Here in Lakeland, FL, we vote conservative but have for a newspaper a liberal rag owned & run by the NYT.
There are letters to the editor daily and several columns a week that are just like this. There is so much hate oozing through the words, I believe that if Bush said 12 pm was noon, they would demand proof.
Which is funny, because BC could claim the sky was green and would not get called on it.
People see and hear what they want to see and hear.
My area votes Republican/conservative,but our paper was taken over some years ago by new owners and a new editor and has been a commie liberal pink mullet wrapper ever since. We cancelled a couple of years ago. I think all the new people,from out of the state to work in the casinos,must be their primary source of subscribers,except for the few remaining old-timers left who still buy it for the obituaries. They'll all be gone soon.
Thankfully,there must be something in the air here-the "new people" must get converted after moving here,because we're still predominately Republican and conservative.
