Tough luck, indeed; Edward J. Hum; Beaver County Times; October 7, 2004.

Below is a detailed critique of the subject letter.

“As a Republican who thinks President Bush is about the dumbest president in the last 212 years, I enjoyed the ‘Tough luck’ editorial on Sunday that quoted U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum’s (he’s another one) remark about the feds not having money for flood victims but $200 billion for Iraq and tax cuts for well-off people.

“You’re right. ‘Tough luck; mission accomplished.’”

[RWC] Does anyone believe Mr. Hum is really a Republican? Here are three reasons I have doubts. First, his previous letter in July was also an anti-Bush screed. Second, calling the opposition dumb tends to be a liberal staple. Third, another recent liberal tactic is for a person to pose as a Republican then claim President Bush is so bad that even Republicans can’t support him.
