We don’t really get Greg Patterson, who blogs as the Espresso Pundit.

He’s one of those guys who is always mad.

But why?

Let’s see… he was born white and male in a country fabulously accommodating to his type.

There were eight years of national Republican rule, complete with tax cuts, which surely benefitted him more than most…and his buddies have been in control of the AZ legislature since who knows when, delivering him lots more tax cuts.

The courts are turning the country over to the gun nets and corporations, his party got us into two wars that keep the Halliburtons of the world in the chips, and the country’s most popular news channel is an arm of the GOP.

But he’s always upset!

It’s weird.

Anyway, Patterson got the Republic dead to rights on a mistake in a recent editorial, which claimed that the state’s gun laws made restaurants and bars provide storage for gun owners if they don’t allow weapons.

He’s right about the correction, too… what should a paper do when an incorrect fact makes an entire article or editorial invalid?
