Funny Or Pathetic

I'll leave it up to you to decide.

One of the best features of Best Of The Web Today is when they find a letter to the editor submitted to various newspapers under different names. The latest they've come across is:
President Bush is endangering my retirement and the retirements of millions of Americans by taking the first step in his plan to dismantle Social Security.

Recently, White House sources revealed their plan to cut promised benefits to retirees by nearly a third. And these cuts are guaranteed, whether you opt in to the Bush plan or not.

For those entering the workforce today, that means more than a 25 percent cut in the retirement benefits they're counting on; for their children, it guarantees a 46 percent cut.

We can't stand by and let George W. Bush and the Republicans cut our promised retirement benefits--especially when so many of us are counting on Social Security to help us lead a happy, healthy life when we retire.
Given that the left thinks of itself as being intellectually superior to the right you would think they would have the ability to compose their own letters. Is that too much to ask?
