Explain please: “Let me get this straight. We’re going to be paying two police chiefs for two years? Would city council please explain this logic, or lack thereof?
Curious
“I’m curious as to why there was no discussion in open city council meetings for a change in police management.
No tax holiday
“Hope you aren’t expecting a back-to-school tax holiday this year. Our Legislature didn’t approve one. But they did find the time to approve a tax break for owners of giant luxury yachts in need of repair on the final day of the 2017 General Assembly. Wonder how our own Rep. Sam Watson voted?
Observation
“I drove through downtown Moultrie Saturday afternoon and it looked abandoned.
There may have been 20-25 cars parked around the courthouse square. Compared to neighboring towns, it’s pretty sad. Growing up in Moultrie, downtown was the place to be on Saturdays. It was difficult to find a place to park.
Collusion
“Before Trump took office had anyone ever used or even heard the word ‘collusion’?
Priorities
“Seriously? We are building ‘pocket parks instead of paving the roads around the city.
Itching for a fight
“It appears North Korea is itching for a fight. That tiny little man keeps beating his chest and telling us that he can reach the U.S. with his missiles. He routinely fires one off as a show. It’s about time we intercepted one to show him that we will not be intimidated.
The ghosts
“Enjoyed Mr. Walden’s column about ghosts. I had never considered the Biblical implication but it was certainly something to think about. Now I know the commentary had it’s light side which I appreciate. And like Mr. Walden, I’ve never had a ‘ghost’ experience. Also, I’ve never heard of a haunted doublewide. I guess ghosts, if they are real, require a certain ambiance.
Reality show
“You have to wonder why Trump wants to fire the special prosecutor. He is approaching his role as president like he did in that silly television show he had. In fact, it appears we mostly have a reality show going on in the White House. Each week we bet on who will be the next to be fired.
