Not a Democratic character trait
The contributor who put in that the GOP was wasting money needs an education. The money that was spent when the GOP was in office was the stuff agreed upon by true bipartisan votes. Bipartisan means Democrats and Republicans agreed to spend the money. Emotion over rational thinking, that’s the way the Democrats roll. The Biden-Pelosi $3.5 trillion has been investigated to cost $5 trillion because they do math like they do in California, where 2 + 2 can equal anything. Some of that infrastructure money will be going to pay for Joe Biden’s hair plugs. It’s listed under fairy dust. Democrats like throwing away trillions like it was a bipartisan billion. Self-awareness is not a Democratic character trait. As a matter of fact, character is not a Democratic trait.
We didn’t start it
For the 10th time, will people quit writing in that we had no business being in Afghanistan, that we started a war there. These people must have been born way after 2001 and the attack on the twin towers in New York. Do they not realize that is the country where the Taliban originated from, came here and stole jumbo jets and plowed them into buildings. We had every right to be in Afghanistan. Afghanistan started this war. Granted, we should have left after they got bin Laden, but we didn’t. But quit saying that we just went over there and started a war. Educate your people.
Bring back Cal

Find something else
I want to agree with “Boring.” I’m so tired of Britney Spears. I am tired of former presidents who can’t keep their pants up. I’m tired of Monica Lewinsky. Can’t you guys find something else, or is this just for bad news that you have to drag them back out again?
Explain what’s going on
Somebody should explain to Mr. Joe Manchin over there in West Virginia what is going on. He doesn’t seem to understand reality.
Have you lost your mind?
To the contributor who had the “Thank God” entry: Have you lost your mind? It says can you imagine if Trump were in office? No we can’t, because he’s not in office. It’s the straw man routine that President Obama always employs. It’s something you can’t measure. What would have happened with Trump? Well, he’s not. So you can’t make up the stuff. It’s always imagine, or if, or but, and it’s always blaming everybody else. Democrats always use straw man arguments. They put a suit up and stick straw in it, and use that for an argument rather than having rational debate. How about the 11,000 Keystone Pipeline workers that were kicked out of their jobs when Biden decided to go all solar energy and wind power. Yeah, it’s going to serve us well in the future up here in Chicago when we all freeze to death.

Crazy
This is in regard to “Thank God for Biden” because Bone Spurs would have this country just in a big mess. Are you kidding me? What planet do you live in? Here’s what Biden did the first day in office: He shut down the XL pipeline. That is why we’re paying almost double for gasoline. Are you out of your mind? Look at your borders. You think this is a wonderful job? You better get it together. I can’t believe the people that write into this paper. Crazy.
