  • Letters to the editor - 12-2

    To the editor:

    Karen Richardson’s lengthy letter to the editor [Obama’s strategy must be stopped] in last week’s paper consisted of 18 paragraphs of statements and opinions without referencing one specific supportable fact.

    Thursday is Thanksgiving and I have a lot to be thankful for this year.
