2. well here's my letter if it helps
To Whom it may concern,
I recently read the story of a pro war camp formed to counter Cindy Sheehan. I was appalled to find that the term "patriotic" was used to label the pro war side and undermine and or slight the peace side. In fact I dont understand how a nation that's "built on christianity" looks down on people who love peace.
Thomas Jefferson once wrote the highest form of patriotism is the right to dissent. Jesus Christ the prince of peace is who once said thou shall not kill, is now labeled as some sort of god of war riches madness and embryos.
When did the press stop reporting reporting news, and start writting it so that it would appease the president? Inconclusion I just want to say that Freedom of the press doesn't give the press the right to slander and fabricate the news.
Sincerly yours
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
