The Missoulian has seen quite a few letters like these, mostly by those frustrated by the last election.
Story on religious leader was irresponsibleWhy did the Missoulian give a full-page spread Nov. 6 to the founder of the Seventh-day Adventist sect? She was not qualified to say anything sensible about anything at all - not the age of the earth, not what anything means or is. She was so profoundly ignorant that there was no way she could know her ignorance. In a real sense she was not sane, just as George W. Bush is not sane, just as he is profoundly ignorant."The Truth is a terrible thing. It is much darker, much sadder, much more ignoble, much more inhuman and ironical than most of us are willing to admit, or even to suspect." George Santayana, "The Last Puritan" p. 250What Santayana says in that quotation explains (reveals?) why George W. Bush was re-elected.Lee Enterprise (its editors) is deeply, deeply irresponsible.
