Obama’s scare tactics

Dear Editor,

The sequester didn’t go the way Obama wanted it to, so now it’s the scare tactics to scare people about the government shut down, and the cuts in military and Head Start, and other cuts.

Who does he think he is? Yes, he is our president of the USA, but not a very good one. He will tell everyone that he is going to cut the budget and not raise the taxes, however he is not truthful when he says what he will do. It all sounded good until he was elected, after he was in office again his promises didn’t happen. Just maybe he needs to take a good look at how much money he and his wife spends: $9,000 on a dress to wear when she went to see the Pope, that seems to be a lot of money for one dress, but he feels that is OK, it’s not his money he is spending, oh how about all of the trips he takes whenever he feels like playing golf, or to fly anywhere else he wants to go.

If he was to take a good long look at how much they spend, and stop spending so much, maybe we wouldn't be in such a mess. He blames President Bush for the mess we are in, but he won't take the blame for all of his spending, to my understanding our country owes a lot more now then when President Bush was in office. I am so very disgusted with what he is doing to our country. We all need to take stand and let him know how we feel about what he is doing to our country, and if he can't be the president he should be then he needs to let someone else to take his place.

A very disgusted American.

Dana Stovall, Weatherford

America is being destroyed by voter fraud and the buying of votes by the followers of Karl Marx.

NOW HEAR THIS: ‘What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate’
This famous quote addressing communication failure is a classic line from the 1967 movie “Cool Hand Luke,” starring Paul Newman. Strother Martin, who played the role of the warden in a southern prison, would use this phrase every time he gave Luke a good whack with his baton. The concept resonated so well with moviegoers that it was voted No. 11 of the 100 all-time favorite movie quotes according to the American Film Institute.

Do you remember the “MISSION ACCOMPLISHED” sign that the personnel on the USS Abraham Lincoln displayed to greet President Bush when he went out to greet them?

TISCIONE: Woe for calling evil good
You don’t often see “woe” used in an article. It’s a word that has fallen out of usage in our day. But it’s a word that ought to be understood and taken seriously.

I just wanted to express my heartfelt thanks to the slobs, idiots and inconsiderate people who continually decorate the beautiful Texas landscape with their trash. I guess it’s really a form of art with beer bottles and cans, boxes, plastic drink containers, food packaging and just about anything else you can think of. It just doesn’t appeal to me. Thank you.

NOW HEAR THIS: Not by the hairs of my chinny chin chin
I had never really considered this possibility, but every one of the Three Little Pigs was almost certainly a guy. I know that assumption is not particularly popular from an equal opportunity standpoint, but the fact is fairly certain. How do I know? They all three had hair on their chinny chin chins.
