YOU KNOW, THIS is actually worse than my hatemail. That’s no small accomplishment.
UPDATE: On the other hand, I got this today, in response to my “thank you” for an Amazon donation:
It was long overdue. I’ve loved your blog for awhile now. You wrote previously that donations offset a lot of hate mail that you get, and considering how outrageous and hateful the posters at thepoorman.net were in response to your post about Iran contra/El Salvador, I hope my donation makes a difference (almost halfway there to the new iPod Shuffle!).
Best,
Bryan Smith
Stuck in Madison, WI and eternally grateful for you and Althouse!
Stuff like that makes it worthwhile.
