To the Messenger:

I read the Point/Counterpoint piece in the Dec. 19 Messenger and was disappointed by what I read. Some brief background – Joe, Bruce, myself, and other local bloggers occasionally get together for lunch and discuss many of the same issues that appear here in the Messenger. And no, we don’t sit around calling each other Nazis and Communists. We do exchange ideas and points-of-view and surprisingly to some I’m sure, do so without raising fists or voices to make a point.
