Letter: Can my mom speak up for me?

(Al Hartmann | Tribune file photo) Greg Hughes, takes the oath of office to become the next speaker of the Utah House of Representatives at the start of the 2015 legislative session Jan 26, 2015. His wife, Krista, watches.

Having just read Krista Hughes’ Oct. 27 rebuttal to George Pyle’s Oct. 13 commentary about former Utah House Speaker Greg Hughes, I kept looking for a credential other than sharing the same last name.

At the end, as I feared, that credential is not a semi-independent expert opinion. She is his wife.

I'm gonna up the ante just a hair. Should I be so unlucky as to be the subject of one of your columns, can my mother write the rebuttal?
