When I saw in the paper that two of the beaches at Lake Wappapello were closed due to budget cuts, I was really upset. Our president runs around all over the country promoting himself mostly and acting like all of the bad things in Washington have nothing to do with him. If he would just stay in Washington and do his job that we pay him to do, all these people who can't afford to go on vacations could go to the lake for a day or two. Now they can't even do that. I tell you, we need a new president.
I was calling about the Postal Service. Looks like the nightmare has come true by looking at the local news. We're going to lose our main postal facility here and everyone's mail will go to St. Louis. We were getting good service even though they were having problems. I hope the Lord helps everyone in this area with their mail and business with St. Louis controlling everything for us now.
