I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone involved in helping make the holidays a lot happier for many children in our area. The outpouring of generosity was once again tremendous. It's nice to know there are so many caring individuals throughout our community.

While watching the news again the only thing you hear is Republican and Democrats this or that.
What I want to know is why are they out trying to campaign all the time.
I'm not a Dem or a Repub, I'm an American and I say if its good for the people and the country then get it done and stop playing politics.
I don't care who you are. You were elected by the people to do a job. You work for the people, not a party. Do what you were elected to do and stop the bull.

Here in the Keystone State, it's no secret that our highways and bridges are vital to our existence and play a key role in all our lives. From a school bus driver picking up school children, to a doctor heading to work at a hospital, to the farmer delivering milk, Pennsylvania's highway and bridge system consists of thousands of miles of roadway, much of which faces a serious crisis.
I can not believe that Senator Casey has joined Senator Jay Rockefeller in working to inhibit the EPA ability to do it's job. Specifically to regulate the CO2 emissions of the nation's largest polluters through
directives of the Clean Air Act.
These Senators believe that Congress not the EPA should regulate emission standards. Give us a break! We all have seen Congress in action and frankly have little faith in their willingness and ability to accomplish anything other than presenting a sickening show of self-serving, small minded, partizan theater.
The economy the way it is. My Bills adding up. How can anybody be happy and really laugh today?
Well after reading Mr. McLaughlin's column on Saturday TIMES NEWS I not only laughed, but I laughed out loud. As for Bob Urban's column, I didn't get any questions right either.
The heroin epidemic in Carbon County is killing our children.
I am the parent of a recovering heroin addict, and believe me I am scared every day that I'm going to get the call that my child, too, is dead.
PEOPLE OF CARBON COUNTY WAKE UP!!!!
These are no long our safe little towns, Lehighton, Lansford, Nesquehoning, Palmerton and Summit Hill are all plagued with this disease. And it is just that a "disease" that turns people into liars, thieves, and people into someone their own family and friends don't even recognize.
