Another hate-filled letter

I just read the letter by Tony Moschetti (''Liberals sink to new lows with revisionist thinking,'' Aug. 10) and, as always, his letter was full of hatred and vindictiveness. Moschetti believes that the media and any individual who dares to think a liberal thought should be destroyed.

His letter raved about those who dare print or speak about the latest controversy regarding the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan. While I believe it was the right thing to have done, I respect those who present the facts (something Moschetti disregards) as to the history behind the decision. We now learn that many of the leaders of that time did not believe it was necessary. I saw every documentary and read much this month on the subject and thought it was presented fairly.

It is always a black-and-white situation with Moschetti, liberals versus conservatives. There can never be a middle ground. His hatred for those who think differently is beyond that of a rational thinking person. I have read his stupid letters for many years and have never found a sane thought in any of them. Even the most hardened conservative will not use the vile language, much less the reasoning process, he does.

On leaving this subject, I would leave Moschetti with two words, but unfortunately the paper will not print them. I leave it to Moschetti to fill in the blanks. With his depraved mind, I'm sure he can think of many. It should keep him busy for a long time.
