It didn't sound like Libertarian claptrap to me...



Thanks for the kick.

Doesn't sound at all like Libertarian anything. It sounds like facts.

He originally penned it in the '80s. It appeared again in 1995. In 2008, the version cited was put out with some additional material not written by Reese:

Reese was a RWNJ.

That's a ridiculous notion.

I also believe this column is being misrepresented and was not written by the man it's being attributed to.

I know things were added.

How do you prove authorship?
