Now that Corey Booker has decided to run for president, I hope the mainstream media looks into his background like they did Supreme Court Justice Kavanaugh, but I doubt if they will because after all he’s a Democrat.
Just wanted to give a shout-out to Nino’s Pizzarama in Linfield. I stopped there the other day for breakfast, they now serve breakfast, and it was one of the best breakfasts I ever had, and along with their pizza and everything else their food is really great. The people are nice. You won’t be disappointed. It’s very, very good.
I see in The Mercury where they applied to renew their license for the Montgomery Elks. You have got to be kidding me. Isn’t that the wonderful organization where they assaulted a police officer when he was trying to make an arrest during the disturbance of the peace and nobody knew who did it and all from that club? They need to have no liquor license. If they get it back the Pottstown Police Department ought to all quit in total immediately.
In response to the comment about having to drive behind the school bus, you gave me a really good laugh. I leave 10 minutes early to miss the school bus. I can’t imagine what all those parents would have to do if they had to stand at the school bus at 9 a.m. waiting for the bus when they’re supposed to be at work at 8 a.m. It’s not just about you.
Does anyone else see it as a kickback to Planned Parenthood from Gov. Northam of Virginia? Planned Parenthood donated $3 million to the governor’s campaign to get elected and now he comes up with this evil abortion up-to-birth policy. Planned Parenthood does an average of 911 abortions each day, about half of the total U.S. abortions. There’s lots of profit in the killing business.

To the person who thinks that illegal drugs enter the U.S. from Mexico, despite the recent fentanyl bust both you and Donnie got it wrong. Administrative officials report that most illegal drugs come into this country via several ports of entry.

Good morning Lefty and all of the other misinformed Democrats, bless your heart. I’m retired and I filed my income tax already and I’m getting exactly $725 more back for 2018 than 2017. So I just want to say thank you President Trump for putting some positive tax policies through. My money’s better in my pocket than the government’s pocket. Thanks again Mr. President.
When you contact someone in the township because all you’re asking for is their opinion or advice, nothing else, the person said “I will get back to you next week” but I’m still waiting and it has been 5½ months.
Sportscasters and sports writers are carefully avoiding mentioning that the Patriots were not the first team to win six Super Bowl trophies. The Steelers got their sixth trophy 10 years ago. Maybe they don’t want to rain on their parade.
In defense of JB from Gilbertsville, I am a former border patrol guard and I have about 25 good friends that are on the border right now and they’re telling me things aren’t any better than they were, in fact some places they’re worse. So don’t listen to your politicians when they tell you that it’s getting better, take it from somebody who is down there guarding the border.

Correct me if I’m wrong, I thought the Limerick supervisors said our taxes wouldn’t be raised for a few years because they made a big killing selling the sewer plant. If anyone knows or agrees with me, I wish they would call in, or is this just another fake news?
I’m looking for some advice on bed bugs. My neighbor has them in their house. Who can I call in Pottstown to try and rectify this situation? Any help would be appreciated. This has been going on for a long time now.
Here we go again Sound Offs. In Tuesday’s edition of The Mercury in “Today in History” February 5, 1917 The U.S. Congress passed an act severely curtailing Asian immigration vetoed by President Woodrow Wilson a Democrat. What a surprise.

I’m mad at Nancy Pelosi. She let Trump into her House and he naturally embarrassed himself. Besides being weird he told lie after lie and Republicans acted like trained seals. No caravan, no crisis, no wall. #lies.

To the person commenting about Tiger Woods again, no I don’t agree with cheating on your wife, happily married for 30 years thank you. But everyone makes mistakes and no one’s perfect and everyone deserves a second chance. Are you perfect?
