Letter to the editor:

Goodman has no reason to be so sensitive

Las Vegas Mayor Oscar Goodman’s sensitivities about President Barack Obama’s statement this week are absolutely absurd. Obama doesn’t owe anyone, especially not Las Vegas or Goodman, an apology for his comment.

Obama wasn’t demonizing the city but simply stating a fact that companies receiving bailout money should not be using it to enhance their pleasures and good times. Using our money to get their kicks and jollies is not the objective of Obama and his administration.
