Fahrenheit 7/13

Re “Winnin’s, Fixin’s and a Few Sayin’s” (July 13): Two of the seven items were Kerry-bashing. Was this intended to send a whiff of true red, white and blue essence of reactionary woodsman? The consumers who purchase the gourmet gear you advertise aren’t real cowboys. Most of them are latte-swilling, PBS-supporting, tree-hugging Michael Moore fans. And we are not pleased.
