Dear Dick,
Someone hacked my email account and posted the portraits I made of you and the rest of the staff on the internets. Funny thing is they just don't get them. The one I painted of you, they think its watermelon. May be I should have used more green.
I hear you are still faking that there was a good reason to invade Iraq. So that change of heart really didn't help?
