Accusations Fail to Impress Reader
Letter to the editor

Cathy Schlicht’s letters are often interesting but I’m wondering why her rant was even considered for publication in last week’s Saddleback Valley News. Surely she can think of a more positive way to promote her candidates, Diane Greenwood, Bill Barker and Justin McCusker, than by making fictitious accusations and filing a false police report. Assigning guilt by association and demanding recompense was beyond the pale, and dressing up such nonsense in estimable references only added insult to injury.

I hope the Saddleback Valley News editors will be more thoughtful and consider the consequences before printing another of Cathy’s politically motivated diatribes and that Miss Schlicht will find a more appropriate avenue to express her creativity.
