CLUB FOR GROWTH

A headline in the Times noted “Toomey touts GOP tax reform.” Well, of course he’s going to. He was the head of the Club for Growth for a while – a bunch of rich people who believe they shouldn’t have to pay taxes at all.

STORM WEATHER

These weather people make me laugh with their commentary. Didn’t it ever rain when they were kids, when it was windy and rainy? Yes, it did. But have to make these rain storms with 35 mph winds sound like a major hurricane and drum up their ratings. Hey “Susie Secane,” you tell me how you know that Trump works seven days a week, since you say it repeatedly. Unlike Obama, who was up reading paperwork late at night, your boy claims he doesn’t like to read. And how do we know that he goes golfing? Because he talks about it all the time – what a great golfer he is, how much money he makes, blah, blah blah. I guess “Susie Secane” must be one of Trump’s millionair­e buddies, waiting for their bonus to come in and the “death tax” to be repealed. Why doesn’t she treat the rest of us here in Delaware County to some good stuff like taking us for breakfast. JUST SAYING IN ASTON

DUSTY DUSTED

How come the Phils are hiring someone outside the organizati­on who never managed? Dusty Wathan and his crew did a great job at Lehigh Valley and sent us many good players. He should have got the chance. Matt Klentak – you’re a joke. DISGRUNTLE­D PHILS FAN

CHIP OFF OLD BLOCK

It’s amazing – the Phillies are going to hire a guy whose claim to fame is that he has 11 tattoos. He managed one year in the minors and led his team to a 58-81 record. And he’s going to mandate that the players eat organic food – how’d that work out across the street for Chip Kelly? Wow, what a resume! What a joke. Mr. Middleton, please step in and stop this force. DISGUSTED PHILS FAN

ANOTHER CHIP

Why did Chip Kelly ever get rid of LeSean McCoy? What an idiot. I’m glad he’s out of football. BOOTHWYN

SHIP COMING IN?

I really enjoyed the article on Sun Ship – very well written. You know, 5,000 skilled tradesmen worked in there, building fine ships. Now it’s the side of the casino. We also worked up in Bethlehem Steel at the steel mill, with thousands of skilled craftsmen up there making steel for our bridges and skyscraper­s. Now it’s the site of a casino. How long can a country operate like this? BOILERMAKE­R BOB IN BOOTHWYN

IN THE GUTTER

You have to feel sorry for the young people today who don’t have a clue as far as good quality entertainm­ent is concerned.

I say this because of the sewage that comes out of Hollywood, the so-called music industry and television. These kids have been weaned on that sort of stuff and they have no idea what the good entertainm­ent is. It’s really sad for families that sexual innuendo and filth is passed off on these kids and it’s accepted as commonplac­e. I’m truly glad I grew up when I did. We had good quality entertainm­ent and we knew what good quality entertainm­ent was. It’s truly sad. Bring back the old days, we could use it.

CHARMED LIFE

I know three people have never been held accountabl­e for anything they have done otherwise. Number one is Barack Obama. In the woeful eight years that he was president of the United States, he was never held responsibl­e for anything he did and said, no matter how wrong it was. Then you have the Clintons. I almost fell out of my chair this week when I heard a Democrat on TV say that Hillary Clinton had nothing whatever to do with the Uranium One deal; “it was all done by her staffers.” Are you kidding me? She was the secretary of state. It was under her watch. And we all know about Bill. He lied under oath and got away with it. Tell me these people don’t need a charm life.

FAKERS

To “Genuine Folks,” better that Trump genuinely be a jerk sitting at the end of a bar in Queens than Hillary changing her accent depending on what part of the country a rally is in.
