Pottstown is now the destination point for tourism with Art Fusion, bike trails and canoeing. Well add to that bungee jumping from the Keim Street bridge, that should help make up for the lost revenue from Tower Health. Then charge a $2 toll to use Armand Hammer Boulevard which is the gateway to the emergency room.
Trump showed his true colors this week. He’s a mean-spirited and vindictive person. The veterans of this country pushed back hard against Trump and the White House flag was lowered again to half staff to honor the life of John McCain. I hope the veterans push Trump again right out the door. Trump is a disgrace to the office of the president.
Did you hear about the van and cycle that were completely destroyed in Alexandria, Virginia, by vandals? It was a Trump campaign vehicle. Is this how the Dems, liberals and socialists plan to win by destruction or is this the only way they will win? God bless America and President Trump. Remember good people, vote. President Trump is doing a great job. Follow up and don’t listen to fake news. Do your homework.
In Monday’s paper in the sports section they showed the results of The Northern Trust golf tournament. It said Tiger couldn’t get anything going. He tied for 40th, 14 shots out of the lead. Pitiful, and you Tiger lovers keep saying he’s back. Yeah right, this time he finished way way way back.
This message goes out to Alan Ritz concerning President Trump’s tariffs. President Trump’s tariffs have brought the European Union to the table and Mexico just re-signed a NAFTA agreement. China is sending an envoy to renegotiate our trade agreements as is Canada. Maybe you should calm your hatred a little bit before you call into Sound Off.
Has anyone else experienced ESPN or ESPN2 not working on their Comcast cable television system? This happens every day. We need to unplug, wait 10 minutes, then start the process all over again. It is becoming very tedious Comcast. Do something. —Bucktown Jack
The way some motorcyclists go flying past our house with their engine screaming as loud as it possibly can they deserve to hit a grassy patch out on the road. Call me heartless I don’t care but it’s senseless the way some of them rev their engine.
To the person who said they should have never gotten rid of Obamacare, they never did get rid of Obamacare. It was not passed through, it is still available. Just go to the website health care.gov.
Men of God have weaponized their faith and used it as a tool for abuse against children. Pope Francis has refused to say whether he knew about child sexual abuse claims against the former archbishop of Washington five years before his resignation last month. Do people that believe in God need to follow all this dogma of rules and regulations? Religion can be followed at home not at these bloodstained cathedrals. —Agnostic
In contrast to post mortem praise from the left, the 2008 Obama Campaign characterized John McCain as the next George Wallace and anti-immigrant. In a similar vein, the New York Times described then presidential candidate McCain as utterly classless. Such revisionist history is typically employed in Machiavellian fashion to provide a template for attacking the latest target of opportunity, in this case, Trump. —Mark Furlong
There are two roads in life. We know where they lead. The narrow road may feel lonely but the end is full of rewards. I’m not trying to defend any one person or to change minds. I pray for all souls. Eternity is a lot longer than our short time here. We are all of the same race, the human race. God bless us all. —Lady Di
All you people whining about the immigrants shooting people and killing them, what you don’t realize is there are far more people who are killed by U.S. citizens than illegal immigrants. Think about that. Not just the one or two you hear about. Stop your whining.
Yet again a small group of narrow-minded elitist parents of the Spring-Ford School District have stuck their noses where it doesn’t belong. What a teacher does on their own time is not the parents business. Maybe we should start investigating the parents’ private lives. So disgusted.
Concerning a Spring-Ford teacher that is a wrestler, I’m sure a number of teachers have summer jobs. Are we going to ruin their financial security by telling one that is a bartender he can’t have that job because it promotes alcoholism, the one that works at the casino he can’t because it promotes gambling? Where does this petty madness end? Mind your own pathetic lives.
I think it’s time Harrisburg stops sending tax dollar monies for education and whatever services to sanctuary towns and cities in Pennsylvania.
