Sound Off for Dec. 23

Obama is better

Obama has more class, more intelligence and more going for us in his fingernail trimmings than all the GOP together.

Below the bottom

Trump being the top choice of Republicans shows just how low the party is now. And I thought Sarah Palin was the bottom.

Need to know

After reading this article I am hoping that not only changing the standards for learning coin denominations are in place, but standards for telling time on an actual clock are included. When someone graduates they should know what "quarter to seven" means. Sad but true, I heard about someone who did not know what that meant.

Out of our hands

Yes, like everyone supporting some seemingly noble cause, global warming alarmists can also find "facts" to suit their needs. The truth is much different. The truth is that no matter how much he tries man cannot control the weather. That has, and remains, in the hands of a higher power. 'Nuff said.

Who will pay?

Alabama picked up the majority of the cost for Donald Trump's visit. Let's not allow this to happen in Biloxi. Let Trump raise campaign money, or, use some of his billions to finance his own campaign. It's not the responsibility of the taxpayers to do it. Guess it's all right for him to use the system, or, is that the taxpaying people? Even the ones who would never vote for him.

Us first

At this time the U.S. should not take in any more refugees from any country until one problem in the U.S. is taken care of first. The homeless in the U.S. Refugees get clothes, food, a place to live and welfare money. At any given time in the U.S. there are around 1 million homeless.

These American people do not get clothes, food, a place to live and welfare money. No refugee should be allowed to enter the U.S. until all our homeless people are given the same rights as a refugee. This means all our homeless Americans need to receive clothes, food, a place to live and be given welfare money.
