The renaming of the West Side Elementary School honored an educator from that area, Mary Snow. Now let's give another former educator who lived and taught and coached on the West Side and East End his due. The new school in Edgewood should be Carl "Doc" Young Elementary.

All you people who voted for Obama are getting just what you deserve. Eight years for nothing. He can't do anything but travel around making speeches and burn up gas on Air Force One. What a joke.

It really doesn't matter why Dorner was fired. It's obvious that he did not have the discipline to be a police officer. He did not need to be in a police uniform.

Joe Manchin is no Robert Byrd. I've called Robert Byrd several times in the past and I always got a response from Senator Byrd's office concerning the issue that I called about. I called Joe Manchin's office several times and haven't got as much as a phone call or any kind of response back.

It's time for the regular DOH employees to get a raise without being bundled up with teachers and higher up DOH employees.

It's sad that the bridge is falling in for the woman in Sand Creek in Boone County, but the real story is that no one owes her a bridge. There are no free rides in life for many people.
