Ton of stuff in the Northeast Times last week, which I noticed when I was in the NE for Thanksgiving. For example, this letter about how Bill and Hillary are the anti-Jack Kelly:
There are many pet lovers who write letters to the Northeast Times. I wonder what they think of the Clintons’ bid to get back in the White House?
The Clintons entered the White House with their lovable cat Socks. Then they adopted their dog Buddy when Bill got into his women problems and needed to seem more, I guess, normal.
Presidential candidate Hillary once even wrote a book about the pets, and we were told how Socks loved to roll in the laundry (as if Hillary ever did laundry.)
Well, we should remember that when the Clintons left the White House, the pet ornaments were no longer useful. The beloved Socks was given away, seemingly like a pair of old socks. Buddy was run over and killed a year later, when left to roam on the roads near the Clintons’ New York home.
Gee, even the supposedly bloodless Richard Nixon kept his dog Checkers for a lifetime, and buried him with a monument.
If how we treat our pets is a window into our soul, this may tell us more about the Clintons than any speech or policy paper.
Yeah! The, uh, bloodless (bloodless?) Nixon managed to keep his cocker spaniel, what’s up Clinton’s dog dying in an accident? I bet they hate Barbaro, too!

Oh how I miss the time I spent reading all those wonderful letters to the editor there- and the early email submissions too. I’m sure you can imagine the quality of the stuff that doesn’t get published- though Fred has always made sure as much of it as possible runs.
