An open letter to people who write open letters

Please don't.

That's it. Because if you do, you will probably -- nay, with virtual certainty -- pen such a turgid, self-aggrandizing polemic, so full of grievance and resentment -- not to mention simple pig ignorance -- that you will doubtlessly reveal yourself as the narcissistic boob that you are.

If you don't believe me, I offer this:

First paragraph of Bradlee Dean's letter

You can read all of Pastor Bradlee's plea for a return to sanity -- and the Bronze Age -- at Dump Michele Bachmann.

So all of you out there with pen poised -- and you, not to mention we -- know who you are: save yourself some embarrassment.
