I had something else planned for the open letters this month, but some happenings from recent events have led Me to change course a bit:

Dear Gerry Ferraro, staunch Clinton Supporter:

You wonderful, wonderful woman: thank you for putting another hole into Clinton’s campaign with your short-sighted remarks. Thank you for the irony that was your slogan in ‘84. American does need new leadership.

“If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position,” she continued. “And if he was a woman (of any color) he would not be in this position. He happens to be very lucky to be who he is. And the country is caught up in the concept.”

Dear Hillary Clinton:

Please, stop! This is why we can’t have nice things! It’s getting pathetic and more transparent by the day. Stop trying to fool people into voting for you buy mentioning a Clinton / Obama ticket. Everybody knows it will never happen. I know it’s too much to ask, but stop trying to turn the Democratic party into a circus.

Dear Elliot Spitzer:

It could have been worse and I’m dubbing it: Spitzerhook. You could have lost consciousness at the Nutcracker Suite.  (Don’t ask why, but I will admit that when I first read this, I read it as Mark Spitz - the legendary swimmer - and said to myself, “What the christ? We swimmers don’t need hookers to get laid.)

Dear Media:

After tonight, let the Spitzerhook controversy die.  The guy had some sex.  So what? But you won’t because your executive producers are greedy bastards who probably aren’t getting enough at home. For the next two weeks, they will live vicariously through those who are balls-deep in this scandal, wishing they could afford $1,000 / hour prostitutes.
