Letters to the Editor

This letter is associated with the following article:
With his Confederate-flag-draped past, Sen. George Allen is in trouble for using a term for monkeys -- and racial slur elsewhere in the world -- to ridicule a dark-skinned man at a campaign rally.
  • Not Surprised

    I have a friend who grew up in the same neighborhood as the Allen family and was friends with one of his brother, and he told me several years ago that George Allen was sadistic and the neighborhood bully. I'm glad his true nature is showing through before he can move further up the power ladder.
