- This is the attitude that's driving me nuts. I don't agree with him
- either, but at least he made an effort. Remember, I haven't previously
- frequented this group; all I know is what was submitted to me, which
- was a decently - written piece. All I've heard from my fellow
- pro - choicers is "how dare you print him, I wouldn't think of being
- printed in the same magazine with him, I'd rather sit on my butt and
- then flame you when the magazine comes out with solely pro - life
- material." Which will be your own fault. If you're trying to promote
- your point of view as opposed to his, you're doing a miserable job of it.
- I'm doing my level best not to make a flame of this; my apologies
- if I've gone a bit over the line.
-
- If you disagree with him, refute him line by line. Be my guest. I'll
- print it. You have no excuse to blame the magazine and tell me
- how "embarrassing" it is.
-
- Like the political system, the magazine should be open to those
- of multiple views. I hope you're not planning to stay home in November
- on polling day because it's much too "embarrassing" to step into a
- voting booth Bush supporters have been in.

- Believe it or not there is life after college. At least if you live
- near NYC.
