Worthy of Swift’s Satire

Editor,

Regarding the letter entitled “A Differing View” in the Indy Jan. 5, 2018.

Great letter, Ms. Zeiter! After a year’s worth of all of us bickering over what’s right and what’s wrong with this country, and what’s real and what’s fake about the news (although curiously something that has never been questioned before by any clear-thinking human being), somebody has finally decided that satire might be the best way to approach this craziness.

Masterful! Your “argument” that Mr. Trump has done nothing but wondrous things, when in fact he’s pretty much destroyed every forward step our country has taken in the past 50 years by whining and denigrating and brow-beating and bullying is a tactic worthy of Jonathan Swift. You almost succeeded in convincing even the “Bircher” wing of my family that you were serious. I know, I know, I had to let them down, although not without a secret chuckle that only you and I could truly share.

Claiming that this alt right yahoo posing as our president was alright, and all the while doing so with a straight face and no typos has proved to be the best letter this year. Fabulous! Please tell me that we get to hear more from you.

Bravo.

  1. The yoke is obviously on you! Do you normally pull the wool over your families eyes? Ms. Zeiter did not write any satire! It was a look at what our President has done and continues to do to preserve our country after the past president sold our country out on so many levels. obama and Crooked hillary should be tossed in jail for crimes against our country. I’m sure it is difficult for the left to swallow the successes President Trump is having against all the obstructionism. Why would you want this President to fail?

  2. Mace M Morse, III obviously has ignored the criminal conduct of Fake News Leftist Dan Rather, who conspired with Mary Mapes to present fraudulent documents claiming that President Bush went AWOL while a member of the Air Force.

    Morse also conveniently ignored the CNN vice president who lied when he told assembled reporters in Europe that the U.S. armed forces was “targeting the press” in Iraq. He was fired too, like Dan Rather.

    This contemptible bunch of Leftist Liars goes all the way back to Walter Duranty, a winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his lies about the Soviet Union, claiming it was such an ideal and happy place to live, despite his knowledge that Stalin was starving and killing his own people by the scores of millions.

    Leftists are destroying America, and they refuse to acknowledge or stop their utter destructiveness. They push on, with yet more lies, everywhere.
