Who believes that stuff?" "Diana Reid is not doing a good job. She's just going around with a loud mouth and insulting people. Charles Frasier you need to come back and get your job next election." "I'd like to thank Dr. Franklin Perry, our superintendent, for keeping children and staff safe and warm at home during the winter storm." "If Trump was a democrat would Paul Ryan be making up excuses about him or would he be filing articles of impeachment. I think the latter, maybe its time for Republicans in the House to put the country and the con stitution before their party. It is time to impeach Trump." "What has happened to the sports page of the Couri er. How are the people of Liberty County supposed to keep up with their local sports teams like Bradwell Institute and Liberty County High. Please bring it back." "What another subdivision in Long county? We cannot handle what we have. When will this stupidity end? How are you going to pay for the needed services?" "So the government shut down was because the Re publicans wanted money for the wall? I thought Mexico was supposed to pay for it. Isn't that what Trump said?" "Government shut down: People this is happens when you don't vote. You ended up with a dysfunctional government, with a dysfunc tional president at the helm. 1,000 days until the next presidential election. Get out the vote!" "Army-Navy football: There were people in wheelchairs there. So, yes. Some people were seated. Way to view handicapped people as sub-human."
