My LTTE...
...The right wing and Bush campaign tell us that what
happened 30 years ago is irrelevant to this years
campaign. This is not what they felt when the
attention was focused on John Kerry’s medals but now
that the question is, “Did Bush do his duty?” they
want it all swept under the rug. I disagree but think
the focus of the question is not whether Bush did his
duty but how he got in that position in the first
place. Bush gained his position in the guard through
the influence of his father and wealthy friends. He
has spent his entire life living off of the privilege
these people could garner for him. He knows no other
way and in fact sees nothing wrong with the wealthy
looking out for one another at the expense of the less
privileged. He has shown this throughout his
presidency by returning the favors asked of him by the
patrons who served him as he made his way through
life. Bush has brought back to America the class
system of nobles and serfs that the American
Revolution threw out 228 years ago. Four more years
of Bush will allow him to solidify what he has begun.
Bush believes that there is a class meant to serve and
a class to be served, the Iraq war exemplifies that
nicely. How many voters are going to be duped into
sacrificing their sons and daughters because Bush
hides this belief well and comes across to them as a
regular guy?

They haven't printed the last few I have written. I hope this meets with more success.

1. Just a suggestion.
You should break this up into paragraphs. They don't edit for you, so you need to have the letter already formatted, spell checked and grammatically correct before they will consider printing a LTTE no matter how compelling the content.

I have had several LTTE printed over the years. I always make sure that they need no further editing before I send them out.

2. Does the paper print letters that long, or do they prefer shorter letters?
