Hopefully, somebody will read these and learn a little something about the way our government works. Judging from the stuff he said in his editorials, Alter could certainly stand to take a decent government class, and if I can prevent anybody else from making the same mistakes he did, I'll consider the world a little better of a place. Original, full response - I recomend you read this one. The others are just here because I couldn't think of any reasons not to throw 'em up. Abridged response - About half as long as the original.
Same information is presented, just with less explanation.
Four - Dedicated to the fourth article. Again, nothing new is presented here, I've just left out references to the other four articles. This is, possibly, the worst piece of editing I've ever seen. In particular, check out the embarisingly long run-on sentence. It's about half way down, published horizontally.
