Letter: That bugs me

Editor, Daily News:

Shame on the Daily News for publishing Barry Willoughby's ugly, mean-spirited personal attack letter on John Riccio, a local hero and strong supporter of our troops.

Willoughby's vicious language, obviously fueled by a sense of impotence over his party's total incompetence and failures, passed a line that I thought the Daily News had drawn.

Willoughby's reference to cockroaches in his letter was ironic. Cockroaches run for cover when the light hits them.

A lot of conservative cockroaches have taken cover in recent years, since the light of truth has been shone on the miserable, pathetic, unbelievably inept performances of virtually every government department touched by this unfit-for-office bunch of clowns.

Willoughby would do well to try not to embarrass himself anymore by trying to defend the indefensible.
