I got another letter published. Guess which one is mine.

It isn't necessary to read the signature to know which letter was written by William Donahue Jr. It is obvious that the writer is a "professional victim".

Has it ever occurred to you that the prejudice is directed at the so called Religous Right? Of course conservative Catholics are included in this group, but it is not as exclusive as you think in your narrow minded way.

For an example of a more balanced letter:

"Rob Rogers and his ilk are so quick to criticize, mock and ridicule those with an opinion that differs from that of the politically correct minority. Wouldn't this be called hate speech if it were the other way around? I look forward to a cartoon by Rob Rogers that denounces those who exhibit intolerance for the conservative Christian viewpoint."

Now why don't you think this lady didn't write "anti-Protestant" anywhere in her letter?

Have you ever stopped to think there are many millions more conservative "Protestants" in this country than conservative "Catholics"?

Is that Browning guy anti-Protestant?

I'm not ignorant of this fact, Reggie, and I would hope that the other conservative Non-Catholics would take my letter not in the spirit of exclusion. I simply did not want to clutter up the thought by adding on additional phrases.

Santorum is a Catholic. He was attacked for his Catholic views. So I defended that in these terms. To use a term like "religious right" is overused. People need to hear what it really is.

Only cause you know me would you interpret this as an attack on other conservative religious folks.

Oh yeah, I did add that Santorum's view was "grounded in traditinoal morality." That's inclusive of all who hold such views. So there.
