Electoral imperialism

Mark Steyn writes in the Telegraph about the Guardian's outrageous attempt to influence the American election by directing a letter-writing campaign to the innocent residents of the swing district of Clark County, Ohio. This display of monumental arrogance and disregard for democracy provoked a website to organise a letter-writing campaign to the Guardian in retaliation. The Guardian really does think it is on a higher plane than the rest of humanity. A less edifying display of hubris and absence of self-awareness can scarcely be imagined.
