p> THE TWO AMERICAS br> Re: The American Spectator : /p> p>I read the articles each day on TAS but it's the letters that I enjoy most. It's good to see the differing viewpoints to some of the articles and it gives me something to ponder about also. Of course, I have my own distinct opinions about things but ever once in a while, a letter or two will make a point that will change that opinion some. This give and take, this edifying of points, this open discussion of issues, is what gives us the edge over the liberals every time, because we don't indulge in profane name calling or end of the world histrionics, but logical, spirited, representation of fact backed with opinion. This is true democracy in action and the real meaning of freedom of the press. br> -- Pete Chagnon /p> p> Mine is but one opinion, but wow, do your writers ever offer their own. For a group that consistently paints the left as a bunch of whining crybabies, I can't believe the nonsense I have read on your website. For years conservatives have accused the press at large of being of liberal persuasion and non-objective. At least you all are blatant in your lack of objectivity. Good to see you all are making great strides in bringing back respectability to the press. br> -- Gustavo Lizarranga
