Letter: Advocate is fair, balanced

September 08, 2009

Dear Editor,

A few random thoughts while I still have the freedom to express them publicly, a freedom that I suspect will disappear in a few years.

A recent writer referred to The Advocate-Messenger as a right-wing rag. In my opinion, the Advocate is the only fair and balanced newspaper in central Kentucky — possibly the whole state. If the writer wants a left-wing rag, he has the Lexington Herald and the Courier Journal.

The Liberal Socialist Party, (a.k.a. Democrats), seems so intent on destroying the Republican Party, they either don't know or care that they are destroying our beloved country also. Why are they shedding so many crocodile tears for the terrorist detainees? These people are murderous killers that would cut our throats in a nano-second. If waterboarding them is against the law, we need to change the law, not prosecute those who were working to defend us and have for eight years. Do I need to remind you what they do to their prisoners? I am not suggesting that we descend to their level, but neither do we need to treat them like guests.

The present administration seems intent on revealing our intelligence capabilities to the enemy and destroying the CIA. This surely gives aid and comfort to the enemy. What if some future conservative administration decides to investigate and try the current administration for treason? Giving aid and comfort to the enemy is a treasonable offense.
