Your vents: Tuesday, Feb. 7, 2012
- AEP should be proud of the 75 percent increase. I'm a widow in my mid-70s and I turn the heat off at night. In the daytime if it is warm I have no heat on. My bill has raised $80. They should be real proud.
- There is a call coming into Charleston homes about a new Medicaid card they want to send you. They want your address, your bank and the numbers on the bottom of your check.
- Please let the West Virginia House of Delegates and state Senate members know whether you are for or against making Sudafed available by prescription.
- Just because you can exploit a loophole doesn't mean you have to. These people who are double dipping and cheating the citizens of West Virginia are disgusting and deplorable.
- To the person joking about God, the Christian Republicans and Tim Tebow: I would be careful if I were you, because you are going to stand before God someday.
- For the people complaining about the lady making the union commercial: If you don't like it, then just move out of state. I'm a union man and I don't like them here anyway.
- I know as Americans that we probably live in the best country there is, but it is run by a bunch of crooks — state and federal.
- We've had plenty of voter fraud in Hurricane, but it was never investigated. What's the difference between Hamlin and Hurricane?
- Maybe 2012 could be the year the Nitro Police Department finds the missing $58,000 and settles the FBI investigation. Thank you to the mayor and city council.
- Federal funds are drying up fast. West Virginia doesn't have the money to finish projects already started, much less keep up with needed repairs to existing roads. Say hello to higher gas taxes thanks to the Democrats.
- The same person who has a problem with Bush having access to his dad's money is totally blind to the millions Rockefeller inherited from his family.
- The IRS ruled that reporting 2011 health care data is optional for employers. I do not want my employer to report this information. Can I stop him?
- The sewer has backed up and it fills the basement to the ceiling. The GOP wants to fix the problem and clean up the mess. Obama and his crew want to raise the ceiling. We can't afford another four years of his "change."
- A high school wrestling program's entire season is suspended over hazing allegations and the coach has been fired. Nothing like that was done here when there was hazing at John Adams. Massachusetts must have different standards than West Virginia.
- A person who dies from a rope being placed around his or her neck is 'hanged.' One 'hangs' or 'hung' a picture. If you weren't paying attention in English class, now you know.
- Way to go, Newt. I'm rooting for you. Obama will beat you like a borrowed mule.
- It is Feb. 2 at 2:40 a.m. and as usual, it rains and the power goes out in Frame. Same old, same old.
- A law against texting while driving may sound good in an election year, but is totally worthless if not enforced.
- Every year when West Virginia Public Television has their fundraising, they run a bluegrass program, then say, "Send us your money to keep programming like this on the air." Then they run no more bluegrass until the next fundraising effort. Why don't they run the fine bluegrass program "Song of the Mountains?"
