Dear Editor: While I must emphasize that I’m the last person on this planet to defend the leftist odium that passes these days as journalism, whether print or tube, broadcast or cable, “The Tone of the Political Debate Has Hit a New Low” in The Editor’s Space (June 24) causes me to do the unthinkable – defend a network “commentator.”

Dear Editor: I would like to give a reason for the media-fueled Russian collusion investigation that I have not seen before. It is my belief that this investigation is nothing more than a campaign strategy for the 2018 mid-term election. If, with the help of the mainstream media, the Democrats can keep this going for another year, they are hoping to convince enough voters to vote Democrat and they will gain control of Congress.

Dear Editor: Great “Editor’s Space” (June 24)!

Dear Editor: Permit to make two corrections to the caption that recently accompanied a picture of me in The Tablet. I have never achieved a doctorate degree so to refer to me as “Dr.” was incorrect, though I appreciate the designation.

Dear Editor: There is an adage that says that a priest’s first parish is his first love. I witnessed confirmation of this saying recently at Father Willy Kingsley Ndi’s First Mass at Brooklyn’s historic Our Lady of Victory Church, now part of St. Martin de Porres parish.

Dear Editor: I didn’t want the Easter season to end without commenting on Carol Powell’s reflection (May 13) on the death of her granddaughter. She wrote of the human pain (which I too have experienced) of not being able to hold her granddaughter or watch her grow and participate in her life.
