Rad Tollett's Point Is ...
RECEIVED Fri., June 25, 2004
Dear Editor:
My eye cue, one three two. Pleased to communicate that I did not catch a single episode of The Apprentice. Rad Tollett's point ["Postmarks," June 25] is that Michael Moore's ilk brought us reality TV's Temptation Islands, and/or that while documentaries used to be fare for the discerning elite, now, if Fahrenheit 9/11 is any indication, they're fodder for the feckless, clueless masses. His lead sentence, concerning the unprecedented $10 million promotion of same, intimates a vast left-wing conspiracy.
Bless W.'s oil-grabbin' li'l heart. Here he is, a fine upstanding Christian and indomitable patriot, leading America against the envious thugs and disgruntled insurgents, unwillingly torturing their corroborators, and Moore has the unmitigated audacity to point out the Bush family has been in bed with "the billionaire bin Ladens" for decades? The bin Ladens, whose No. 1 most wanted son has miraculously evaded detection for three years? The same Osama that a "rogue" CIA agent broadcasted is putting in place an inevitable catastrophic terrorist incident on U.S. soil?
For shame. Does Mr. Moore actually misconstrue that practice of the First Amendment is permissible during wartime, under the PATRIOT Act?
"Take a look at the world/think about how it [may] end/there'd be no wars in the world/if everybody joined [a music] band.
"Think about the light in your eyes/think about what you should know/there'd be no wars in the world/if [everyone performed] in the show." – Yusef Islam
