    Just Ignore It

    I have no love for the right wing, but in this case I would let it alone. Your column is starting to sound like an echo chamber. Who cares what he wrote? I read this morning that 20 headless bodies were found in Baghdad today. Isn't that a more important story than what a frustrated soldier living in a war zone did or did not say?

    There are no 'signficant' questions to resolve. Twenty years from now will someone look back and say that what Colonel Boylan emailed to you was important? Who cares? Is it really important?
