… The idiots in this town that don't know how to stop for pedestrians in the cross walk … they really need to read your … driver's manual … and the city, the county or the state, somebody needs to put up signs over the crosswalks tellin' these idiots to slow down and stop for pedestrians. … It's truly amazin' how many times … I almost get run over in a day's time in this town because people are in too big a hurry to get to the damn red light!

If Governor Perdue needs some money for education … all he has to do is eliminate the fundin' for abortion facilities. That's what they did in New Jersey. There's your extra money.

Barack Obama once said, 'Our military is an all-volunteer force. Nobody made these guys go to war. … They had to have known and accepted the risks. Now they whine about bearing the cost of their own insurance for health … to help the government out. I thought these were people who were proud to sacrifice for their country. I wasn't askin' for blood. Just their money.'

To the caller who accused the Republicans of blocking the proposed financial reform, you are correct. They do not want to see the government takeover that Obama and the socialist left are pushing. We citizens must solve our problems … not depend on the government to control everything.

I wonder if the one mile line of people and the professor … demonstrating at Tybee Island against oil drilling … drove down there at 70 miles an hour in oil-powered vehicles. … I hope that he includes the concept of hypocrisy in his lectures.
