More people are out of work but unemployment is down. The people remaining in the workforce are making less now than four years ago. Economic growth is flat and our international image weak and timid. Our people are divided and distrust outweighs brotherhood.

Parents need to parent their children, not be their friends.

Capt. Herb and Lewis Grizzard are two people who made Atlanta a much easier city in which to live because they made us laugh, even at difficult times.

Beverly Hall didn't murder anyone, but she willfully dumbed down the school district to make herself look good.

Bicyclists will have the same rights as drivers when they license their bikes, pay road taxes and follow the same rules as the rest of us.

Did you see how the ranchers stood up to the federal government this weekend? This is what we ALL need to do. Enough is enough!

Beverly Hall may not have murdered anyone but she sure screwed up lots of people's lives and then had the gall to say she wouldn't admit to anything! At the very least, the judge needs to demand she appear before him within 24 hours so he can see what she looks like for himself.

As a cynic I believe very strongly that politicians are whores and lobbyists are their clients.

Hey bike rider, how much did your license, tag, insurance and tax cost? Ignorance (and arrogance) is bliss.

They use video connections from jails to the court, so why don't they put a video hookup in Beverly Hall's home at trial time?

Glad to see the judge is making the Michael Jackson family pay for $800,000 legal fees in the lawsuit they lost against the concert promoter. Maybe that will be an end to their greed, but probably not.

All of you who believe Beverly Hall hasn't manufactured her illness story to stay out of prison, raise your hand!

For the first time in years, I read "Dear Abby" last week. Every response should have started with the words "Are you that stupid?"

$375,000 for the new Atlanta School Superintendent? Uh, don't take down those toll booths JUST yet…

First Lewis Grizzard. Now Captain Herb. This town will not be the same.

If someone responds "That's a great question," it either means they don't know the answer or they're thinking of a way to put a spin on the answer.

I don't care much about cleanliness of the MARTA stations. They are no worse than elsewhere. An expansion of the rail system, on the other hand, is much needed.

Yeah, but if pollen were gold dust, we'd end up calling 911 because of people "cleaning off" our cars.

A vent with the phrase "pantywaist" is number one? Good job.

Why are people so concerned with term limits? It only takes one term to screw things up!

As a surprise to no one, in the states that accepted the tax money they PAID into and are expanding Medicaid, the Affordable Care Act is working very well. Thanks, Deal, for letting other states use OUR money.
