Well, first, I think the name or names of the authors will and should come out. It all depends on how that's done. Secondly, the ghostwriters may or may not be Paul's friend. Ghostwriters often have never met the person they are writing for. Paul may very well know, or at least have a good...

You're absolutely right... if that was, in fact the reason he signed the contracts. It's certainly a possibility. Not sure how probable it is, tho. You're also right about it being pure speculation, as there is no evidence to support such a notion. Not to put too fine a point on it, but the...

Well, when it's not your money or your reputation on the line, it's easy to call a non-disclosure agreement "lame". I'm not sure how abiding by one you sign shows a lack of integrity, tho. A waiver would have to be signed by the author(s) in order for Paul to release the name, but by the same...

Not exactly 20 years, now is it. You should actually read the one from April 1978. Not much racist in that one. Same with the other two in that section. They're anti-government, anti-neocon sentiment, which is why they're listed. The alleged "racist" newsletters were put out while he was not in...

The thread is about the Lions going to the playoffs, and someone wants to talk about tax funded stadiums. Ya can't make it up.

Twas the night before Christmas and Santa's a wreck... How to live in a world that's politically correct? His workers no longer would answer to "Elves", "Vertically Challenged" they were calling themselves. And labor conditions at the North Pole, were alleged by the...

In the interest of fair and balanced journalistic integrity and reliability, please define "going viral". :D It needs to go viral, but I'm not sure that it actually has at this point. ;)

Change yer brake fluid every two years. Brain unrattled.

It's a great story, but as the girl and the family are Muslim, I'm not sure if I'd classify it as a Christmas Miracle, even if it had happened on Christmas.

Just how long a time, exactly? It does defy logic, especially since the press eats stuff like up like crazy. I wonder where the press was at the time these were put out? That seems odd, too. These newsletters bearing racist comments were put out over a period of +/- 20 years? Really? Or were...

First and foremost, your truck must be comfortable, otherwise you won't want to spend time in it. You have to have a hobby or something to pass the time. I play on the computer, watch TV (satellite in the truck), and read. I also like sleep. I'm a big fan of sleep.

I delivered early Friday morning to Fort Payne, AL. Slept most of the day, then got a call from Dispatch: "Do you want to go home for Christmas? We'll pay your fuel if you do." How kewl is that? :D

Critical thinking skills are never required when one wants to take something at face value, to never go beyond the superficial. That's true only if critical thinking skills are not employed and unsubstantiated assumptions are made. If, however, critical thinking skills come into play, such...

I had no idea EO was so chock full of handwriting experts. The problem is, of course, even an untrained idiot can see the newsletter signature is dramatically different from Paul's signature, and was almost certainly not penned by Paul himself. What does that even mean? Does that mean you are...

The use of the term "bingo" here is deeply offensive to us Catholics who play Bingo, and are farmers who have dogs who's name-o is Bingo. Oh, wait! I forgot. I'm not Catholic, nor do I play Bingo. I'm not even a farmer! Yikes! Sorry, it's just that I feel I need to be offended, deeply, by something.

Oh, sorry, my bad. It's just that "Ron Paul did not sign it - it's not his signature" didn't seem to be all that opinion-like. It seemed, I dunno, what's the word.... unequivocal, absolute, factual, undeniable, indubitable, incontrovertible, unquestionable. One of 'em, anyway. "different than...

I don't do ATMs very often, but occasionally. I usually get "cash back" at Walmart, Autozone or Walgrees or CVS. When I do ATMs, I prefer my own bank's ATM, or Sheetz or Wawa convenience stores (no fee ATM), in that order. Sheetz also has an awesome meatball sub. :D

FYI, brake fluid is hygroscopic, which means it absorbs water and water vapor, even more readily than does diesel fuel. It gets more acidic with time and eventually starts corroding and oxidizing the various internals of the braking system. Braking components can reach temperatures of 5000...

Or a layman trying to do forensic handwriting analysis. :D
