MIGHT AS WELL throw a "Going Out Party" for the GOP. They are going, going ... gone!

ONLY $1 MILLION voted for Chickamauga Lock construction! The amount set aside for bicycle paths in four communities around the country -- $90 million! Incredible!

DO REPUBLICANS even admit there are problems in the health care system? Or, is everything fine and dandy, because lobbyists told them that it is?

WANT TO SLOW down the postage cost increases? Eliminate the special rates for non-profits, catalogs, magazines and politicians! Charge them what it costs me.

THE HEADLINE says insurance companies only make two percent profit. Profit is what is left after expenses. Expenses include billions in executive compensation. Poor insurance companies!

NOW I SEE why employees at Erlanger are always cautioned about their overtime. Management needs larger bonuses.

SCULPTURES OF four fat, naked women exposing themselves on the Market Street Bridge doesn't make sense to me. May be "classical," but sure isn't classy.

SIGNAL MOUNTAIN Road morning commuters: It is rude and dangerous to break line at Highway 27 entrance ramp. Go to the back of the line!
