I got an even better story. I  e-mailed the White House over a year ago to 
express my feelings on Leonard Peltier. Never got a response, so I forgot all 
about it. A couple months ago, to my amazement I received a letter in the 
mail, thanking me for my continued support of the Clinton administration and 
more such rhetoric. I was also informed about how the Clinton administration 
has taken a strong stance on crime to make this a better and safer nation. 
Bravo, they answered a comment I didnt make, kinda like if I asked someone 
how old they are and they said, "I like pizza" in response. 

 After reading it I felt that no response at all would have been better...at 
least then I could have been reassured that the government views me as an 
insignificant peasant instead of feeling like I was being talked down to like 
I was a fool.

Peace
OOT
