I read Craig Groshart’s column about the continuing insults aimed at Sarah Palin. The article echoed my exact sentiments.

Since the election, the press just won’t leave her alone. And yes, it’s cruel, mean spirited, immature, and unprofessional.

I have thought about this all week. Even though I voted the other ticket, I feel this cruelty needs to stop. It’s time for everyone to let go of it and start acting like responsible adults.

We teach our children to show kindness, respect and consideration for our fellow citizens, so we adults should be doing the same.
