To the US postal worker who opened my letter from Washington DC

There was no money in it, you union scum.

Fuck you and fuck Barack Obama, your hero.

(There was no customs sticker or the like. Don't make excuses. This was attempted thievery. Such is the state of the Republic in its twilight.)

My absentee ballot--from my hometown, a predominantly Republican city--never got to me in 1996. The city office told me later they got a fair number of reports of that. I don't think it was a coincidence; I think union postal workers ditched them. I was sick on election day and so unable to drive home to vote.

Still, I like to think that's somewhat rare. I've known some really dedicated carriers, including my present one. And the sorting equipment CAN open poorly-sealed stuff by mistake.
