JUST YOU WAIT

I can’t wait to see how some Independen­ce Day celebratio­n somewhere gets politicize­d and everyone is outraged. Until then, happy Fourth of July, everyone. PATRIOTIC BUT CYNICAL

MAJOR LEAGUE TAXES

To “Choking On Chi Taxes,” I live in the Drexel Hill section of Upper Darby and our taxes are above $9,000, almost at $13,000 depending on where you live. So I don’t know where the houses are that are taxed at $3,500-$4,000. They must been be in the lower end of the township. I would love to have lower taxes just like anybody else in Delaware County.

COULD IT BE ... SATAN?

I see Apple has another phone out now, so everybody has to rush like intellectu­al idiots to buy one. Don’t they understand high tech is keeping them broke? No wonder people are broke and don’t have money. When are they going to wise up and get rid of all this junk? Like I said before, high tech is the instrument of the devil himself.

THAT DEMOCRATIC DNA

I like the expression from “The Russian Connection” that “Trump is thick as thieves with the Russians.” It sounds like something that Sylvester the Cat would say. But the fact is that the Republican­s – and I think it’s due to Watergate – are not as thievish as the Democrats, or at least Republican­s don’t end up in jail or indicted. It seems to be part of the Democratic DNA to get have sticky fingers and get indicted. I’m not saying this applies to everything, but if you look around the country for corruption charges, you’ll see a pattern. BOB FROM BROOMALL

NO MORALS, NO HOPE

“JMK” wants Congress to take a moral stand on the health care bill. Well, the Democrats have taken a moral stand. However, Republican­s have no morals, and they have no conscience either. They’re willing to – you as you say, which is true – kill millions of Americans by denying them healthcare in order to get tax cuts to the top 2 percent. And that is what I call as immoral as you can get.

THREE CHOICES

It’s three different channels and three different weather reports? Do they all have different equipment that tell them different weather is coming? The three of them were all different. So who do I believe? I guess I’ll believe whatever happens when I walk outside and it’s raining or there’s sunshine. They get the big advertisin­g bucks and we get to do our own weather.

HOW IT HAPPENED

“Lincoln/Hamlin ‘60” says “Johnny Depp said he’d bring his kids to visit just to see what America is like, as if it’s some kind of Coney Island amusement.” No, he doesn’t think that America is some kind of Coney Island amusement, he wants his kids to see all the brain-dead people in this country who voted for someone as horrible a person is Donald Trump, and who are actually proud of voting for someone as horrible as Donald Trump.

MAKE ME SICK

“Just A Thought” says that opening interstate competitio­n between insurance companies would be a good thing, and it would be a good thing, and that is what the ACA, in essence, was supposed to do. But acting like spoiled brats, the insurance companies didn’t like that so they packed up the toys and went home.

THANKS, DONNIE

Happy Fourth of July, America – the unemployme­nt rate is at its lowest in 12 years; gas prices lowest in 12 years; stock market up. Thank you to the people’s president, Donald Trump, and happy Fourth of July, folks. PEACE ON EARTH

SOME INTELLECTU­ALS!

After reading “The Russian Connection” saying Trump is “thick as thieves” I had to laugh about the Democrats also claiming to be the party of intellectu­als. Every few weeks there’s a leftist caller who sounds like they’re using something off a “word of the day” calendar or something from those “phrases to impress your coworkers with” faxes that used to go around offices 25 years ago.
