My First Hate Mail!!!

Take a moment and read this little gem from a huge fan from across the pond. This guy is terrific! I wish my posts were half as funny.

"I find myself in total agreement with all that you say. I am British and I am proud of my nation. Like your country Britain has its left-wing traitors, these people should be put to the sword. Indeed, if Britain had not been betrayed by liberal elements in the 1770's, it is likely that our great country would still control Northern America and people such as yourself.

I am a born-again Christian and I firmly believe that Jesus was a extreme right-winger. Those liberals who tell us to read the sermon on the mount are liars. The sermon on the mount was falsely placed in the bible some Lilly-livered 1st century radical who stupidly believed that all men and women were born equal. These idiots have been around for centuries-we have to eliminate them with our sidearms.

In this country, as in yours, there are too many liberal newspapers. As many as 2 newspapers out of 11 are liberal; this is too many. I watch Fox News on my television and it is far too liberal. I think you should do something about it.

I am currently campaigning for the arming, with heavy guns, of all our citizens so that we can catch up with murder rate. I cannot tolerate being behind you Americans. I am in total agreement with those neo-fascist Christians in your country who suggest that the end of the world is coming shortly. Indeed, it can be said with certainty that all intelligent life has disappeared on the fascist right, the slot that you so clearly belong to. Hitler would be proud of you.

Yours, Seanus Liberatus"

(His real name allegedly is Sean Connor, according to his e-mail address: sean.connor@amserve.com.)

This would have been posted sooner, but my spell-check imploded after running through Sean's e-mail. Atrocious spelling, no space between words, and the requisite Hitler reference make for delicate proofreading. I responded to this simpleton, but I wanted to reiterate something that a lot of people still don't understand: my e-mail address is rightwing24@peoplepc.com. This has nothing to do with my political views, since 1. I rarely post about politics anymore, and 2. I am more of a Libertarian than a "neo-fascist."

The e-mail address is the position I play in ice hockey, and my uniform number. I know I explained this dozens of times, but I guess it takes longer for word to spread across the Atlantic.
