Letter: Liberals, practice what you preach

Liberals childishly call people names and then complain when someone tries to defend themselves from character assassination. They need to quit being hypocritical by not giving equal blame to those who are forced to defend themselves.

Chuck Schierloh, a liberal appointee of Berger, initially tried through a Lima News letter to the editor to character assassinate Keith Cheney and is the person Bill Moore should be chastising, not me.

All I did was defend the falsely accused.

In Moore’s recent letter to the editor, he used a spin tactic to defame me by saying that, as a teacher, I should not lower myself to name calling and should set a better example for students.

First of all, I did not personally use the word Booger to describe Berger’s supporters. I was quoting a blog that someone else had used in order to show the type of response Schierloh’s letter was evoking. Yet, Bill Moore just had to lower himself to publicly chasatise me.

Here is his sermon: “It is my hope that our citizens will not let this contest degrade to the extent that our recent national election had. In a recent letter in The Lima News, the term ‘Booger’ was used to describe Mayor Berger’s supporters. This is a term of disrespect, and should not have been used, especially by a ‘teacher.’ Let’s keep our comments, from both sides, above board in this most important election. We must show everyone that Lima is better than that.”

Bill needs to practice what he preaches.

Tom Riegle,
