Re: "Casting stones at our leaders", "Lamentable line-up: Is this the best the US can offer?" Letters, October 24.
Regarding Stephff’s portrayals of PM Yingluck, it is part of a cartoonist’s job to poke fun at people in power. Cartoons are supposed to make us laugh. It’s up to the news columns to provide the facts.
Regarding the Republican presidential line-up, I too am appalled. But hey: Why would anybody with half a brain want this job? Obama walked into it having been dealt a bad hand, and the next sucker will be dealt a worse one.
