Just a heads up

::::::::

Just wanted to let you know about this.

Rob Kall contacted me and this was my response. 

Rob

 

I am at work right now, was a very busy shift for this Nurse but I have

finished my mountain of chores and so wanted to respond to this.

 

First, I greatly appreciate the fact that you even answered  this and the nature of your response.

 

I do not know if you had read the article that was rejected but if you did, I was most sincere in my comments about you and Op Ed news.

I know that you are a Democrat and an unrepentant one at that. however you do something that is virtually unprecendented in the "progressive" media. You provide a platform for those of us who are not Democrats.

Not just for those who "hold their feet to the fire" but for those of us who see the Dems as a bigger part of the problem, instead of political leaders who "need to be educated" or "brought round to our way of thinking."

 

Let me tell you.This is so freaking rare these days. It shows your own editorial and journalistic ethics and integrity. So when I seen my article on the Minnesota Senate race and other articles rejected, I thought it was you banning them. Then I seen your headliner on us Darkness Brigade and our need to stay quiet.

 

This was horrifying to me, especially since you had been the opposite. I can assure you that this supression of left wing dissent IS going on elsewhere.

 

It was in this context and misunderstanding that I posted my comment. It was a cry to have us go elsewhere, perhaps create something else. Now that I have seen that I was mistaken.

 

I will pass this on to the "Darkness gallery."

 

BTW, you do know that we all hope that we are wrong about Obama?

 

Because if we are not, then we are all in serious trouble, although it could actually be the spark that this country needs to have We The People demand the rule of law back.

 

Just a thought.
