THE SOUTHERN
STOOGES
Re: Paul Chesser’s Counting the
Costs:
The other Republicans should have followed the lead of Perry and
Jindal and saved their state budgets the expense of this wasteful
trip. Democrats who preach about global warming and reducing
“carbon footprints” are the most wasteful of our political class.
As for Kaine, who cares what this stooge thinks? Hopefully, in
this year’s election Virginia will elect an adult instead of
adolescent as Governor.

NOT SO FICTION
Re: Larry Thornberry’s Her
Name Was Trixie:
No offense, but Dean Koontz has written at least three other
non-fiction books that I know of — two “how to write” books and
a memoir. There might be others I’m not aware of, but I know for
sure of these three.

Dear Ira:
Inasmuch as you're a much respected member of the "panel," perhaps you might inquire as to why my delightful, Fun-Loving husband (frost) has been 86'd from these pages. He really doesn't care too awfully much, but it would seem contrary to the vision (if, indeed, one exists) of TAS. And, although an admitted boat-rocker and/or thought-provoker, he's still kind of cute.

Ms. Wife,
I am not aware of any criteria for posting. Frost is a wild one, but he is not disrespectful. His opinions are not always favored but ejecting him from this party? Color me suspect but alarmed.
Maybe the guardian of the gates can clarify this.
Ira
