The Mercury’s Sound Off for Thursday, Sept. 21

by for medianews group

A recent Sound Off post stated that Owen J. Roberts School District does not accept cash for admission to football games. I understand that cash can be a problem to deal with, but how can this be legal? Every paper bill states “This note is legal tender for all debts public and private.”

I can’t tell if Charlie is being sarcastic or if he’s actually been living under a rock for the past 30 months. Joe Biden decimated US oil/gas production beginning on his first day in office. That’s why America is buying oil from the Saudis and Russia. That’s why our gas prices are double what they were under Trump. Yup, Biden’s doing a great job making America energy-dependent again. God Save the Queen!

Is Fettermanism contagious? Until elected Lt. Governor, the primary source of income for John Fetterman was wealthy parents. As the part-time mayor of a small township (Braddock – current population: 1,700) that declined significantly on his watch, he drew a reported salary of $150 per month. In a state already unattractive to business investment, his fellow Democrats in our legislature have determined a 40-hr. workweek to be excessive. Their preference? 32.

Kudos to The Mercury for running concurrent commentaries in Saturday’s edition on the Biden Impeachment Inquiry. Marc Thiessen presented a professionally done, objective piece with his usual journalistic integrity; his counterpart S.E. Cupp presented her typical venomous attack on anything Republican. With all the irrefutable evidence that justifies at least an inquiry into Biden’s dealings, she showed her true colors as nothing more than an attack dog and political activist for the Democratic Party.

An egotist is a conceited jerk who thinks he knows as much as I do.

Bill Wilson


Don’t need Hannity to say distrust the FBI! Just pay attention, you will not trust the FBI or letter federal agency! Congress ordered Hillary Clinton to preserve 30,000+ emails, secure all devices! Hillary runs emails thru “Bleach Bit” and destroys devices with hammers! FBI director says Hillary “made a mistake used bad judgment”! Biden sicks FBI on parents at school board meetings! FBI is corrupted!

Just the facts!


Here is a quote from Matt Dorr, Perkiomen Valley School Board member as one of his reasons to support a bathroom ban: “Boys are dumb.” He is running for reelection as a radical Republican. You really have terrible candidates.

Hunter Biden is suing the IRS because he claims his tax information was shared publicly. I guess it’s OK that the Democrats can disclose Donald Trump’s tax information publicly, but don’t dare do the same to the son of the head of the Biden Family Crime Syndicate. Just another example of the Democrat’s two-tier justice system. We’ve got quite the dictatorship growing here!

Little Joe


I’m expecting the NRA and gun nuts everywhere to give Hunter Biden full-throated support for his simple-minded gun problem. If the gun kooks can support gun owners who abuse women repeatedly, why can’t the average citizen buy a gun? Will right-wing hypocrisy ever stop? I don’t think so. Biden for President!

Lefty


Four Republican senators are urging President Biden to move more quickly with his plans to provide long-range missiles to Ukraine. Apparently, Biden is not escalating our involvement in this war fast enough for them.

Robert Minninger


Let’s see if we can explain this. There is a company executive who is fired. He refuses to leave the office. He calls his friends to come and vandalize the workplace. On his way out, he steals the company’s confidential documents. He refuses to give them back. Next thing you know, he reapplies for his old job. Explain this to me.

Jay Miller


Looks like another installment of “stinking thinking” by Lefty, and the Biden boneheads. He thinks taking guns from law-abiding citizens trying to protect their homes from illegal aliens, and escaped prisoners is a great idea. This is the usual liberal idea of prosecuting the innocent and releasing criminals.”Duh.” On a different subject, MCCC theater with mixing console (only $196,500) courtesy of taxpayers’ property taxes.

Truth Be Told


John Fetterman, what a loser! Glad to see the Democrats are doing all they can to highlight their unserious and disrespectful attitude against the American people and denigrate their jobs as public servants. No wonder decent people are leaving the Democrat party in droves.

Lumpy


If you want to go through again what all Chester County residents went through with school lockdowns or closures and everyone being afraid to go outside, especially if you had woods behind your house … keep voting for Democrats and their open border policy. This guy certainly wasn’t seeking asylum, he was running from authorities in Brazil for another murder and has been here illegally for years!

Dot


Throughout Covid-19 we saw consensus-based-medicine (CBM) masquerading as evidence-based medicine (EBM) be forced upon America and opened our eyes to why EBM is so important in medical practice. CBM is why doctors were not allowed to use protocols they knew that worked to keep patients alive but instead were forced to use protocols by corrupt committees that killed thousands and created the need for a vaccine that canceled doctors who challenged it.

Med Tech


Commenters complain about the “hate” expressed for Trump. We just demand accountability for the crimes Trump committed, for which there is plenty of evidence. I see an endless barrage of hate for the Bidens, Harris, and all the evil, socialist Dems “destroying” America. The majority of Americans think you’re lunatics, brainwashed by a far-right seeking total control, legally or illegally. This country doesn’t belong just to them or you, like it or not.


The Democrats have warned Republicans that it’s going to take a lot more than eyewitness testimony, bank records, audio recordings, sworn testimonies and confessions for them to believe Joe Biden did anything wrong.

The Snarky Conservative


Now that the Senate has relaxed the dress code, can we expect President Biden to show up at the “State of the Union” address in his pajamas?
