I see where the Constitution will be read aloud as the U.S. House of Representatives convenes. That will fall on deaf ears.

Memo to Grover Norquist: The president is not the one "spending like crazy" -- Congress authorizes all expenditures. Please direct your complaints to the proper section of government.

I had absolutely no intention of watching "Buckwild" until Sen. Manchin began running his mouth about it. I watched the first two and now I don't plan to miss an episode.

No matter what income you earn, as Obama and Biden said, taxes are about being fair. Remember, they themselves said everyone should pay their fair share and that should include everyone. If you stick your hand out and get a check, then you should have to pay the same percentage of taxes that I have to pay to take care of you.

I hope the attorney general enforces the federal laws about patients' health-care rights.

It was nice of them to cut the cost of the inaugural down to only $400,000. I could live on that for 10 years.

How can you be a conservative anti-abortionist but also be pro-gun? That is hard for me to believe.

We need to balance the budget in one year, not 10 years, and Obama needs to park his plane.

Obama handing the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt 20 high-tech fighter jets is absurd and outrageous. The stage is daily being set for the invasion of Israel. Millions of lives will be lost and Israel will still stand -- always.

Here is a horrible example of absolute fascism, totalitarianism and government agency twisting the words "cleaning house" to be some kind of threat. The police force conspired. It is outrageous. I'm ashamed of the city.

Rex Ryan was so determined not to play Tebow that a losing season is too good for him. He should be fired.

It is a shame that the National Rifle Association is so full of cowards they need an assault rifle to protect their homes.

The fronts of any type of greeting cards, not just Christmas cards, can be sent to St. Jude's Ranch for Children, Recycled Card Program, 100 St. Jude's St., Boulder City, NV 89006-0100. Please don't send cards with any writing on the back. The post office box address is just for monetary donations. Thank you.

Thanks to Joe Manchin and Jon Huntsman for heading a committee to try to get the problems we face solved. It is called No Labels.

It is disconcerting to read an obituary sprinkled with parentheses.

As a former Marine and a disabled veteran, I have never been as embarrassed and humiliated as when I saw no Marines in the governor's inaugural.

Is it really so hard to get the television guide correct? If you all need help, I'll help you with it.

In response to the article about state employees staying home on inauguration day, before people start complaining I want to point out that culture and history employees were at work and the building was open through the day.

Whose responsibility is it to have the streetlights in Charleston working? They are out all over the city, especially on MacCorkle Avenue, and it is very dangerous at night.

Now that Rockefeller has announced he is not running again, that means Shelley Moore Capito will be the next U.S. senator from West Virginia. So, we'd better get used to saying Sen. Capito.

Talk about not having your priorities in order. The caller complained about the raise for the water company but they will spend $120 a month on cable television. The electric company got four raises in three years, yet this little creep didn't say a thing about that. Go ahead and cash your welfare check and get that cable.

I don't believe in raising the debt ceiling without spending cuts. Obama says he will not compromise. During his campaign he said he would compromise. What a liar and a cheat.

It is time that the city of Charleston repeals the user fee. It is an unfair burden on working people.

I see the word "scab" printed in your paper a lot, but I don't see the new acronym "scum" printed that much. It stands for slovenly, counterproductive union members. Why can't we have equal time?
