As a 35-year Postie who can barely bear to read the paper any more, I'm glad to see Hank Allen wind up his career with a bang sted a whimper.

While violence can't be condoned in the workplace, the simpering little prick was asking for it, and got it. At least Allen has skills.

Actually, I don't think Allen came right out and identified the Esther Iverem piece as the worst article ever in the style section of the Washington Post.
