Adventures in Idiocy: Worst Letters to the Editor from the Holiday Weekend (Pt. 4 of 4)

Adventures in Idiocy: Worst Letters to the Editor from the Holiday Weekend (Pt. 3 of 4)

So...uh...Sunday's paper?  There weren't actually any terrible letters to the editor. I know! Seriously, I'm as shocked as you are. In place of a Sunday letter, I'll just link to the November 11, 2010, Adventures in Idiocy that I wrote.
