Romney slight inappropriate

This is a comment voicing my disappointment that The Spokesman-Review felt fit to print the letter submitted by Mike Dambra in the Aug. 22 letters. His description of Mitt Romney’s mouth and “butt” was uncalled for, and to me reflects on the character of Dambra.

We may disagree with Romney’s position on the issues facing the nation, but he is not a “sleazy” politician as Dambra would have you believe.

Once again, I am very disappointed in your decision to publish the letter.
