Our Newest Op Ed
Richard Roeper -- A Bush Basher Who's Annoyed With Me
- By Warner Todd Huston
On Feb 14th, Chicago Sun-Times columnist, Richard Roeper, wrote one of his columns about the fact that Chicago White Sox Manager, Ozzie Guillen, did not accompany the team on their visit to the White House.
He used this occasion not solely to write in support of the ball player, but as a vehicle to attack George W. Bush, saying in part: “…I just couldn't shake hands and smile with President Bush”.
(See Roeper’s columns here: Lay off Ozzie: Sometimes you can't pay your respects )
I have little interest in Roeper’s column here, however, as it is prosaic in its Bush bashing. Roeper is a Hollyweird wannbe after all. No, what this column is interested in is the thankfully short correspondence that Mr. Roeper and I had over his column.
Three little emails (two from me and one from him) reveals so very much about the both of us, to be sure.
After reading his bashing attempt, meant to ingratiate him with the Hollyweird set no doubt, I dashed off my own little missive to let Mr. Roeper know of my displeasure -- taking advantage of the same freedom Mr. Roeper indulges in for a living I might add; opining.
