself on current politics, rather than letting someone tell him his politics. If you've done any iota of research on Obama, you'll find he's nothing more than an incompetent man trying to do big boy stuff. Obama has no business being president, he should be a manager of a Burger King instead.

Sickens me

“It absolutely sickens me to go into a convenience store and watch my tax dollars being spent on lottery tickets by people too sorry or lazy to work!

Thank you

“Thank you Mr. Harris for your factual and well-researched response to Mr. Driver's letter. I was getting ready to respond but you covered the bases very well. I hope people will read the facts you wrote and see the real truth about the Republicans.

Actually read it

“I wish people would read the dog ordinance before you speak!! It clearly states (3) three dogs per zone! My dogs are all I have left in this life,so if you are willing to take my life to get the dogs ,please be. advised I will make your journey to. see Jesus come to pass. All my. animals have current shots,are. spayed and well fed. Why aren't you picking up the wealthy peoples dogs who violate the ordinance, if they can have more than three dogs so can I.....

Football

“So now we’re 0-3 in Packer football. How good does hat new turf look now?

Not only one

“Wow, Glad to know I'm not the only one who sees teachers and staff disappear if a coach is needed. Funny how that works, and if they have a spouse fear not, we'll find them a job too. But hey,  even coaches/ trainers are not disappear proof. If a better coach is available, they too will disappear..

What changed?

“Band is supposed to be fun, however, this year seems to be an exception. A lot of students are talking about quitting or have already quit. Is it the band director, new policy or what. The kids didn't change, we need to find out what did.

Packers

“Hey Packers! You guys hang in there. This is a tough region and you scored a lot of points on one of the top teams in the nation. We’re behind you, all the way.

  • Saving the critters

    Dear editor:
    Wildlife rehabilitators, or rehabbers as they are known in the animal community, are very special people. They have acquired the knowledge and experience that is needed to work with injured and orphaned wildlife. Licensed by the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, and if caring for federally protected species, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, a wildlife rehabilitator’s ultimate goal is to take an injured or orphaned animal, get it healthy and return it to its natural habitat.

    Remember back in the early sixties when people were digging bomb shelters in fear of the “Big One” being dropped on us? I recall how an alarm would go off at school, and we would get under our desks. What a joke! Get under our desks when one entire wall was glass!

  • Outpouring of love

    Dear editor:
    What words can be added to so many that have been said in prayer and praise for our Haley?  We have witnessed an outpouring of love and sacrifice for our families, and we truly cannot express our feelings of humility and gratitude.

  • Were we really shocked by the half-time cheap shot?

    There’s an old saying, “Go to bed with dogs, wake up with fleas.”

    Dear editor:
    When the Declaration of Independence was signed, we as a Country, The United States of America, were declaring our Freedom and Liberty.

  • What's at stake here?

    Dear editor
    It looks like one of my worst fears is about to happen. With President Obama’s withdrawal of all American troops from Iraq it appears the democratic government we set up in Iraq is getting ready to come apart.  The Shiites and Sunnis are at each others throats and the Kurds and Turkey are already shooting at each other. Iran seems to be paused to take up the vacuum we will be left and obtain a nuclear weapon. In 2007 the Democrats were clamoring for President Bush to get our troops out of Iraq.

Poll

Should candidates for county positions have to run for a party's nomination?

No. Political parties are meaningless at this level.
Yes. It helps voters know where they stand on issues.
With all the problems the state's facing, this is a non-issue.
