Letter to the editor

Mr. Maharry,

First of all, you are so far left that you can't be seen with binoculars. You interviewed Mrs. Freese and Mrs. Kopsa this past summer.  During that interview you, Mrs. Freese, and Mrs. Kopsa thought it funny to call our Grundy County farmers "old fart farmers.”
 
It is my impression by making that statement Grundy County Democrats have joined those Democrats across the nation that believe that verbal intimidation, bordering on harassment, is appropriate in expressing their opinions. This interview clearly demonstrates the lack of knowledge concerning the percentage of voters you have impacted, i.e. not only the "old fart farmers,” but also those associated with the farming occupation -- grain elevator personnel, implement dealers, manufacturers of agriculture related products, and FFA members.
 

As we approach our right to vote, I would encourage all eligible voters to make your way to the voting booth and support the best candidate for election to office.  I personally would like to know that I voted for a candidate that respects my self-worth, vocation, and values.  Thank you Annette Sweeney for being that candidate.
