Life, the War in Iraq and Gonzales
My last three letters to the Boston Globe and one I sent to the Wall Street Journal:
Editor,
So as to hopefully get their attention, I'll put the impact of Wednesday's U.S. Supreme Court ruling into a number that liberal extremists claim to understand: the banning of partial birth abortion will save at least the lives of 3,000 babies each year as this is the low end of the estimated 3,000 - 5,000 babies that were annually killed by this gruesome and barbaric method (High court upholds ban on abortion procedure, April 19, A1).
Further, we can only hope the will of the people, as the ban was approved by the U.S. Senate 64 - 34, the U.S. House 281 - 142, and signed by a popularly elected President who campaigned on a "culture of life" platform, will continue to eradicate the plague on our society - abortion - that kills 3,000 unborn, innocent, human lives every day. (End of the first letter.)
The second letter should be a stand-alone post but there is just too much going on to do so. I've written it 20 times if I've written once: the 2006 elections were not what cut-and-run Democrats claim. Well, now, because they're in the propaganda game, the Boston Globe agrees with me. People can now see for themselves, the liberal media will always claim election results represent exactly what the liberal media wants election results to represent. Anyway, the second letter:
Editor,
Your own Ms. Susan Milligan debunks your ridiculous claim that, "Iraq wasn't the only factor that decided congressional races last fall; embryonic stem cell research was a major issue, too (Sign the stem cell bill, April 15, D8)."
In Ms. Milligan's April 7 article, "Conservative activists fear war dwarfing social agenda", she notes that healthcare, the economy, immigration, terrorism, and the environment all polled ahead of stem cell research as issues important to all voters, conservative, independent and liberal!
My goodness, what won't the Boston Globe claim was a factor in the 2006 elections as long as it is politically convenient?
Anyway, I hope we've seen the last of unchallenged quotes by cut-and-run Democrats and compliant, liberal commentators who have demonstrated they can parrot the Democratic Party's talking points and little else, that the November elections were a mandate to surrender in Iraq. (End of the second letter.)
Editor,
When it was politically convenient to believe the words of a former aide of U.S. Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales in order to trash Mr. Gonzales and the Bush Administration, Senate Democrats and the Boston Globe did (Ex-aide contradicts Gonzales on firings; March 30; A1, above the fold).
Two weeks later, when it was politically convenient to not believe the words of the same aide to trash Mr. Gonzales and the Bush Administration, Senate Democrats and the Boston Globe did (Testimony of ex-aide to Gonzales questioned; April 14; A1; above the fold).
This is called “politics” for the Senate Democrats: touché and bully for them.
This is also called “liberal bias” in the media: shame on them. (End of third letter.)
An apology to U.S. Attorney General Alberto Gonzales for all my past posts where I spelled his name with a "z" and not an "s". Of course, I'm disappointed none of my readers called me on it.
Finally, you do not have to be wordy to be brilliant.
Editor,
Elections matter (Ruling to Shift Abortion Fight, A4, April 19, 2007)! (End of Wall Street Journal letter.)
Two words! If published, it will be the shortest letter in WSJ history. I asked that the Letters Editor let readers know that "the letter writer is Pro-Life".

For the WSJ letter, it was a good thing you indicated your pro-life POV because that 2 word letter could have easily been written by someone who was pro-choice. (But, of course you knew that)
BTW,I would have called you on the "Gonzalez" misspelling but didn't you ask us readers a long time ago not to notice such errors including grammar/usage by you or other commenters? That being said, for the WSJ letter, I would have put the exclamation point after the word "matters"- Visually, it gives the message a little more punch.
will there ever be a new post?
anonymous,
Yes. I business-traveled earlier this week to Las Vegas. This put me behind a few days.
As you were typing your question, I was gathering the details I needed for my next post . . . which I hope to put up this afternoon.
