NORTH HAMPTON, MA - With all due respect to the author I would have to disagree (in part) with the comments relating the 30 pack rule to Communism.  To state the eventual downfall of The Dog Pound and countries who share it’s similar tyrannical leadership is mindless.  By no means do I agree with the 30-pack rule or the views of Communism, but I have to take issue with the author’s statement that all countries who follow this ideology are doomed to fail.  At this very minute, the most populated country in the entire world and the last bastion of Communism is steadily creeping up on the title of “Economic Bully” that we have held so staunchly for the last half century.  China is THE Country that everyone wants to deal with and trade with and, as some on Wall Street have predicted, is the future of the world’s economy.  Also home to the 2008 Olympics China seems to be shaking it’s stained image of human rights violations, lead painted toys and cardboard dumplings to reveal a bright burgeoning economic super power.  Now, I am not one to say that this is all due to it’s Stalin-esque doctrine, but apparently the writer of the previous article does not appreciate boneless spareribs, fireworks, or spaghetti; all by-products of Chinese ingenuity.  How un-American is someone who does not like fireworks I ask you?  Although we may never know who penned this un-American rag (sources close to the website have revealed it may have Al-Qaeda origins) I tend to think that this is the start of a vicious smear campaign by former manager (and current candidate) Bryan Riley.  I will leave you with this fine readers (assuming the right wing controlled Dog Pound website even prints this letter) what was the first thing Hitler took control of when his Nazis stormed the streets of Eastern Europe…… the trains………the power companies………no, it was the newspapers.  If you own the media you control the votes.  THINK FOR YOURSELF!!!!!
