Oh, look. Yet another bizarre, ranting letter from Lewiston Mayor Robert Macdonald attacking the people he is supposed to serve (Jan. 19).
If he can’t bear being in the public eye, in both positive and negative lights, then he should not have sought elected office. The same goes for Gov. Paul LePage, with his distress about being followed to public events by a Democrat with a video camera.
It is also regrettable that the mayor of Lewiston cannot even write a grammatical sentence. The opening line in his letter, “In response to Rachel Lowe’s guest column Dec. 30, ‘Set policy based on fact, not rhetoric,’ is to say, look who is calling the kettle back” demonstrates this. This is how people see Mayor Macdonald. He may be angry, but ought to pause to consider before firing off a hasty attack.
On many occasions, Mayor Macdonald has condemned the uneducated as a burden to society. However, as he illustrates, it is not the uneducated who are the problem. It’s the willfully ignorant.
