Best Letter Today on Zita Wilensky

Charles J O'Connell sent the following e-mail to Miami Mayor Penelas today. I hope you enjoy his brief, yet eloquent, letter as much as I did:

I find it reprehensible that any organization, especially a government agency here in the United States would fire an employee for not learning a FOREIGN LANGUAGE at the demand of a supervisor! Having put my life on the line for this country while serving in the military, I can only ask, where is the loyalty of a supervisor who would commit such as outrageous act. Justice, fairness and patriotism demands that you see that Ms. Wilensky be reinstated and compensated; and that the supervisor be FIRED!
