Speaking as a hypersensitive,politically tone deaf liberal who supports paranoid ,unhinged persons,Douglas:I support the right of all people to defend themselves, against attacks manufactured of out of context quotes, from any source, in order to reign obliquy, on another person, for political advantage.That is what occured with Wright.Wright is neither paranoid nor unhinged! He is a long time builder in his community,a contributor with a long and distinguish
career.You need not like his opinions.
Douglas,you want to win in November and Wright is in the way of your "victory".He is a "distraction" the first of many "distractions"that Rovian politics will manufacture with the help of the corrupt,malfesant media. The strong player in this political mix is the Internet and it is the place where the media is unmasked every time it makes a "mistake".Newspapers and television have lost credibility.The Internet has the capability of reversing that erosion of trust in public institutions, and the press is a public instution.Faith in the viability and veracity of public institutions is the sine qua non of this Republic
