I think the woman in Ohio who left her 2-year-old child in the car, should be punished. I only lets all these other so-called mothers leave their kids a car to cover up murder.
They had to keep postponing the DWI hearings because quite often they're so drunk that they can't make their court appearances.

Really, Auburn is going to be a ghost town, we keep losing all these factories, there's not going to be a thing in Auburn, just banks and gas stations. It's getting ridiculous - I don't know why these people in the high offices here in Auburn can't get some work in this town.

I'd like to know where all our jobs in Auburn are going. We were promised jobs here in Auburn, and we haven't got them, thanks to Mayor Lattimore.

I'd like to know why that light down on Dunning Ave. and West Genesee Street stays so long. It seems as though it's timed to stay so long --- someone needs to re-adjust that.

The $12,000 the school board is spending on the wasteful study would be better spent on the children getting to school safely.

" Karl, let me see if I get this straight.....would you and your fellow conspiracy theorists have us all believe that the indisputable time line of that day has been falsified.Do you wish to believe that the entire world that witnessed the events of that day lied in order to create the second largest conspiracy next to that of Jesus. Secretly some form of government mind control must have been implemented to make it appear to ALMOST THE ENTIRE WORLD that the TWIN TOWERS WERE HIT FIRST....over 30 minutes BEFORE THE PENTAGON WAS HIT. Mass hypnosis.....airborne chemical disbursing in the jet stream......perhaps the water supply............maybe some form of space - time disruption......hhhhmmmmmmmm. Perhaps as your good old religious argument goes..... all those who witnessed or wrote about the events of that day (be it first hand or based on tellings of others), lied to cover up for a greater agency and we have propagated that lie by brutally forcing our will on all those who choose not to believe it as the truth. No matter how it was done it seems as though you would have the history books rewritten again..... That being said, now for the more sane reality. You once again have exposed your ignorance by trying to argue conspiracy about events for which you amazingly seem to know nothing about. 9/11 is only one of the most important events in U.S. modern history and you apparently slept right through it. WOW!!!! Even my 8 year old daughter knew that the Towers were hit before the Pentagon. Approx. time line for those not paying attention over the last 6 yrs: 8:45 am Tower 1 (north) hit 9:03 am Tower 2 (south) hit 9:40 am Pentagon is hit Surely such a "learned" man as you would have already had empirical data such as this committed to memory. In the event that you do wish to dispute these facts .....we should add delusional to paranoid and narcissistic. You demand answers to the inconsistencies yet you cannot seem to comprehend the reality of the basic events............tough road ahead.......CHEW ON THAT... "

" It was recently reported that a "non fighter" military plane was diverted from its original course by air traffic control to try to figure out what the plane that hit the Pentagon was doing/going. I watched an interview of the pilot flying the plane. He said he was there almost immediately after the plane hit. "

" cm, the CNN confirmation is only the LATEST confirmation of the story, and significant because it's a major media outlet. OK, cm, chew on this--the Pentagon crash occurred BEFORE the WTC attacks, right? And yet with that kind of state-of-the-art SATELLITE-based radar system, you mean to tell me that it shouldn't have been able to see the planes in the air headed toward WTC?!?! If that's your theory, then WHAT THE %#&% GOOD IS THAT PLANE and WHY was it up there in the FIRST place? What--to simply "protect" the president? But it couldn't see the WTC planes??? That defies credulity! As is, your argument is just another spin on "We (meaning the government) are taking care of you and you should just let us do it as we see fit and not question it" I don't buy that canard about the giving away information to the enemy either--that's another dire smokescreen that the Bush cabal has been hiding behind in order to deny the public its right to know. The most secretive government in history. Personally, I want an explanation for not only that but for about two dozen OTHER inconsistencies and obfuscations in the 9/11 report that just don't wash with the facts. And I'm not even fazed by the typical Conservative smear about "paranoia" and whatever other disparaging nonsense they use in their ad hominum attacks. Lets have some answers, PERIOD! "

" Karl, this was taken from a recent article (posted 10:09 am September 13, 2007) about your latest conspiracy theory It was about 10 am on 9-11. The hijacked planes had already hit the World Trade Center and the Pentagon (the Pentagon crash occurring at 9:37 am), and the White House was among the government buildings in Washington that were being evacuated. NORAD had scrambled fighters into the air without any clear idea of where the fighters would go or what their responsibilities or orders were. At that moment, a mysterious plane appeared in the restricted air space above the White House. That plane, as you’ll see in the clip, was most likely an Air Force E-4B flying command post. The CNN story gives too much air time to the Truthers for my tastes, but it’s not hard to see why. In the absence of having every single thing about that day explained, conspiracy theories arise among the paranoid and narcissistic. And the government has no long-term interest in acknowledging that the E-4B was sent up, why it was sent up or who might have been on board. In telling our citizens every single thing about what the E-4B might have been used to do on 9-11, we would also be telling our enemies quite a bit more about that plane’s roles and capabilities than would be prudent. Of particular interest is the second sentence of paragraph 2: "In the absence of having every single thing about that day explained, conspiracy theories arise among the paranoid and narcissistic." Seems to sum you up in a nut shell .............................! "

" First of karl--You told US to stop believing in all we hear on CNN last month! And now you are going on and on about a story there! Military planes were sent out to try to STOP these planes BUT they were too far away from NY city--maybe they got to the Pentagon? Maybe since the Pentagon is a high profile building they ALWAYS have higher security? I havent seen the CNN story yet. "

" But I DO, I DO Believe in The Tooth Fairy!!.....wait a minute....YOU DON'T??? Anyhoo---how 'bout that plane, DD? Does your amusing sarcasm prevent you from formulating an intelligent theory on why there was a radar-and-targeting Top Secret 747 above the Pentagon as t it was hit--and yet it wasn't able to prevent or warn in advance of the strike? And how come we haven't seen any surveillance photos from that plane??? Hmmmm??? "

" I heard a rumor that the Auburn School board spent $24K for a school bus computer program for routes, but they forgot to include the human element for little kindergartners that had to cross the arterial. I say replace the school board with robots since they like computers so much. "

" I guess Bush and the government really showed us. Ya know, bombing WTC, the Pentagon, and that really really really important FIELD in the middle of PA. Makes perfect sense when you say it Karl, NOT. Anyway--I think that whenever you place any weapon in the hands of a skeleton, you're making a mistake. Can't kill 'em. "

" DD, glad to hear that the The Tooth Fairy still has a jog here in America under this Bush economy--I'm surprised to hear that his job hasn't been outsourced overseas! Now, what's your theory on that mysterious targeting-radar plane? Or am I to assume that a meaningless post means that you're simply stymied into stupidity? BTW, "Jason and the Argonauts" is playing on cable right now with those cool stop-motion skeletons! "

" Why is everyone looking to blame Lattimore for the job losses? Not to defend Lattimore, but wasn't it Hillary Clinton who promised upstate New York jobs when she was running for senate? Funny, where is she now? She has already forgotten about us, and has moved on to lying her way to the White House. So, what happens when she loses? (and we all know she will) Does she come back here, and fulfill all of her campaign promises? I seriously doubt it. Can anyone show me that her intentions have been to serve the people of New York at any point in her tenure as senator? So what, she co-sponsored a couple of bills. It was meaningless because they only wanted her name on the bill for notariety. She had nothing to do with drafting them. She is such an opprtunistic, carpetbagging, wench. I think its funny that my most memorable moment with regard to Senator Clinton was on MLK Day in Atlanta when she started speaking like a black person while addressing the baptist church, and accusing the White House of operating as if they were a plantation. That should offend everyone on MLK Day. She disrespected a great human being's memory in my mind by using it as a platform to get her digs in at the white house. I personally laughed my butt of because she looked like she was lobbying instead of showing respect to the congregation--and people never called her out on it. I think that the congregation showed everyone that they can be totally disrespected by someone, and be blinded to it. This is why Hillary has been a mild success. I wish everyone would wake up, and realize how utterly disrespectful she is to the residents of NY. She was elected on a number of promises, none of which she has followed through on. She was play acting to us, just like she was when addressing the congregation in Atlanta. No one has said a word here either. I'll quit my afternoon banter, and head downtown for some libation and wings. See you all out and about. "

" Hey did you hear?! CNN just did a piece confirming the existence of a plane over the Pentagon on 9/11--when the airspace was supposed to be closed--at the VERY MOMENTS that the Pentagon was struck. Not AFTER the Pentagon was struck; but EXACTLY AT the time that the Pentagon was struck! And this was not just ANY plane--it has been confirmed as a Boeing 747-EB-something-or-other---a MOBILE COMMAND POST. That's right! A MOBILE COMMAND POST, with the MOST significant and sensitive tracking and targeting radar available to the Military on board!. Perfect for, say...directing the flight of a remote-controlled drone packed with explosives, or a cruise missile delicately into the ONE AND ONLY WALL of the Pentagon whuch was being renovated SPECIFICALLY TO WITHSTAND THE BLAST OF SAY...A REMOTE-CONTROLLED EXPLOSIVE-PACKED DRONE OR CRUISE MISSILE?! The "Official" comment from the Pentagon??? "NO COMMENT" !!!!! WHAT ARE THEY HIDING??? "
