Hey, did you read the message I posted an hour and a half ago? This one? Someone allegedly named Rick Strandrel of Rock Island, Ill. had a letter printed in the Chicago-Tribune that borrowed generously from text of an item I posted here.
Well, it turns Mr. Strandel has been busy. Pretty much the same letter appeared last Monday in the letter section of The Washington Times. Here's a link to that page.
But it doesn't stop there. If you scroll down a ways, the same page in The Washington Times has a letter signed by "William Stosine of Iowa City, Iowa" that's plagiarized from this item that I posted about the S-CHIP expansion veto.
This is not the first time Mr. Stosine has cribbed from my postings here. Back in February of '04, my words turned up in a couple of newspapers over his signature. Here's one example and here's another.
I'll bet you ten bucks that Rick Standrel and William Stosine are the same person. In fact, I'm pretty sure I know what his real name is and it isn't either of those.
