Letters

—Jason Ginsburg

DEAR EDITOR:

I’m sure John Seeley has his grievances against President Bush, but to label him “Stupid George” and “President Jackass” seriously undermines his credibility as a journalist. If he could replace his juvenile name calling with some original thought and insight, then maybe he could regain some journalistic integrity.

—Shawn Walker
Venice

DEAR EDITOR:

All the votes were counted, whatever Jesse Jackass says about it. Why don’t you check into all the Democratic vote fraud, e.g., manufactured votes, rigged chads, illegal immigrants, deceased votes, etc.? Afraid of the truth?

—Mark Jansen
Miami, Florida

DEAR EDITOR:

The American people need to serve Bush with an eviction notice. Anybody else would be convicted of receiving stolen property.

—Valderine Zudell
Old Town, Florida

DEAR EDITOR:

First of all, Bush won the election. Gore tried to steal it with 200 trial lawyers. Bush has accomplished more in his first week than Clinton did in eight years. Say goodbye to scorched-earth politics. If you libs didn’t keep racism alive, you would lose your base.

—Laura Noel
Oakville, Connecticut

DEAR EDITOR:

Actually, Bush won the popular vote:

• 2,000,000 national absentee ballots were never counted;

• 14,000 Democrats registered and voted in both Florida and New York City;

• 2,000 military absentee ballots were never counted in Florida;

• plus, if you take away all the dead Democrats who voted, that gives Bush about a 5,000,000-vote lead.

Nice try, you dopes.

DEIRDRE R.I.P.

DEAR EDITOR:

Props to Robert Lloyd and his “Deirdre O’Donoghue, 1946–2001” [obituary, February 2–8]. I remember listening to her in Boston and was happy to know that she was in my new city of Los Angeles when I moved here in 1986. Mr. Lloyd summed up how I felt when I would hear her voice across my radio. There was a lot of love and respect in her tone, and it was a privilege to be a part of her experience.

STAR-CROSSED

DEAR EDITOR:

Rockie Gardiner has mentioned several times in her astrology column about the 20-year presidential-assassination cycle. Many are aware of this cycle. You are doing no one favors by broadcasting this, as many crazies have access to the Web and your site. Please do the president and the United States a favor by not mentioning this further. I’ve heard that when the year 01 is in question, the cycle is not a sure thing anyway. I thank you.
