You said it
  • I think Gov. Bentley should include some kind of funds for the Alabama Music Hall of Fame in Tuscumbia. Let’s stick together on this and call, write or whatever.”

  • “What happened to the time when the president tried to run the United States and legislation mostly agreed with what he said as to opposed in today’s measure? I tell you what happened. God has been removed from every aspect in life, therefore, people are putting people first and not God. As long as we do this, depending on people naturally, we won’t get along with others, and Satan is winning. Guess what happens next? What happened to love one another as God loved us?”

  • “The person who called in saying that marijuana should be legal and asking if you’d rather see your child drink vodka or smoke marijuana is like asking had you rather your child get bitten by a velvet-tail rattler or a sidewinder?”

  • “To the person who called in about making legalized, what had you rather your kid do, get drunk on vodka or smoke marijuana, obviously you must be a dopehead because you wouldn’t want your kid to do either. You want them to stay in school, go to church and be good kids.”

  • “Ad nauseam is another word many in our nation would do well to learn. It means to the point of disgust, to a sickening extreme. Also, a more suitable title for Sunday, Feb. 3, editorial. “Skewering Lauderdale County High’s football coach Bob Grisham” would have been human comments rather than hurtful comments. We’ve become such a politcally correct society, we waste precious time belaboring the trivial. Ad nauseam.”

  • “The Lauderdale County school board just violated a man’s freedom of speech rights.”

  • “I would just like to comment on the Lauderdale County head coach’s comment about the first lady and gays. It is my opinion that since he was so bold to make his statements to students, his job should be terminated. He should not be allowed to be in a classroom with children forming his opinions on matters such as this.”

  • “I’d like to respond to the person who called in to You Said It about would you rather see your teenager drink vodka or smoke marijuana. I would pray that they would do neither one.” “Same-sex marriages or affairs are not God’s way.”

  • “The authoritarians want your guns. They want all your guns. And with Agenda 21, they want your houses, your land, your cars and they want to move you to high-rise slums where you will be living in a virtual prison. Study about Agenda 21 and wake up now.”

  • “I’ve been reading in the You Said It about the comments of the coach that spoke out in class about the gays and Michelle Obama. I think ... making his personal comment, his personal thoughts, but he should have kept them to himself instead of taking them into a classroom with teenage students. We’re trying to teach our children right from wrong and this was wrong. I think his punishment was just.”

  • “Coach Grisham should be treated like any other child who’s having a tantrum. You don’t take something away that they don’t care about. You need to take away his coaching ability, not the ability to teach the class he went on his rant on.”

  • “Since coaching is a position that is extra pay, isn’t that the punishment that Mr. Grisham should get? He should no longer be allowed to coach for the Lauderdale County school system because coaches are people you look up to. Right now Mr. Grisham is somebody that people do not look up to.”
