U.S. has many valid viewpoints

In your editorial, "A day of contrasts in Utah," you compare the "noisy protesters" who demonstrated against the president's policies with Willie Hunsaker, a World War II veteran and community volunteer. You ask the question, "Which of these best represents the spirit that has made America great?"

To answer your question, I borrow a line from an essay Barbara Kingsolver wrote following the Sept. 11 attacks: "There are as many ways to love America as there are Americans, and our country needs us all."
