Vent line

* Democrats think its OK for the top dog of the Air National Guardto campaign for Senator Byrd, but they think its wrong for a highschool principal to make a cameo appearance in a Republicancandidates commercial. n Teachers, if you dont like the pay and thehours, get a different degree and a different job so the Vent Linewill have more room for interesting comments. You guys sound likebroken records. You knew the type of situation you were getting intowhen you chose the profession. * Why do WVU fans think thatsupporting their team means degrading and disrespecting other teams?Why do they think their team and school are so much better thaneveryone else? Mountaineer fans need a lesson in sportsmanship alongwith a reality check. * Let it be known that, I, too, am affiliatedwith West Side Volunteer Fire Department, and I do not support ShellyMoore Capito. * Why am I not surprised that Don Surber would be a fanof Republican State Television, sometimes called Fox News. * Why dontthe cities of South Charleston, Dunbar, Nitro and St. Albansconsolidate? That way Charleston cant take them over. They can takeCharleston over. * To the person wanting to know how to get theirneighbor for dumping on their property line, just call the healthdepartment or the police. * Even Barney had a gun and one bullet. *Don Surbers list of 20 great Americans was wonderful. Four of the topfive are liberals; six of the top 10 are liberals; and one, theStatue of Liberty, was made by the French. I love it. * I attended anexcellent meeting at Chamberlain School. They were concerned with theinfiltration of drugs on Washington Avenue, Venable Avenue, and 50thStreet. They did an excellent job and the police have been workingwith the community to rid it of drugs. There was no mention of thedecreasing value of property, which is happening all over the UnitedStates. * Seven facts and four corrections: The Korean War was threeyears and we did not win it. The Vietnam Wars length was eight yearsand we did not win it. So far the Iraq War is four years along. Thatis 15 years of war total and over 100,000 dead. Ask Bush if he thinksit was worth it and why did he cut and run from Vietnam? How manymore years are our boys going to be killed and wounded? * I think theperson who took the pictures for the majorette festival needs to be alittle more equal with the pictures. Capital High got four picturesand some only got one little one. I think it needs to be equal. *Regarding the peanut better allergies: I spoke with my child and toldhim that he could still take a peanut butter sandwich to school aslong as he washed his hands afterwards. He said, No, Mom, it could bedangerous. Ill just eat turkey. Hes seven and he gets it. I wishthere were more adults out there who could be more empathetic tothese children with serious allergies. * The Hurricane police chiefsaid that the pellet gun that was brought to school could not killanyone. No, but it could blind someone. It doesnt matter the reasonthey brought the gun to school. It is still a gun and should behandled as such.
