    I'm going to blog that, in fact.

    She won't get disciplined, that's the sad reality.

    Yes, when you think about it - very sad that some people in 'high places' can get away with what is, quite clearly, a form of 'Hate Speech'...

    I wish I could write letters like that too. I'm pretty blunt and to the point when something moves me to do it, but I'm not quite that passionate.

    an eloquent and moving letter...just makes you think about what goes on and motivates people like Sally Kern to say such cruel and ignorant things.

    I don't think I have enough words in my vocabulary to describe that letter. It was so moving and so beautiful; so powerful and so very sincere. I really do hope the letter authentic, but I don't think it'd affect me any if it wasn't.
