Letter - Political contributions are legal

In fact, as I recall, contributions to political parties are legal. Is extortion?

To the editor:

So, tell me, Vince Wogan, why is it wrong for Soros to contribute to the party of his choice, but all right for Grover Norquist to threaten Republicans with the loss of their Congressional and Senate seats if they don’t “cooperate?” In fact, as I recall, contributions to political parties are legal. Is extortion?
