Suggestion

“The courts could put an end to some of this crime if they would give these criminals real time in prison. The police need to do more stake outs in these crime- ridden areas instead of being traffic police. Give someone a traffic citation for having a tail light out is a waste of time."

Read it all

“If people would take the time and read the whole paper before sending in their rants then they would know there is a want ad in the Moultrie Observer for a police position for Norman Park. Maybe if you would have seen that ad then the rants on Norman Park would have ended as soon as the ad came out."

That's why

“To the ranter who wanted to know why the football team got chartered buses and the band had to ride in regular school buses: I will say this one more time. The thousands of people who pay 8 dollars to attend the football games on Friday nights, do not do so because they want to see the band play. The football team draws the crowed so that gets the charted buses. Nothing against the band, it is just the way it is."

Laughter

“Dwain, you make my family's day. Keep the laughter coming."

Terrorist

“So what if he's a soldier? Why is the media afraid to call the Ft.Hood attack for what it is; another terrorist attack by another crazy fundamentalist Muslim."

Food stamps

“How does a couple with four horses, three dogs, four show pigs, two jet skis, several four wheelers, a John Deere gator and an F250 qualify for food stamps? I think something is wrong with this picture.Please post how to turn in food stamp fraud."

Pet laws

“Why is it that there is such a city law that you can only have 2 pets per household but yet no one knows about it until the Humane Society comes knocking on your door? The Humane Society does nothing but speak about how they need donations and need people to adopt the pets because they have a full house."

Health bill

“A health care bill that is 2,000 pages long? Now tell me we don’t need to clean house in Washington ... I’m talking both parties."

God help us

“I have enough trouble just reading my insurance policy and my phone bill. I can’t imagine a 2,000-page health care bill. Obviously such a lengthy document is designed to frustrate anyone trying to read it. My gosh, the Bible isn’t that long. God help us!"

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.

The sky is falling! The sky is falling!
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.”

Honor sacrifices
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.
