Subject: RE: BS: Popular Views on Obama
Ms Harrop,

I have taken your advice and applied skeptical examination to your opinion piece. Your website suggests that I ask my local editor to include your columns in his paper. I will not be doing so. I am not interested in reading the opinions of people who wrap their libel as innuendo and print it as opinion. You have hinted that PBS and David Brooks are attacking Hillary because the Obama campaign has told them to do. You offer no proof, just more innuendo. You also seem to be blaming McCain's trouble with "the Times" on the Obama Campaign. Also you seem to be giving them credit for CBS's showing film to expose Mrs. Clinton's exaggerations.

Calling that series of lies a misstatement after Mrs. Clinton repeated them three times and Her campaign denied them twice, demonstrates that you have a bit of bias yourself. Did Hillary's campaign instruct you to do that? Maybe you should consider some skeptical examination of your own.

Please consider that the "onslaught" may have been because she did not address the issue honestly and forthrightly from the start and that the lack of an onslaught over the Kennedy thing may have been because Obama, admitted his mistake and corrected it as soon as it was pointed out to him.

Congratulations for getting yourself on a website that claims that you have talent.

I however, am skeptical. Jack
