Getting to be a prolific little LTTE bast - - d - Akron Beacon Journal
Third letter down. Mine.

http://www.ohio.com/mld/beaconjournal/news/editorial/6782981.htm

For those keeping score at home, here's the original (note: Slight modification):

"I would like to commend the Police who were assigned to Richfield during the visit by George W. Bush. It must grate on the Police union to have to do their duty to a party who tries to bust unions.

They did a fine job, and, as hard as it is for the Bush backers to believe, we Bush protesters actually have a lot of respect for the law and the enforcers of it.

I found it amusing that one "resident" went on a local news station and complained that there were a huge number of non-Richfield residents who decided to voice their (non-popular) opinion of the current resident of the White House. By her own logic, I would guess that twelve people should have been allowed the "honor" of attending Bush's speech, since I am not sure how many of the people who work there actually live in Richfield.

It's also a shame that the newsman focusing on her did not film her earlier showing her "family values" whilst giving the protesters the middle finger right in front of the children she apparently is concerned about."

2. Well done!
That woman ran pretty fast after I brought up the 'family values' card.

3. Damn 30 day rule.
I'd be even more printed if they didn't limit you to 1 letter printed every 30 days.

Of course, eliminating that would allow the same 7 people to complain daily about the "liberal media".

4. I sent a pissy 9/11 LTTE to the PD and they did not run it
Is it bad form to call the Resident a liar?
