Senator smeared by ill-informed source
This is in reply to a letter from Worcester, “Kerry opponent listens to working man” (Telegram & Gazette, Aug. 28), that goes all over the map attempting to smear the good senator with junk possibly fed to him by an office kid or, possibly, the challenger himself.
Normally I would ignore such nonsense, but when a good person, a person of faith and of service, is smeared by such an ill-informed source, I cannot sit still.
I’m a World War II veteran and a bilateral amputee since 2001. I’m a certified peer visitor, trained to visit new, old, young and civilian and military amputees. My paths are crossed many times by Sen. John F. Kerry, who works hard for every veteran and working man who is in need. I thank the Lord for him — as many other men and women of the armed forces and citizens of our United States do.
In looking at the letter, I almost feel sorry for candidate Ed O’Reilly, unless he was the one who misguided the letter writer.
