I’m a City of Tonawanda resident for most of my life and I see the recycling guys don’t want to put themselves out to do their jobs and we paid for their services. So please help, somebody get on their butt and get their job done the way they should.

This is to the North Tonawanda Police: Start handing out tickets to all the people walking in the road. The sidewalks are perfectly clear. We could close our budget gap if you would do that.

They keep talking about the missing teen jogger in California who was found murdered. And they got the guy. We have so many perverts, sex offenders and rapists out there in this country it’s ridiculous. What do they do in the Middle East to these kind of people? I think they chop their hands off, castrate them or just behead. I think the United States is too easy on these people. We put them on probation. Give them a little jail time and slap them on the hand. I think the laws in this country need to be changed.

Hillary is just like Obama. They all give good speeches but, this is for Hillary. We’re still waiting in New York State for the 200,000 jobs you promised when you ran here in New York state. But now that you’re gone, I guess that promise is just like the rest of the politicians out there. You’re all talk, no action. You just want to get elected, so you can get that nice pension.

I graduated from North Tonawanda High School in 1974 and I want to say as a kid growing up I had the two best gym teachers any kid could ever ask for in Ted Moore and Nick Sebek.

I’m calling about Andrea McNulty getting appointed to a county position. This woman decieved the taxpayers of North Tonawanda by living out of district and collecting a paycheck and representing people in a district where she doesn’t even live. And now she is getting rewarded with a county job. Pay and benefits totaling $50,000 is absolutely ridiculous. Politics at its finest. And I myself will never vote for a Republican again.

President Obama was quoted that his health bill would be partially funded by cuts in Medicare. As a senior citizen on Medicare, what cuts will I see in my benefit?

When a skyscraper writes checks to meet a payroll, then maybe I'll agree with the editor that corporations aren't people. But I'm not holding my breath. If the New York Times corporation has free speech rights, than so does Halliburton corporation. It's elementary. If individuals have free speech rights, so do groups of individuals. Liberalism 101, states: The people are too stupid to watch political commercials and decide for themselves, so let's have fewer of them, and let the "un-biased" media tell them the truth. As the non-reporting of the Speaker of the House saying, "We have to pass the health care bill to find out what’s in it" and the Louise Slaughter-ing of House rules shows, NBC, CBS, ABC and the New York Times cannot be trusted to tell the truth. What they report is not even close to being the news.

As always, a student gets beat up near a middle school and it's the teacher’s fault. How about we lay some of the responsibility on the parents!

- Sound Off published May 25 It's not up to the editor of a newspaper to get a birthday card from President Obama. My mother just turned 86 and she got a card from him. All you have to do is write to the greeting room, C/O White House, 1600 Pennsylvania Ave., NW Washington, D.C. 20500. As long as the person is 80 or above, they will receive a card.
