It is so nice to turn on the "Today" show in the morning and not see or hear that whiny Ann Curry anymore. I couldn't stand her when she first started there on the show in 1997 and I've rarely watched it since. Thank you, NBC, for saving the "Today" show.
Why are the schools providing free breakfast and free lunch in some counties when there is a multitude of food stamps out there? Are their parents too lazy to cook for them?
West Virginia is the only state in the United States that regularly allows the power company, the gas gathering lines and the [Division] of Highways to use herbicides to keep their rights of way clear.
Personally, I think Mitt Romney would make an excellent president. After all, if you want a good lawyer, you want to get a crooked one.
Mitt Romney, you are such a patriot. You avoided the Vietnam War. Show us your tax returns. You don't have the nerve.
Apparently the Republicans who voted for the 33rd time to repeal the Affordable Care Act don't understand what happens when a bill becomes a law. Could somebody please send Eric Cantor a copy of "Schoolhouse Rock"?
Romney could clear up a lot by releasing his tax returns. Why won't he do that? What is he hiding?
Rockefeller is right. W.Va. stands to benefit more than other states with Obamacare. Another four years of Obama in the White House, nobody will be working in West Virginia. We'll all be depending on government handouts. That's what Rocky and his buddy wants
People saying the three major networks lean more conservative than liberal don't know the difference between being conservative or liberal.
I just watched Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman on how to end the current depression (he's honest enough to call it that). He says that if the people in Washington would work for the citizens rather than special interests, and if they paid any attention to the lessons of history and professional economists, the solution would be easy.
Does anyone know where I can get a sunroof for an automobile repaired in this area?
It amazes me that West Virginians continue to elect the same old Democrats to office when the Democrats have kept this state at the bottom economically for decades. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and each time expecting a different outcome.
It appears that Romeny can dish it out, but he can't take it, crying about Obama's campaign ads. If he can't take that, he doesn't have the guts to be president.
I can't decide which is worse, the insulting political ads, or the people who actually choose who they will vote for based on the ads.
The neighbors put us through a week of hell with their loud generator during the power outage. Manufacturers should quiet these monsters, and users should at least put them in the back or some place where they do not sound as loud.

Rockefeller has a selective memory. He complains about the GOP not working with the Democrats in Congress. Funny. I don't remember Rocky and his fellow Democrats working with the GOP when Bush was in office.
EPA is the reason for a decline in demand for coal. They browbeat the utility companies to lower emissions. They in turn replaced their coal burning systems with gas-fired systems. If they had not done this, the demand for coal would be up and miners would be working.
The word "derecho" is not found in my 1999 Encarta World English Dictionary. Yes, it's sprinkled in the newspapers the last week since the June 29 storm, so please explain this new word to us.
Thank you, President Obama, for truly caring about the needs of the American people.
Thanks to whoever brought the Dark Star Orchestra to Charleston. It was great fun. Lots of people really enjoyed themselves and it was a nice change.
To the person who wondered where Romney was during the Vietnam War, I ask you, where was Rockefeller and Clinton? Also, do you know that Pelosi and some of the others have bank accounts overseas? Don't cast stones.
Way to go, Joe! Voting with the Republicans, he helped them vote down a bill to help small businesses. Does he really want us to believe that he is helping the people of West Virginia?
I cannot believe there is any serious discussion about extending any of the tax cuts. This is the kind of political pandering that got us a $1 trillion annual budget deficit. How long before our 'something for nothing' mentality brings us to financial ruin? Our future is looking very bleak.
At Ohio Stat some football players traded jerseys for tattoos , the head coach knew about it and did nothing. Ohio State is now on probation and can't play in a bowl game next year. At Penn State a pedophile used the football facilities to molest and rape children, the head coach knew about it and did nothing. Penn State is not on probation and can play in a bowl game next year. What's wrong with this picture?
Its clear the GOP Rep. Capito is willing to do away with your important health care if elected. There is no plan to replace insurance for your family after they take it away. I'll bet their families are covered with the best insurance while they take yours away.
How can the Obama administration claim 80,000 jobs were created in June when the jobs lost in the six prior years have not been replaced? Wouldn't that be filling some of the previous job losses rather than jobs created?
If your daddy is a Charleston attorney, you can do crime without doing the time because Kanawha County prosecutors will work to keep you out of jail.
The supplemental insurance is to cover what Medicare has never covered, not what Medicare no longer covers. Get your facts straight.
Why would West Virginia support the party of the rich? What have they done for you?
This is for the person who wanted to know the origin of the word "derecho." I believe that it is from a Spanish word meaning straight. Hope that helps.
All the banks want everyone to [do] paperless billing and use debit or credit cards instead of a paper check, but when the big storm hit the only way anyone could purchase gas, ice, food or anything in need was with cash or a paper check. No banks open or ATM machines working. So there we all stood holding a debit or credit card that was useless.
