Seven, I don't trust this Saudi dude for one second!! WHY would he turn himself in?????
I finally saw enough red to write to a newspaper columnist. Here's my letter to Richard Leiby (leibyr@washpost.com):
Based totally on your Thursday, July 15, 2004 column ("Jenna: Mom's Record Collection Rocks" / http://www.wasingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A50071-2004Jul14.html ), I can reach no other conclusion from that one incident but that you, sir, are a pompous blowhard.
I'm confident that reference to you is far closer to how "the heart and soul of America" feels about insults to our president and his family than do the vulgarities uttered by the Hollywood crowd.
First your column has your totally unneccessary "no tabloid shots of boozy, dirty dancing here" reference about President and Laura Bush's daughters. (Do you include likewise comments about Chelsea's and Kerry's daughter's scantily clad European appearances when you write about their families? ... Even better would be if, instead of trying to create scandal where there is none, you and your paper's time would be better spent checking military statistics to see how many others not on a stretcher for their Purple Heart/s were able to leave Viet Nam after only three to four months of "service.")
Then, you yourself illustrated the huge difference between Dennis Miller's introduction of President Bush and Whoopi's tirade: You could quote Miller!
To suggest that Miller's introduction required more mention than a thank you is deceitful, and you know it.
You should be ashamed. But, I doubt you are. Your type never is.
Kathy, here's a poem you might recognize...a beautiful combination of words we can all enjoy tonight.
High Flight was composed by Pilot Officer John Gillespie Magee, Jr., an American serving with the Royal Canadian Air Force. He was born in Shanghai, China in 1922, the son of missionary parents, Reverend and Mrs. John Gillespie Magee; his father was an American and his mother was originally a British citizen.
He came to the U.S. in 1939 and earned a scholarship to Yale, but in September 1940 he enlisted in the RCAF and was graduated as a pilot. He was sent to England for combat duty in July 1941.
In August or September 1941, Pilot Officer Magee composed High Flight and sent a copy to his parents. Several months later, on December 11, 1941 his Spitfire collided with another plane over England and Magee, only 19 years of age, crashed to his death.
His remains are buried in the churchyard cemetery at Scopwick, Lincolnshire.
