I'm so tired of people saying Democrats are for the poor. I moved from the South. Why are gas, food, power, and taxes so much higher?
People complaining about eight years of Bush: Don't they realize Obama did more damage in four years than Bush did in eight and they just gave him another fours years at the wheel?
The real reason West Virginia has lost all these football games is not because of the defense or anything else. The whole thing is contrived. It's a way to save money. They think that they can accumulate money for a couple of years by not going to big bowl games. They can save money for when they do start playing football again and to a big bowl.
Can someone tell me where Gayle Manchin taught school and when? Does Sen. Manchin have another Manchin in mind for Dr. Marple's job?
To Texas Tech, Kansas State, TCU, Oklahoma State and Oklahoma. Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you. Hopefully there will be many more thank you's to come. It just doesn't get any better than this.
A committee should be formed to investigate Sen. Manchin and his [appointment] of the five state board members who conspired to have Jorea Marple fired. She is a great educational leader and should never have been treated like she was. Manchin walks over people. He should be investigated.
Who would have thought that West Virginia would have a demagogue running the state? Dino Manchin has Gov. Tomblin under his belt, he has the state Board of Education under his belt. We need to get rid of Sen. Manchin. Impeach him.
Why is it that whenever you call to ask a question at any business, even a hospital, you can never get a real person, you have to go through an answering machine. Do you ever get any return calls? No.

I understand that the budget for the Ambassador to Libya was cut by the Republican Party. I would like an answer from Sen. McCain why that happened. That is the bottom line.
My opinion of the Manchin dynasty has changed. It has gone downhill. There could have been no good reason for dismissing Jorea Marple. She has been a shining example of excellence and helpfulness for our children whose education she has dedicated her life to.
Instead of spending all that money for the tent up there to have parties in, why don't they take that money and spend it on bulletproof vests for the police officers instead of asking the public to donate money for that? After all, the tent is paid for by taxpayers. Why can't they buy the vests out of taxpayers' money?
Quit crying about how Obama is the worst president ever, right-wingers. You got your hat handed to you, you got thumped, routed, stomped, etc. Anyone who has lived in America since 2000 knows who the worst president in our history was.
To show how far Fox News is out of touch with the real world, during a recent show, as they went to break, they played "Free Bird" by Charlie Daniels. Probably because of Daniels' politics. Everyone who has just the basic knowledge of Southern Rock music knows that only one group can play "Free Bird."
As a taxpayer, I think it is wrong that our law enforcement puts their lives on the line for us every day and they are not provided with safety vests to protect their own lives. ... Something is very wrong with this picture. Those citizens who made donations for the purchase of life-saving vests not provided by our government are to be commended.
If the BOE members were dumb enough to think they could get away with their plan to fire the current superintendent and hire another one without a proper search, are they smart enough to be on the BOE? An extensive search was made before Dr. Marple was selected. The field was narrowed down to three and she was the most qualified candidate.
