I see that trigger-happy Trump has increased the number of troops complete with tanks and assault weapons from 800 to over 5,000 to confront the caravan of immigrants. What does he intend to do, blow them off the face of the earth? —One Who Is Scared
I’m calling to remind anybody who wants to leave the country right now Barbara Streisand is ready to leave, Whoopi Goldberg is going to leave, Joy’s going to leave so get your reservation in early to travel with these ladies.
China, the planet’s leading producer of greenhouse gases, was granted significant dispensations in the proposed Paris Climate Accord. They were tied to its status as a “undeveloped country.” This “undeveloped country” just budgeted for two additional aircraft carriers, its third and fourth. —M. Furlong To the person blaming Trump for the 85 cents after the Medicare tax, it was the Democrat President Carter who gave Welfare and Medicare to those who never worked and never put a cent into the fund. That’s why it’s been depleted so fast and Democrats are going to give more away with the illegals coming up from Mexico. Wake up and know the facts. —Mike M.
Tuesday is finally almost here, Election Day, and I think it’s time that we show these so-called incumbents where they get off at. We should vote them all out.
Protesters in Pittsburgh against Trump and the online letter telling Trump to stay away, nobody was looking at whether the signatures were even from the locals or country-wide politically motivated. The group initiating the letter just happens to be associated with Soros’ son. Nobody is looking at the credentials of the protest organizers. Are they the same ones that organized the Washington protest?
For anyone considering moving to Stowe come on in, we’re here. Wednesday night we had the nicest kids of all Halloweening. Some were even in high school and they were so polite. Being handicapped I really appreciated them coming knocking and having a good time. Thank you guys and girls you did a great job on Halloween.
Lady Di you said President Obama never reached 3 percent growth. No, he reached 5.1 percent. So get your facts straight unless you can prove any different because I know you can’t. —Baby Trump
Robert Mueller has asked the FBI to probe allegations that a woman was offered up to $20,000 to make false accusations of sexual harassment against him. Jack Burkman, a Republican talk show host, contacted the woman via email. Lucky when she was contacted she immediately called the FBI. Only one can wonder if Trump was behind this attack. Heads will fly after the midterm elections.
Remember to vote for whomever is the best candidate for this country not for a smooth-talker politician who does nothing but makes false promises and accusations.
I read in The Mercury where Route 100 is closing at the railroad crossing for the Colebrookdale Railroad to upgrade the railroad crossing. They just redid that. The H and K group just did it and it’s the smoothest railroad crossing I ever crossed. What’s wrong, did PennDOT realize they did too good of a job now they’re going to rip it up and make it rough like all the other ones on South Hanover Street? What’s going on? Doesn’t make sense.
Jay Miller, hate has come from the Maxine Waters tirade, Nancy Pelosi’s threats of blood in the streets, Eric Holder and Al Sharpton inciting violence, Hillary and Barack instilling socialist Marxism ideology in government and Steve Scalise riddled by bullets. All Democrat acts of government subversion. But Trump he is MAGA. —Dr. Jimbo
I realize my positive attitude can’t cure all the problems in the world but it annoys enough people to make it worthwhile. —Jim Fitch
I was watching the news again about all these people hit by not stopping for school buses. Do all you people complaining about speeding buses really have a leg to stand on? —JCS
I have not read any comments about the lovely Rev. Louis Farrakhan from the Church of Islam. Do all you lovely Dems know what he has done? They had his picture hanging out with President Obama and he was just recently hanging out with Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. He has said numerous times how antisemitic he is and how awful Jewish people are. Get your facts. —Miss Sville
Halloween found North Washington Street blocked off for a street party, people riding bicycles in dark clothes and black costumes. You had to be careful as children walked with parents with no flashlights in the dark. North Charlotte Street was as usual, people double parked while kids got their candy, that you had to be careful and go around. Traffic was heavy and cars with high beams on, no courtesy. That’s Pottstown. —Trick Or Treat
