TimesDaily is guilty too

In the Feb. 6 editorial the TimesDaily criticized the Lauderdale County High School football coach for making "shocking and repulsive" statements regarding Michelle Obama, gays and the first black U.S. president's campaign slogan, "change."

You were correct in your criticism. However, next to your editorial the TimesDaily sponsored a cartoon referring to a Vietnam war hero and current U.S. senator as an "old nag." Sen. John McCain's name was even branded on the rear end of a broken down horse.

It seems the TimesDaily is also guilty of perpetuating a climate of disrespect.
