"Note To A Conservative Friend"
Dear *******
I'm sorry about my last email.
It was pretty harsh.
It's just that I get SO MANY of those ultra-conservative
propaganda outbursts,
and our side is not aloud to speak.
Oh, we're allowed the freedom to speak
and be blacklisted, boycotted, ridiculed, and hated.
Is that the same freedom of speech our country fights for?
It gets very frustrating.
And I often get them from friends
who, I'm sure, are thinking that everybody believes as they do.
If we give an opposing opinion
we are accused of being "unamerican",
a word coined by Sen. Joseph McCarthy in the 1950's.
Anyway, sorry I popped off at you.
We're friends!
Love,
Jack
