The Rant

Left right, left right. Great TFP article on former Tennessee governors and political polarization. Certainly, two major parties prefer “right and wrong” instead of left and right.

‘Bigness’ business. Riverfront Nights is a keen, family addition to Chattanooga. But please quit with crowd numbers — 12,000, 24,000, infinity? Leave exaggeration to politicians and fishermen.

Trump: “Presidential Medal of Freedom is a much better award than the Medal of Honor.” Sen. Hagerty, how is media taking it out of context?

“Hop on the bus … You don’t need to discuss much …” Hopefully, county mayor brings CARTA into reality. Or finds legitimate multi-modal leadership.

So our electeds have chosen to continue the Trump boot-licking rather than stick up for our veterans … sad on many levels.

Civic pride on the slide. Median I-24 at Ridge Cut — trash, brush and auto part fragments. Looks like garbage dump and junkyard.

Poor Sen. Hagerty. Twisted himself into a pretzel defending Trump’s disgraceful remarks about Medal Of Honor recipients. Then he insults us by blaming the media!

To the scammer tormenting lost pet owners, may every tooth in your head fall out except one, and may that one give you a toothache.

Jobs report vastly understated by the government. Hmmm. Wonder why? Election year rhetoric from current administration. Rhetoric, another word for lying.

Once again, Ann Coulter and her ilk have demonstrated how low they can go by mocking young Gus Walz, who just loves his daddy.

Ann Coulter engages her mouth before taking a minute to consider her words. Disgusting. What is wrong with her? Shameful.

I am voting for Gus’s dad (Harris—Walz).

The Dems want you to forget the last four years, as if Kamala was not in office. Why is that? None too proud, I suspect.

The bottom line is the GOP is where it is today because it still can’t accept an African American being elected president 16 years ago.

I think it is so apropos that the Democrats are meeting in Chicago, a city that thrives on chaos, hosting a political party that does likewise!

No to liberal policies! I prefer paying higher taxes, so millionaires don’t have to. I want the government in my doctor’s exam room and medicine. Really?

In Biden’s last speech at the DNC, he mentioned the Charlottesville lie, the suckers and losers lie, the bloodbath lie, the dictator lie. Way to go out with class, Joe.

Remember how excited you were to make $15 an hour until it doubled the price of your Big Mac? What do you think will happen with Trump tariffs? There is no free lunch.

Kamala targets the middle class, which is squeezed and smaller than ever. What about bottom class? And upper class? Her ads and policies lacking.

Senior citizen once voted for Nixon says 1) Trump worst-ever politician and 2) God probably leans Democratic.

Stop me if you’ve heard this joke before: “I’m gonna lower your taxes and increase your benefits.” “God bless America.” “Whee, vote for me.”

Israel cannot pretend to have the moral high ground, killing 18 members of the same innocent family plus thousands of women and children! Stop genocide now.
