From time to time I write a column that hits a nerve and elicits what can only be described as a massive response. My column last week, Bread and Circuses, was just such a column.
In general, people took umbrage with two points: that the pork spending I mentioned in the article was not part of the COVID-19 Relief package and that Senator Shaheen did not deserve to be singled out. I will clarify why my position is correct, not from a "certain perspective," but from a keen observation of how the final product was created and how it was presented to the American people. Perception is reality, even if a simpler route is to clarify a very complicated process.
