I can assure you Keith Burris is the worst. He can't write, his grammar sucks, he believes conspiracy crap, and has even repeated things from Breitbart. He is a total Trump suck up. Reading his articles is like reading a list of pure right-wing talking points. I don't think this man is capable of forming his own thoughts. One of his big things is spouting off about "identity politics". He likes to pretend that liberal politicians are the only politicians who have ever used identity politics. Ever since he has been part of the editorial page the Blade has been going down hill. Thanks for letting me rant.

hire a second cartoonist or just buy some from a syndicate. There's plenty of right-leaning 'toonists around.

They should not stifle an artist's creativity under any circumstance, so long as he maintains good standards of decency.
