THE FACTS, PLEASE

For many years, I have been upset by what seemed to be a strong bias in your newspaper. Now on the March 11 op-ed page, I find that you have not only published two different viewpoints on the ``Secrest Memo,'' you have published the text of the memo itself. What an inspired idea! Give your readers the facts and let them decide for themselves!

The question now is, while the politicians in our state legislature were posturing, who was trying to do what was right for Virginia? Those who can see beyond politics and set a course in Virginia's best interest are the ones we need to elect next November. An informed electorate is our best hope for the future. I hope that your paper will continue to provide us with the facts.
