Obviously From Someone Without Any Sin

RECEIVED Tue., June 24, 2008

Dear Editor,
    Poor, poor Scotty McClellan ["Who Did He Serve?" News, June 20]. "He's a person with no country," said Slater as heartbreakingly portrayed in Whittaker's article. I guess Scotty didn't notice the loyalty oaths and illegal scrubbing of eligible voters before he started humping for Bush. "The big disillusioning moment" for him wasn't that millions of Iraqis were subjected to terror beyond belief but that Bush "secretly authorized disclosure of the National Intelligence Estimate." Poor, poor Scotty. That is disillusioning. So, so disillusioning. How much life ruined, wrecked, and lost forever whilst Scotty remained mute and went along? But, hey, better late then never as is said. I wonder how much money poor, poor Scotty made and will make from his awakening moral conscience? Maybe poor, poor Scotty ought to give the money to the millions of Iraqi refugees or perhaps the thousands of American soldiers and/or their families maimed and damaged by this unnecessary and illegal war … then kill himself.
