Election meant no to fear tactics


David Reinhard's November 5 opinion piece proffers little more than liberal bashing. He complains of "the outbreak of largely liberal intolerance" over the last few elections.

Sorry. My reading over the last few elections indicates that far more right-wing rank-and-fliers are the cause of election-time vandalism. Liberal intolerance? The right wing invented it. The truth is, as the election just amply demonstrated, decent-minded citizens, whether they be liberals or otherwise, by electing Barack Obama, have intoned a loud "No" to further intolerance and fear tactics from the right.
