Bagley's cartoon disparaging Texas in the Nov. 21 Trib is merely another example of the poor man's possibly emotionally deficient childhood.

I lived in Dallas for two years. Exciting city, great people, many magnificent facilities. I would suggest to the liberal penmanship of Bagley another cartoon depicting the following: "Welcome to Utah; Other religions beware; Birth control discouraged; Sufficient funding for education prohibited; Don't let them see you drink."

The reasoning behind his insult to Texas still confounds me. But then, none of his presentations ever seem more than catatonic liberalism.
