THE PRICE ISN’T RIGHT
In the last two weeks, the price of a barrel of oil has gone from $67 to $59 but the price of retail gasoline has remained the same. If the price of gas had a gone from $59 a barrel up to $67 a barrel, we’d be paying 70 or 80 cents more per gallon. Isn’t it funny how that works? FRANK IN BOOTHWYN
DUMP ... STUMP ... RUMP ... CHUMP ...
Put your thinking cap on and try and find how many words that rhyme with Trump. You’ll be surprised. There aren’t any nice ones that I have found.
THAT BUD’S FOR YOU
To the caller saying that they’ve never seen the Clydesdales pull up with Budweiser: Dude, you haven’t been drinking at all the right bars. What you need to do is go to the beer festival in Barnesville, Pa. It’s held every summer. The Clydesdales pull up with the wagon with a giant keg on the wagon and they back them into the beer hall. They sing polka songs and beer fest songs and they tap the kegs. Then the Clydesdales pull away with the empty. You just haven’t been drinking in the right places. Where you been? Stuck in Delco all your life like a loser? HORSING AROUND
RBG ROCKS
To “Hang It Up, RBG,” although I personally have never seen any photos of her nodding off on the bench, as you claim there to be, even if she was nodding off on the bench, Ruth Bader Ginsberg is still smarter when she is sleeping than you are when you’re awake.
MENACE ON THE ROAD
Hey this is the lady in the white, brand-new SUV Audi who thinks she’s so special coming down Route 320 and cutting that guy off in the old car: What is that guy was blind in his right eye? What would you done then? Because he would have never saw you pushing into the oncoming lane and probably hit somebody head on. Really good going. That’s probably why you’re driving a new car – because you probably wrecked the old one. I just love all the people out here with the BMWs, Audis and all the high-end cars who think they are so special that they have to zig-zag Indianapolis 500-style. You’re going to get somebody killed or kill yourself. And thanks for driving my insurance up. Have a nice day. IRATE DRIVER
PICK A PHRASE
Wonderful letter to the editor by Will Richan of Chester about the true meaning of the Second Amendment. However, gun nuts don’t care about the true meeting of the Second Amendment. They only care about one phrase — “the right to bear arms shall not be infringed upon.” That’s all they care to know about and all they will ever want to know about. Because they don’t care that the true meeting of our Constitution, they cherry pick it just like religious nuts cherry pick verses from the Bible.
THE FUTURE IS BLEAK
Did you see the video tape of the kids doing damage to the car on TV and tearing down street signs and things? Just think – this is the generation that’s going to be running in our country in 10 to 20 years. What a generation – nothing but a bunch of intellectual idiots because they know they are being videotaped but they’re still doing it because they’re stupid and don’t have common sense.
SINGING IN THE DRAIN
I’m reading about the transportation bill that Trump wants, but I don’t see any amendments tacked on for swampdraining projects. Trump has been talking on this time about the importance of draining swamps, and I’m sure legislators would like to sling some money into their districts that need swamps drained. You’d like a bill dealing with a lot of civil engineering projects would be a great time to tack this on. What gives? SARCASTIC VOTER
GREATEST PRESIDENT EVER!
To “Mega Ditto,” you are a complete idiot if you say Donald Trump is not a true American. He is the most pro-American person I know and is the greatest president in my lifetime.
