Reader takes issue with content of columns
Greg Bean's columns read like they were taken word-for-word from a newspaper in Venezuela or Tehran. His liberal leanings are so apparent, he might want to apply for the copyboy position at his favorite television station, CNN, or that bastion of a free press, The New York Times. Bush-bashing is the favorite pastime of the liberal press.

Several months ago after one of Mr. Bean's tirades, I e-mailed him outlining my "take" on each of his "hate-Bush" comments. He didn't logically reply to the email. He simply chastised me for my lengthy e-mail that he had to "muddle through." In an attempt to be "balanced," he now has an old newspaper buddy reply to his ridiculous and repetitive manifesto. His "buddy" is much too nice to an old pal and most times agrees with him. So much for balanced reporting.

In a recent column Greg chastised the Bush administration for torturing those poor lads in Guantanamo. If Greg's liberal candidate is elected, Guantanamo will be closed and the freed zealots will be attacking our troops. He simply doesn't get it. If "waterboarding" saves one innocent American life, then so be it.

How about a little less "hate-George" tripe and a lot more spent on New Jersey issues like the proposed toll increases?
