Mayor should face truth on Obama, Wright

Your paper ran another piece this week regarding Rahm Emanuel’s refusal to meet with the Ricketts family to discuss changes at Wrigley Field.

This refusal is based on the political leanings of the elder Mr. Ricketts. He was part of a plan to run TV commercials highlighting Mr. Obama’s relationship with the radical preacher Mr. Wright. This is the man who during a sermon cursed the United States.

To the mayor, let me say that Obama has never been called to task for this relationship and he has never offered one word of regret. The truth hurts and Rahm, you need to act like an adult instead of a petulant liberal Democrat.
