AARP should not have endorsed the health plan. It is detrimental to seniors, and AARP represents the seniors. Does that make sense?

I didn't have any problem at all voting on Tuesday. I walked right in and and got immediately to the polling spot. People don't vote because they have priorities in the wrong place. That is the big problem, and that is the reason why we have the problem that we have in Washington today.

Some people cannot understand or pronounce the word "illegal." They must be illegals themselves. They should go back to school and learn how to pronounce the word "illegal" and what it means. Twelve million illegals are stealing from us American citizens.

The new trash pickup was supposed to save money.

We pay for trash pickup, we pay for extra cans, we pay at the landfills and now, they want us to pay for yard waste.

Who is saving the money?

Not the residents of Victoria.

My comment is to teachers: It is not their fault if the kids don't want to learn anything, and I don't want them to feel bad about it.

It is the parents who need to teach these kids something.

I just want to wish everybody a happy Veterans Day.

I will be in the deer camp, so don't forget us.

Happy Veterans Day to all of my buddies.

Mo, Cuero

My heart goes out to the families and for their loved ones who were either injured or killed in the Fort Hood incident.

My son-in-law and grandson are both in the Air Force, and I pray for their safety daily.

Mary, Victoria
