They published my LTTE in re Rove today
Edited on Sat Jul-16-05 08:53 AM by greekspeak
The Tallahassee Democrat apparently just publishes what they recieve without notifying you about it. So I wake up to two terse e-mails, one with a link to FR, the other with an obfuscation attempt. I laughed and did not take the bait. Here is a link to my letter. I can hardly wait to see what kind of threats I get today!

2. Yeah...I am really pissed about that. I am used to a paper following up
I have not published a LTTE since I moved here. In the town where I lived before, they called your home and spoke with you and verified it. You were not even allowed to use a pseudonym. And they did not publish email addy's in the paper. I was expecting they would actually ask me before they gave the nutcases access to my personal information.

3. Great Letter
I don't see where you did anything wrong. Only the brownshirts will take that wrong.
Hateful bastards will go so far as to support treason.

5. The right wingnut letter repeats the same old tired RNC talking points
I wonder how many of that form letter the paper got.

Your letter was really good with the 'slash and burn' metaphor.

I am Greekspeak's partner...we would appreciate it if you would delete the link since it has his e-mail address posted in it.

Thanks!

I was really stupid this morning and reacted to this far too soon after having arisen.

19. Link to a draft of the letter as I posted it on DU a few days ago
Pretty much the same as what you would see in the paper, maybe not as prettied up.
