Charley Reese and the rabbi
You have confirmed an unfortunate suspicion. Your postscript reflects the same reaction, albeit belated, that the rabbi expressed in his letter. I read Reese in a completely different light — he is simply suggesting that it is not in America’s best interests to support Israel and the oil-rich (or geographically strategic) despots in the region. …

Out of Egypt
Ms. Rice, Thank you. I just finished reading the paperback version of your novel [Christ the Lord – Out of Egypt]. I immediately detected a Catholic flavor to your tale, which is OK.

Open letter to Mike Huckabee
I saw you on TV a few weeks ago (June 20 on MSNBC) when Joe Scarborough asked you what books you are reading. While it was refreshing to hear that you are reading, unlike the current president, I was very disappointed when you mentioned “Beyond Iraq” by Mike Evans. An excerpt from Publishers Weekly says …

Beyond Iraq?
Gov. Huckabee, Thank you for taking time to respond to my concerns re. your position on the war in Iraq. I saw you this morning on MSNBC and when asked what you are currently reading, you mentioned “Beyond Iraq” by Mike Evans. Very disappointing. An excerpt from Publishers Weekly says this: With the Bible’s various …
