Scott showed poor judgement
To the editor:
I want to protest most strenuously Michael JOSEPH Scott’s use of Barack Obama’s middle name at the Sarah HEATH rally last week. Obama has enough name recognition that the use of his middle name was gratuitous.
Despite Michael JOSEPH Scott’s claim that it was an expression of free speech, it is obvious to all thinking people that it was at least an attempt to ridicule and at worst an attempt to instill distrust or even fear — a typical Republican tactic. If what he claims is accurate, why not be consistent and refer to John SIDNEY McCain and Sarah HEATH Palin?
The blatant abuse of his office to support his own personal political choices was also reprehensible if not outright unlawful. That is for others to decide.
Michael JOSEPH Scott was a man I had planned on voting for as I admired his work ethic.
