It's Your Call, July 5, 2008

What are they saying?

I'm calling about the bear meeting its end in Iowa. It's just so sad the way it ended for this bear. And here in our paper, we were told that anybody who shoots this bear would be in trouble. Leave him alone. This bear was doing something that is pretty uncommon, and he was headed north. And oddly enough, we've got 15 dolphins in New Jersey's river that don't belong there. I wonder what these animals are trying to tell us. But now for the bear it was a sad ending.

Doesn't like Obama

I'm calling in response to "Who doesn't like Obama" in Thursday's newspaper. I don't. The man doesn't believe in national sovereignty. I don't care what color his skin is or what kind of a father he is, he has no business being president of a nation that he doesn't believe in.

Too inexperienced

I'm calling in about Thursday's call-in "Who doesn't like Obama." Well, I would say it's not that I don't like him, but he is just a senator from Illinois. He doesn't have that much experience to run a country like the United States of America. He's just too inexperienced for that. Plus, he went to a preacher for 20 years and didn't know he was prejudiced? I mean, come on. Let's wake up and get it together.

Confused on morals

Lately, we've heard a lot of talk about bringing morality to the White House. You know, I think that Democrats are confused about what morals actually are. Democrats are for a woman's right to choose. Well, a moral decision would be that a woman would think before she has unprotected sex. It is not the Democrats' right to take a baby's life. If you had morals, you would not be bringing children into this world without any means to support them, without two parents. But you cannot just murder a baby and then say you are a moral person.

Might as well enjoy it

About the fireworks and the loud noise. About they shouldn't be sold. Hey, this is the world. This is planet Earth. Any human being who lives on planet Earth is going to do whatever he can to make a dollar. And it's even easier when you have to show a gimmick. Now the Chinese invented something years ago called gunpowder and ever since they figured out to make a loud boom. People liked that noise. They're going to buy it. It's a guaranteed seller. If you can invent something that makes noise, you will be able to sell it. Now as far as calling the law whenever your neighbor is setting off big, loud noisemakers, you might as well enjoy it. The cops aren't going to come to investigate.

It is shameful that they shot that bear. Do we have to shoot anything that moves? What kind of a Barney Fife do they have over there that would shoot this animal. Get some tranquilizer training!

That is so sad that they shot that poor bear. My dad (Dick Smith) says that if another bear happens to come through here, don't do anything to it. Don't harm it or try to kill it because he wants a bear! He has decided to dig a den in the barn where he used to keep his horse Doc. He says he will feed the bear banana peels or anything it wants. Bears are welcome on his property so please pass the word on and encourage bears to come his way. We all have the right to bear arms, and now I think it's time to arm bears.
