"SNIP............


His letter was titled “My letters are so great,” and makes a tongue and cheek plea to make letters great again.

“I write fabulous letters,” Vaught wrote. “If you read all the letters I have written, you would agree. You would love them. Other letter writers are weak, soft and out of touch. I’m not like that, and I’m sure if you are reading this you aren’t either.

He continues, encouraging those who write letters to the editor to step up their game. “This paper really needs great letters, and I am awesome at letter writing,” he wrote.


As for those who write those lousy letters, Vaught dismisses them and their attacks. “Other letter writers might attack me, but then they go away. They don’t have what it takes to keep writing great letters. I have what it takes to write the best letters,” he declared. “Letter writers who disagree need to be punched in the face and run out of town.”

Vought was confident that his letter would be selected because true excellence demands it. “I guarantee this letter will be picked as the letter of the month. If it isn’t picked, it will prove that this letter writing contest is rigged.”
