To the Editor:

I think we owe the Republican business owners who’ve been writing to the newspaper a great shout of thanks for waking us up. I personally feel I owe the entire nation an apology for how much help I’ve received in my life.

I actually had teachers who educated me. I’ve needed medical care, and you know what? I didn’t do the operation myself. I’ve had other people keep me healthy and care for me. And some of them needed help to attend school.
