Thanks John, Jeff, and Corey.
That being said, John I understand you defending your brother for his column the other day, after all, he is family. I used to defend my older brother in the school yard when he was losing a fist fight, however, do not attack your longtime loyal readers and subscribers when we disagree with some of the opinions expressed by your brother ….we are not attacking him personally. You want independent media then you must also want independent readership who freely comments, which you have. We are the intelligent and moral unwashed masses, deplorables, and lumpen proles who diligently do our homework and respond/comment to what we feel are erroneous viewpoints. Thanks.
Bravo, well stated
Agree with Mr. Jennings’s comment. If columnists can give their opinions freely, so can their readers.
