Sunday's Sound Off

This is the first State of the Union address I purposely missed since the Carter administration. I can no longer stomach Obamaís constant deceitfulness and blame game. His idea of getting along is for Congress to back his big government, big spending and big debt agenda. Anything else he considers partisan politics.

This is to Shame, Shame about the emergency ambulance ride at $1,700. My mother was helicoptered from Pottstown to Jefferson hospital in Philadelphia and the bill was $29,500 so get over it.

Here is a definite disgrace from President Obama to an American hero, Chris Kyle, who was murdered at a gun range. President Obama still does not have the flag flying at half staff for him. But for Whitney Houston and Michael Jackson, he had the flag flying at half staff. What an insult for Chris Kyle who fought for our great country. What is President Obamaís excuse or lie for not doing this? He should correct this as soon as possible for Chris.

This is about the article that Mark Gibson is not going to run for another term on borough council. He said he feels he accomplished enough. What did he or anybody on borough council accomplish in this town? Nothing but higher taxes and less for your taxes. You get nothing in this town for your tax dollars. I am so glad I moved out of town. Everybody on borough council should not run for another term.

To the person complaining about people who donít sign their comments, whatís the difference if you leave a letter unsigned or if you use a fake name? Iím sure your birth certificate doesnít read, ďJohn from Mont Clare.Ē

Itís nice to have two televisions in the house. On Tuesday night we saw a dog-and-pony show on one channel (State of the Union address) and we saw the Westminster Dog Show, which was very good, on the other channel.

Iím calling about the comment made about a school bus driving going home to smoke and the children have to smell it when they get on. Iím a bus driver and I do not smoke. I canít tell you how many children get on the bus and smell like cigarette smoke. And no they are not all high school students. Many elementary children reek of smoke and Iím sure teachers could tell you the same thing.

If the cops are so worried about people when itís foggy to have their windshield wipers going and their lights on, the cops should practice what they preach. Iíve seen several cops already who donít obey the law. So if itís good for one, itís good for everybody.

I have a hospital bed free to anyone who could use it and itís in very good working condition. Call 610-327-0483.

For John From Mont Clare, my kids because of watching ďSesame StreetĒ could read, write and spell before even starting school. You can learn math and history from a book. And as far as science, turn on the TV and watch Bill Nye the science guy. You learn all the science you want. Try again.

To President Obama, if weíre living in the richest country in the world, why are you trying to take the benefits away or lower them for Medicare and Social Security and how can we afford a $9 an hour job?

The only reason teachers get degrees is to make more money. Try that out in the real world. The only way youíre going to make more money is to get hired. Either that or youíre going to sit in the mail room and stare at your degree on the wall at minimum wage. Come on John.

To the township police, why arenít you patrolling our areas when you know people are raising a ruckus in the neighborhood and then you go into hiding and you know who they are and youíre just trying to protect them?

I thought in order to vote in the U.S. you had to be a citizen, and if youíre a foreigner coming in, you have to learn English in order to become a citizen. Tuesday night much was made to do about nothing about a 103-year-old woman who had to wait to vote. The reason she had to wait to vote is they had to wait for an interpreter to come and speak to her in her native language even though sheís been in the U.S. since she was 78. Now where are the voter rights people?

This is for the person who said they donít make Hondas and Toyotas in this country. Youíd better get your facts straight. My brother and brother-in-law both work at two plants in this country.
