GET ON IT, DONNIE
I just got a call from one of them scams that the IRS is suing me. How is it that our government can’t stop something like that? I mean, they knew what Osama bin Laden was having for breakfast, but you mean to tell me they can’t trace those calls and stop it? Give me a break. M.G. IN ASTON
WAKE UP THOSE BRATS
As a father of seven children, I’d like to comment on this guest column from Sari Daisey from Chester Heights. She says students should sleep a little later, start school little later – is she out of her mind? She wants to push these kids back even further. Stop being an overprotective, overbearing helicopter parent. Let these kids get up on time and get to school on time without mommy saying, “Oh, they didn’t get enough sleep last night” or, “Oh, push school back.” I had to walk to school every day. The kids in Garnet Valley get picked up by a bus at the end of their driveway. So please give me a break, lady.
OPEN YOUR EYES, ‘SUZIE’
“Susie Secane,” you can find reports from pretty much every news outlet in the world about Trump’s constant weekend visits to his resorts in Florida, Virginia and elsewhere. Whether or not he’s playing golf every time is harder to say, but he’s definitely not spending seven days a week sitting behind his desk at the White House. There may be a better chance that he’s doing some actual work than Obama while he was pretending he was in the 1960s Jet Set flying all over the world, but in any case you really need to stop drinking the Trump Kool Aid.

BILLIONS FOR BILLIONAIRES
I don’t believe anybody who reads the Delaware County Times has to worry about anything to do with the estate tax because it’s not going to affect us, just billionaires. I hope all the Trump voters are reading this.
SHOW TIME
I agree with “Go Bush.” Since the passing of Jerry Lewis, it’s time for a Martin and Lewis – Biden and Bush, “Dubya and Uncle Joe.”
THIS IS YOUR FUTURE
To “Just Saying In Aston,” yeah, Trump is an idiot – an idiot with $50 billion. Get used to it – you’ve got seven more years of him. He won, and he’ll win again. TRUMP 2020
BRING BACK THE TOONS
I think it’s about time that the networks start putting on Saturday morning cartoons again for the kids. We all grew up on it back since the ‘50s, and it’s time for the cartoons to get back on Saturday mornings again. Start showing the classic cartoons that we all grew up with: “Huckleberry Hound,” “Top Cat, “Tom and Jerry,” “Rocky and Bullwinkle,” all the great cartoons from the past we as kids grew up with. Wake up, networks, and get back to the real stuff again in life.
GET BUSY, DONNIE
I’d like to know why the other night when we watched “The Blacklist” it had 33 commercials over 17 minutes for a onehour show. When is the government going to do something about this? JAMES E. FROM UPPER CHI
PUT THOSE BRATS TO BED
I completely disagree with the guest column from Sari Daisey of Chester Heights about Garnet Valley starting school later. You should go to bed at a time that provides you enough sleep to feel rested. The fact that you’re saying that sleep deprivation leads teens to use caffeine, nicotine and other stimulants to stay awake, and the more they use the later they stay up – those substances shouldn’t be used by children. And if there’s a rise in obesity from children using caffeinated, sugar-filled drinks to stay awake – again, children should not be using caffeinated, sugar-filled drinks to stay awake. That’s bad parenting. So we don’t need everyone to go to school later, we just need people to be good parents. TIME TO END THE CODDLING
