Need more liberal columnists

I recently visited Cape Girardeau for a few weeks and read the Southeast Missourian daily.

I noticed that your op-ed page is almost exclusively conservative, Donna Brazile apparently the sole liberal.

As a reader of The Washington Post, I am used to seeing a wide diversity of opinion.

In the interest of fairness perhaps the Southeast Missourian might consider a more balanced op-ed lineup.
