Not that it really matters in the grand scheme of things and the nay sayers will still trash it....

According to www.snopes.com this letter is "true" in the sense that officer sent the letter to his church prayer group, and somehow ended up being circulated in a couple of different ways. If you want to read it yourself (I don't know if this stuff is copyrighted) it's under politics in snopes. I have a feeling that the statements that were made are true, but the actual letter may be altered. But, I'm sure I'm wrong. lol
