Readers' Voice: Feb. 20, 2013
I get the feeling that our Republican lawmakers in Congress don't care how bad the sequester is for America as long as it makes Democrats look bad. The really sad part is that voters will elect the same bunch of bozos again.
The pawnshops only add to the drug problem. Credit cards are stolen (usually from family), gift cards are purchased and cashed at area pawn shops. No merchandise to track, and fast money for drug users.
Why would any WVU fan truly want to see this team in the NCAA tourney? This year's team should be like the "old soldier" and "just fade away."
Why watch sitcoms when we can read the Gazette? A man with a string of misdemeanors, driving erratically, without a license, fleeing arrest, now sues the State Police who stopped him? Nobody could make that up!
This is for all the so-called Christians out there that are going to support the Susan G. Komen race day coming up and remind you that they support Planned Parenthood, which supports abortion.
I hope everybody's happy. Our new attorney general, Morrisey, is bringing in a lawyer from D.C. and paying over $130,000 a year to do nothing. Way to go, West Virginia. You did it once again.
The price of gas on Feb. 17 is $3.75 in Pittsburgh, $3.99 at the Weston exit and $3.65 at the Burnsville exit. What is wrong with this picture?
Jeff Kessler and those politicians want to raise the taxes on gas again, huh? Here's a suggestion. Why don't all you politicians take a cut in pay?
Watch "Tomorrow's World" on WGN on Sunday mornings and pray that the new pope doesn't make everything break loose.
Yeah, whoever put in the Readers' Voice statement about the 81st Legislature -- "they look like a bunch of car salesmen" -- should not insult the car salesmen.
If we would outlaw lobbyists and also large contributions to candidates, especially from corporations, we may have a chance at a real democracy. Wouldn't that be awesome to have actual democracy in the U.S.? Because we sure don't have it now.
Boy, that Kessler's wanting to raise taxes on everything, isn't he? First it was 50 cents a pack on cigarettes and then 2 cents on a bottle of beer, and now he's wanting to raise taxes on gas. I think it's about time to get rid of him.
The liberal Gazette editors need to get out of their office more. I live in Madison, and this week three times when my wife and I went to Kroger, we met people in the parking lot wanting to sell us their food stamp card for cash so they could buy cigarettes.

You know, I just wanted to call again and remind everybody in the state of West Virginia that reads this paper that this president we got is the worst thing that ever happened to the United States of America, and they're going to find that out pretty soon.
Immigration reform will be performed by the party that kisses the most butt just to get a vote to stay in their do-nothing job for 30 years.
I want to thank Charles Blair and his girlfriend for saving the lives of my two dogs for their kindness by picking them up as they were wandering the streets.
The problem with today's teachers is that they don't consider themselves professional. Look how they dress. You see them wearing shorts. You see them wearing tank tops. You don't see them wearing ties and jackets. If they want to paid like professionals, they should act and dress like professionals.
Speaking as a lifelong liberal Democrat and an educator, I really do not believe in President Obama's early-childhood education for everyone. If you're going to breed them, you should take care of them.
The children in my area who have mothers who stay home with them full time are the least prepared in the school system that I work with. It is sad.
It's a shame when you run a business from your home and you rely on your computer that Frontier Communications cannot come fix a problem for six days. Suddenlink, here I come.
To those gun-toters comparing President Obama to Hitler taking their guns, he won't have to take your guns to harm you. You are doing it yourself. We have proven as a society that we are not responsible enough to take care of our own guns without harming other people.
I think THF Realty should be sued for the poor design of the Southridge shopping centers. The executive staff of THF Realty should be the ones directing traffic and not the South Charleston police. That way they can see the nightmare they've created.
While watching "Killing Lincoln," I couldn't help but notice how similar to today's tea party John Wilkes Booth and his co-conspirators were in their insane efforts to shut down our government.
Read Readers' Voice and I don't believe the things people say about guns. Japan never came to America because of the NRA. If German people had their guns, they could have stopped Hitler. For one thing, the NRA is a fat bunch of beer drinkers with a low IQ, and they would be against trained armies.
Deborah Linz is at WKEF in Dayton, Ohio. Your iPhones and computers seem to be useless to you. Took me about a minute to find where she went on my 'puter.
