A message from a concerned Youtuber

On July 23 Youtuber capsource1 felt compelled to send me this message...

Subject: Sound Familiar?

Wall Street Journal carried an interview with former North Vietnamese Colonel Bui Tin, a member of the North Vietnamese general staff. Col Tin was asked, “Was the American anti-war movement important to Hanoi’s victory?”He responded, “It was essential to our strategy… Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio at 9:00 AM to follow the growth of the American anti-war movement.
Sound Familiar?
What do you think about when wheh [sic] leaders within al quaeda[sic] say that they had helped the Democrats win the majority last November?
What do you think about within the 30 days prior to the election violence went up in Iraq and more solders died in October then any month prior to that in 06?
What do you think when Cindy Sheehan said that those insurgents are the real freedom fighters?
What do you think Hitler would have said if you had helped him in World War 2? Would he thank you for your help?
Do you understand now that there's is a reason why we call you a frecken [sic] traitor????

This was my response...

Thank you for this message.

The typographical errors were minimal and the message clear. It’s nearly indistinguishable from writings of a native English speaker.

I do, however, have a difference of opinion on a few points.

First Cindy Sheehan can say anything about anything, so long as it doesn’t violate law, not because she lost a son in an American war, but simply because she IS an American.

Second, I’m not sure who “we” are, but you’re the first to call me a “frecken [sic] traitor” but isn’t that how Hitler treated those who didn’t agree with him?
