Way to go, home! :) So proud to see the Buckeye State go blue & decide the race.

Want to know why Cuyahoga Falls Schools lost their excellent rating? See above!
Betsy November 9, 2012 at 01:39 pm
This city is full of morons. I'm literally surrounded by people living off of the government on my block.
Dave L November 9, 2012 at 02:37 pm
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.
russell leisenheimer November 9, 2012 at 03:20 pm
A map would help....what part of the city is precinct *?
russell leisenheimer November 9, 2012 at 03:21 pm
make that precinct 8
Andy Duve November 9, 2012 at 03:38 pm
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.
Rick Bonath November 9, 2012 at 04:45 pm
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...

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

Given your response, the moron claim fits you perfectly.

Hey, Kate Biggam! Thanks for your comment... I miss you. ~Ms. G from KSU

Both parties need to work together but we need a new mayor! Robart needs to go!!!!
Beverly Valarinos November 13, 2012 at 10:22 pm
Speak for yourself Betsy
Beverly Valarinos November 13, 2012 at 10:25 pm
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.

Jack Kelly,
Given your response, the teabagger claim fits you perfectly.

You didn't know what? Oh, how to read a calendar. But, your stupidity/illiteracy is the media'sRead More fault. Okay m0ron.
dean alexander June 18, 2013 at 09:47 pm
blame the media, how silly, google the information stop being so lazy
dean alexander June 18, 2013 at 09:46 pm
Just amazes me that people can't take responsibility, blame everyone else because they are too lazyRead More to be aware of what is going on, if you are that concerned about flag day, then you would think you would know when it is or just google it, all the information is available, it is so sad how our country has the blame everyone else attitude, wake up and take personal responsibility
Geoffrey Watson June 18, 2013 at 10:32 pm
Nolan,Why should a person even have to check a calendar to see when a holiday is. The media blastsRead More relentlessly on everything else that doesn't amount to a hill of beans. Yet when it comes to flying the flag the are MUM. That is what I am talking about. Like Dean said. Maybe peoplw don't display flags because they didn't know. Dean, what's the media for, if not getting the word out? Are they there to just sit on their butts and let people wonder what they really do? Talk about being responsible, I think the media should be responsible for getting the word out. They need to do something for their pay.
dean alexander June 19, 2013 at 01:02 am
Like I said take personal responsibility and stop being a puppet

The mental health department should check this place out too! That holds true for any 12 step cultRead More group!

What's your point, DICK? You are posting a sarcastic question and clearly don't understand projectsRead More like PC and how cities work with builders. C'mon DICK, write a legitimate question and quit belly aching DICK.

Christine - you somehow missed the detail that the property has been sold to Stark? The ball is inRead More his court now.

We were very fortunate to have the Humane Society take them. They should be available for adoptionRead More soon. I am just deeply saddened that people can do something like this with no concern for the dogs' welfare and to thrust that responsibility onto others who can't stand by and do nothing.
Janet Wahl June 3, 2013 at 07:33 am
Those kind of people would leave their human kids as well.
Christine June 3, 2013 at 11:27 am
I agree, this is inconsiderate and unkind. I would wish that people would not treat their animalsRead More so, but that remains a wish. However, I am thankful that something worse did not happen. At least at the park, someone was there who was kindhearted enough to take action. I shudder to think of the "other" possibilities.

Congrats John. I know what you are feeling. I know when my daughter was born way back in 1975 @Read More Cuyahoga Falls General. I wanted to go out to the intersection of Broad and State Rd and shout at the top of my lungs, "I have a baby daughter" That was the greatest enjoyment and biggest trill ever!! I was a big part of the delivery. I was in the room the whole time and would not have it ant other way. Way to go John and Jaklyn!!
