WANTING TO HELP: We need health care reform badly and we need it now. Yes, I am willing to pay a few more dollars in taxes if it will help others who do not have or can't afford health care. I am not political, nor am I rich. I just want to help as much as I can.

TERM LIMIT: The founding fathers did not establish the term limit for president. The term limit was established by the 22nd Amendment to the Constitution, which was ratified in 1951.

SICK OF POLITICS: All we ever heard from Democrats was how it was Bush's fault. Now that the shoe is on the other foot, here you are defending Obama saying there's no way it could be his fault. I am sick of politics.

IT'S NOT SHRINKAGE: I finally figured out that the dry cleaner wasn't shrinking my clothes as part of some kind of conspiracy. I'm gaining weight.

DEDICATION: The Veterans Clinic dedication was beautiful. The young girl who sang the National Anthem did a wonderful job. She is a great example of a well-mannered child, and someone who gives a great deal of respect to our country's traditions and veterans.

TAPS: I sure hope someone played "Taps" as the old pub was torn down. I know I'll sadly miss it as will many fine folks of Newnan.

CZARS: Fox News reported other presidents including "W" had a few czars who were only consultants. Obama has many who are policy makers.

SCHOOL ZONES: It is unrealistic to expect motorists to drive slowly near schools all the time. If that is the plan, why have the lights? Simpler solution -- have the responsible individuals program the lights just like they reset their clocks?

FORGET IT: Some of you complain about everything the President does or does not do. You say he is a communist, a socialist, anti American. You have blamed everything on him from too much rain to the early cold snap we had. The President isn't going anywhere. Forget about it.

TURN ON THE LIGHTS: What does it take for you people to turn your lights on when it is raining? Running lights are not enough.

COSTLY CORN: About the costly popcorn. I heard theaters make most of their money from concessions and only a small percentage from the admission.

AQUATIC CENTER: Yes the YMCA has an aquatic center, but you have to be a member to use it. The membership fee is a little too high. It would be nice to have a public area for aquatics but in area that is suitable for all and centrally located.
