I now believe that the only people with huevos are liberals who are defending their liberty and the Constitution and aren't afraid of the terrorists. The terrorists don't have an army like the Germans did. They can't occupy territory. All they can do is terrorize. And that's nothing. So why are conservatives so afraid of them that they're willing to give up fundamental liberties given us by the Constitution? Why are they so willing to put whole sections of the Constitution down the shredder? I can only conclude that they are afraid; they are wusses unable to confront the terrorists like men.

CRONE ALONE
Re: The letters under "Cronette Chronicles" in Reader Mail's Cap-and-Tirade:

Nicole Hollander, creator of the comic, "Sylvia," had a great discussion on the word crone a few years back. She came up with the definition, as voiced by Harry the bartender, of "crone- tribal wise woman, often quite attractive." I'll take it.
