You liberals make me laugh! All you you talk about are the supposed evils of the Reagan/Bush and El Salvador. This Ad- ministration has done more good for this country than any in the past two decades, and I don't think it has been at the expense of your "human values" either. Your general atti- tude in the above article implies a significant misunder- standing on your part. I try hard to keep an "open mind", but have problems with such "cry-baby" thinking. I am relieved that I chose a University with a right-wing majority (in fact we are proud of having very few liberals here), but we certainly let our liberal brothers hold their demonstrations, have speakers, etc. with out wasting our time on pointless heckling and harrassment. I'm certain Mr. Bush is a god, and the next president of these tremendously supreme United States of America. -- Roger Bly Jr. University of Calif. at San Diego home of the "California Review"
