ABQjournal: Dendahl’s Ramblings Badly Written, Poorly Researched
By Angela Wandinger-Ness, Biology Professor
There are many things to take issue with in John Dendahl’s commentary, “Bush is the Man with a Mandate.” I will comment on only two points: poor writing skills and unjustified accusation.
There should be accountability and a factual basis that underlies a credible opinion. An opinion should provide well-written, carefully crafted arguments with a take-home message? not just random musings and unfounded diatribe, particularly when it is presented to the public by a syndicated columnist who uses his credentials as a retired executive and political leader to give weight to his ramblings. …
Based on these examples, I submit that Dendahl’s column is nothing more than the ramblings of a cantankerous old man with no credibility.
