Letter to the Seattle Times

After the PI closed, we refused to change to the Times because, to be blunt, the Times seemed to have much too little news.

Recently, my wife responded to a "special offer."

We want to cancel the Times. Your editorial opinions seem more appropriate for a Tea Bagger newsletter than for the sole remaining Seattle newspaper. The writing is often poor, but the endorsement of Rob McKenna's actions is over the top. Mr. Blethen needs a course in Government 101 .. as well as lessons in grammar.
We do, after all, have a government of checks and balances based on law. If an AG has the independent ability to decide that he or she can determine the state's interest, doesn't that create the office as nearly a fourth branch of government?

I thought that the concept of our courts is that parties to an action must be able to show an interest in the action. IF Mr. McKenna can not show that he represents the interests of the State, then who does he represent?

Perhaps he represents Mr. Blethen?
