Apologize to Rienbeck ~ Letter

TUESDAY, AUGUST 25, 2009

Letter to the editor WDT
Finally, John Byrne's recording of town of Cape Vincent meetings is of some value. The taping of the last board meeting on Aug. 13 shows what our elected officials have to endure to do the job they were elected to do, and it is my opinion that they are doing just that despite the harassment they are given.

If you go to Newzjunky and click on Cape Vincent Town Meeting, then listen for the loudest voice on the tape. It is the voice of Tom Gormel, launching an unprovoked, uncalled for and very unprofessional verbal attack on Supervisor Thomas Rienbeck.

Then read the Aug. 11 letter in this paper captioned "Cape supervisor wrong to stop videotaping," written by the same Tom Gormel.

I suggest it is Mr. Gormel who owes our town supervisor a public apology.
