My letter to Mark Travis:

Your cheap tactic of allowing the completely offensive "Bush into The WTC" 'cartoon' by Mike Marland and then 'apologizing for it was a classic of Left Wing extremist double think and hypocrisy. You were more than happy to smear President Bush with the obscenity you called a cartoon. Then, just like your role model Clinton, attempted to deceive the public by performing a public act of 'contrition'.

It won't wash.

You deliberately smeared Bush. You know that your self-serving 'apology' is meaningless. The damage has been done. Your credibility has been reduce to less than zero, notwithstanding your pathetic attempt to excuse your perfidy.

You represent the lowest excrement scum in the septic tank known as the Liberal school of 'thought'.

Here's the e-mail I sent regarding my opinion of the "apology":

Sir:

My husband and I read with great interest your "apology" for the scurrilous, hate-filled political cartoon that you published.

Your initial poor judgment is only superseded by your current arrogance and Mr. Marland's mean-spiritedness - this was not an apology to anyone. You are only "sorry" for your "mistake" because of the national outrage that was sparked by your tastelessness. I'm sure you are aware by now that you are the object of ridicule and disgust throughout the nation.

You didn't even have the decency in your non-apology to refer to President Bush by his title - you called him "George Bush" , then merely "Bush". You never once referred to him as President Bush. Your choice of terminology speaks volumes.

I live in California, so I have no idea whether or not people actually pay for your fishwrap birdcage-liner, or if people can just pick it up as a freebie outside supermarkets. However your screed is distributed, it's a waste of time, energy, and effort.

I wonder if Mike Pride didn't all ready have a standard "apology" editorial already written up, and maybe modified it a little bit to suit current needs. It sure seems to be a canned apology.
