I sincerely agree with you, Kate.
Wanda M, You are a bit turned around on the reason why the Falls lost their "excellant rating"! Maybe if kids had a book to take home to do there homework and prepare for tests or quizzes in EVERY class. Instead, many kids have to share books with other kids and cannot take the books out of the classrooms. You are giving governmental/political overtones to a local educational problem. Other than getting more books, there is a grocery list of reasons why the rating is not what it used to be and hasn't been for awhile. No student should be without a book to study but parent involvement is paramount in the education of our children, also.
Betsy, this isn't a city of morons. That's just wrong to even say. Don' damn people who are on government assistance unless you know their true story. The reason is probably legitimate. It's the ones abusing the system that need to be booted.I would support passing a drug tests to receive the check. Assistance should never be a life long endeavor. Just saying...

This city is full of morons. I'm literally surrounded by people living off of the government on my block.

OK, my candidate didn't win but y'know folks, that's the way it goes.
Our country has been successful because we've always been able to move on after elections...well, we used to, anyways.
If he does what he said he will do, then we all gain.
If he doesn't, he sets his party back 20 years.
So, let's just see what happens.

I watched him for the last 4 yrs and saw that he actually has gotten alot done in spite of the obstructionism and those darn philabusters.The republican reps need to work with him and we will be better off for it.He cares about everyone I believe,not just the percentage with money.I hope the radicals in the senate are voted out cos no matter who is pres .they will want it their way,no matter what we,the citizens want done.They have become nothing but haters.Makes me mad they're doing that.

Dave L summed it up. Everyone that didn't see their candidate win needs to cut out the sour grapes attitude. The citizens have spoken, respect the greatest democratic process on the planet and regroup in 4 years if you don't like what you see.

Hopefully things get better...
A lot of people are suffering in our great country and with our runaway deficits and out of control spending the future is scary. I pray Barack is the answer and WE ALL want America to be prosperous! With the EXACT same House, Senate, and President, I hope they can put their swords away and come together... the last 4 years have been ridiculous and it starts at the top. Leaders Lead. Losers Blame. #UnitedWeStand
