Great letter to the editor!
From today's edition of my hometown paper (I can't bring myself to call it a newspaper), the Hartford Courant:

Bring 'Em On?

Last week, President Bush dared those who are attacking U.S. troops in Iraq to "bring 'em on." Bring 'em on? Our front-line soldiers, who are doing the dirty work and putting their personal you-know-whats on the line, can, if they choose, make those types of statements. Draft-evading, privileged, protected milksops have no such right.

1. I hope every paper in the country had such a letter!
Geez, I'm still shocked that the imbecile said that. Not really, I guess. Amazed is more like it.

Nice letter!

3. I just wonder how many Americans feel exactly the same way?
It must be tens of millions and growing every day!
