RE: “Call It What It Really Is” – A word or two about your column today that says “right-wing terrorists” are the source of evil, all evil, in the modern world. Plus, it doesn’t take a huge leap of faith to see the connection between “right-wing terrorism” and teenage bullying, polar bear drownings, the brutal drought, and the continuing baffling success of Chick-fil-a.
Mr. Pitts,
If, as you enumerate not quite in its entirety, dead people are more dead when they are shot by “right-wing terrorists”, which pew of the Church of Ayn Rand would you put Lee Harvey Oswald in?
Would Sirhan Sirhan be an usher, an elder, or an elder castrati cum usher in the choir at the same church?
I will stipulate that the statute of limitations has run on the cases of McKinley, Garfield, Lincoln, Julius Caesar, Socrates, and the Cain/Abel dustup. It doesn’t mean that you can’t stop thinking about yesterday. Didn’t “right-wing terrorists” do Hector in?
Jared Loughner, the snakes for brains wing-nut who lit up the Tucson mall when he shot a bunch of people including Congresswoman Giffords, had six weeks of Thorazine enemas, Prozac bran muffins, and a perpetual Ritalin/Dilantin IV before he could stand before a Federal Judge without evacuating both bowel and bladder through his ears and plead guilty to these murders most foul. Was he a member of the Robert Byrd Memorial KuKluxKlanKlavern or was he a lone wolf “right-wing terrorist”?
The bug-eyed Army shrink who was yelling Allah Akbar when he shot a baker’s dozen of his fellow soldiers was a mind numbed robot who danced, shot, and killed those infidels while dancing to a diabolic tune set down by Rush Limbaugh, right? Maybe it was Glenn Beck. Maybe Alan West.
Your “Eclectic indignation”, a condition that enables you to tip-toe blindfolded through the mine fields of facts contra your thesis, a condition that demands that a 1000 voice chorus follow you intoning “You are a horse’s ass” is, a mental disorder requires constant dunking and eternal pelting with flaming bags of flaming cat scat, doesn’t preclude me from seeking your help about the assassination attempt on President Reagan.
Did the scoundrels who blew up the World Trade Center do it?

I recently read your editorial in my local paper, The Fresno Bee. Thank you for your calling the Republicans on their selfish Anti-American(in my opinion)view of our country. Their biased, self-serving ego driven politics serve only to minimize and distract us from what we really need to do is disturbing. Instead of becoming a team and serving the drastic needs in this country, they are totally focused destroying the Democrats while ignoring the needs of the Country as a whole. The Republicans are the ones that need to be held accountable. They are the ones that got us there in the first place. The really sad part is that this uninformed Country and in particular, the Republicans have focused totally on ignoring their own shortcomings and place the blame on everyone else. There is enough blame for all to share. How about some honesty, integrity, and a real commitment to solving the current problems. How Revolutionary!!!!!
