Why you should come to New York (read this LTTE)
To the Editor:

I was going back and forth about whether to come to New York to protest at the Republican convention. But since I've learned that the F.B.I. has been deployed to intimidate protesters, I no longer have any doubt about what to do.

It is no longer just a matter of political protest. It is a matter of defending our constitutional rights. I'm coming to New York.

Peter Scotto, we stand with you!

He was a Russian prof of mine at Mount Holyoke. Great letter!

3. Yes, thank you!
I can't afford to get to NYC, but I'll be there in spirit. And my slash W sign goes up the first day of the convention.

6. Now why was this moved?
How is this a campaign topic? It's about the New York events!

It's like... WTF?
It's more about our basic rights, Patriot Act etc...
I don't want to bother Skinner in 'Ask the Admin', but maybe someone else may be so bold.
