At his invitation I re-read Jim Gries' letter twice with my reading glasses to make sure I didn't miss a punctuation mark which may have slanted my interpretation of his context. I still found it arrogant and insulting and pointedly left leaning. Picture this, Jim, me standing here with my right hand raised and my left hand on the Bible and my swearing that I haven't listened to Rush Limbaugh, Kieth Oberman or Chris Matthews once in the last six or seven years and I never even heard of "Local Bob" whoever he is. I confess I have watched the Sean Hannity TV show two or three times in the last five years, and you are right ... he is a screechingly repetitious bloviator, but amazingly, listening to him did not cause my gray matter to turn into a gelatinous blob and come oozing out of my cranial orifaces!

It's just not the same. The Olympics I mean. I remember the first Olympics I saw on the television - the 1964 Summer Olympics from Japan. There were Bob Hayes, the World's Fastest Human, and Joe Frazier, the young boxer. My dad, an Air Force officer, taught me to root against the Russians, East Germans and any Soviet bloc country because they were "commies." These were the countries that wanted America to fail, he said. They hated the way we flaunted our freedom, our capitalist ways and the way we want others to be more like us. Don't be mad at the athletes, just their governments, he said. ...more

This had to be Richard Gonzmart's mother of all Capt. Renault's "I'm shocked, shocked to find out that gambling is going on in here!" moments. ...more
