Although I disagree with what Loretta McFadden has to say, I'll defend
the propriety of her saying it. (Not to the death perhaps, but that
shouldn't be necessary). Calling her a female Nudds is surely
overdoing it. Not even Friesel has managed that.
Lay off the personal remarks, and criticize what she writes. I was
surprised that her agricultural doomsaying came from agricultural
educational sources. The agricultural sources I have consulted have
been very optimistic.
