Is It About The Money?
Robert DeGarmo (7/24) says big money is the trouble with the U.S.A. He didn't include Obama, who is speechifying at Democratic fundraisers twice a day and ignoring events here and abroad, on his list. I guess he's not interested in the country, just money.
Meanwhile, Bill and Hillary are amassing a fortune at $250,000 per speech.
Earth to Robert: These funds ending up in Democratic coffers and personal bank accounts aren't coming from the poor and needy.

Ambulance Questions
In all the discussion of the county ambulance service, I have two concerns to be answered.
If the cities will leave the county with no ambulance service for rural country roads, exactly what will happen when a resident of a city calls in from the county road? Will the person answering the 911 call ask "what city do you reside in?"
Also, I would like to see a concise and realistic account of just exactly what the ambulance service is actually costing each of the seven cities.
Waiting for definitive answers.
