To the person who dropped the black and white cat on I-64 between Montrose and Oakwood exits: I hope you suffer dearly.
Finally, someone with some guts in the newspaper is writing what's wrong with Charleston. Don Surber, keep up the good work. You've hit the nail on the head. Now if we could just change the leaders in Charleston, we could get something done.
In response to the fat football coach comment: I was wondering what sports pages this person had been reading. None of the coaches in Putnam, Kanawha, Jackson, etc., are fat except maybe one.
Gov. Manchin must think we're absolute idiots to not see through his smokescreen when he only talked to DuPont's lawyers and his brief dovetails with their brief and then he complains about the amount of the settlements each individual would receive versus the whopping attorney's fees. It's obvious he's on DuPont's side.
Obama again showed lack of judgment by choosing Joe Biden as his vice presidential running mate. He will lose the election. But as a Republican I'm thrilled with the choice. If he had picked Hillary, he might have won.
I don't know who the dummy was that questioned John McCain's Christianity in the interview with the California church leader. McCain has a great faith and it's very deep. How dare you question his Christianity?
To the venter who said Obama should change his name to John Smith or something Christian: That had to be a joke, right? You couldn't be serious. If you were serious, that has to be the most ignorant comment I have heard in my life. No wonder West Virginia is last in everything. There are too many ignorant people here.
The mayor of Dunbar tried to fix the road to the Wine Cellar Park fishing lake for the last two years but the city council members wouldn't let him. Shame on them.
To the venter who said he was very disappointed with McCain's political ad stating Obama would raise taxes: Obama is going to raise taxes. The Democrats have always been known for raising taxes.
I found it ironic that the plaid-shirt serial bank robber has the same make and model truck that they are looking for in the sniper shootings in Cabin Creek.
Will someone tell the governor to leave the tent up because the circus will be in town in a few months, and then it can be used for the clowns in the Legislature? After that it can be taken down.
The time has come to test all teachers as a condition for their employment. My daughter had a teacher in the second grade who used crack cocaine knowingly in the community and didn't lose her job. Test every one of them. Teachers union or not, they all should be drug tested.
After reading all the Bush-bashing in the Vent Line, it becomes apparent the same person is calling in all the time.
How many bushels of corn does it take to make one gallon of ethanol?
Why would a person say we wasted money on Iraq and couldn't mess with Russia? You're nothing but a dumb liberal. We are winning the war in Iraq, and if we did go after Russia who would you blame? Bush, of course. You need to read about what's going on and stop watching the network news.
Why not name our state Byrd? His name is on everything using taxpayers' money. Of course the people living off the government think he's God.
Putnam County teachers got an all-expense-paid trip to the Clay Center Friday. This is how my hard-earned tax dollars are at work. Why not keep it in the county, spend less money and put the money toward the schools and the kids? Come on. Let's get it right.
I just finished reading Bill Smith's article about Bill Stewart's practice session with the WVU football team. They were to practice how to board a bus, how to sit on a bus, how to enter a hotel room, and how to act like humans. Amen to Bill Smith. If I were Bill Stewart I would be embarrassed. Bring back Bill Smith.
Does anyone know where you can get malt for malted milk shakes?
I think it was a stand-up thing that the owner of the Black Hawk Saloon did. It was awesome.

So McCain has chosen a Woman for his Vice Pres?
This smells of trying to get the sour grape Hillary supporters to come on over to the Repub side. I was disappointed that Obama didn't choose her; but she & Bill would come as a packaged deal. And while I admire Pres Clinton as a former Pres, he still is very powerful. They had their chance in the White House. Perhaps Biden will offer different connections. It's alot about who you know.

Actually, flying the flag upside down signifies distress - it isn't a mockery at all. I definitely believe that our current situation could be defined as distressing...

To fly a Flag any other way than upright with the stars next to the pole is a mockery of the Flag and the United States.You can fly a Flag at half-staff but any other way is wrong.This only goes to show your mentality and you should be ashamed of yourself for making fun of the Flag and I hope someone cites you for what you are doing.Find some other way to get your point across but don't use the Flag of the United States to do it.

WVA Democrat: Please do you swallow everything the media and Dims tell you? The Dims depend on ignorant, ill informed, dependent voters to continue in power. Stole the election? Even the liberal papers, several of them, determined that no matter how you counted the votes; Bush won. If you still believe he didn't you are sadly subscribing to a discredited left wing lie.
