Amazing how the criminals would break in just to steal computers. A desktop PC has a pawn shop value of about .50, and every drug addict out there knows it. Crooks would be more likely to steal the air conditioner than the computers. I'll bet they didn't have a backup of the data either.

Probably ACORN stealing their own computers to hide the evidence. They just aren't smart enough to know th E-mails are still in ciber space and accessible.
No, they wouldn't do something like that would they?

I think you misunderstood me. For starters, folllow the link I posted, take a minute and read the article. This alone will set you apart from John. You'll discover that this isn't a typical character assasignation. It isn't an unnamed sources peice. It isn't a 'general piece'. It's very specific. People are mentioned, first and last name and quotes taken from witnesses.
You see, it's not just the publisher who can can be sued if the article is fabricated..
I stand by my remarks
I'm beginning to wonder whether you have actually read the article. It doesn't accuse Governor Palin of trying to censor books. It accuses her of asking the librarian, during a public hearing, whether she would agree to remove any book from the library, if she were requested to do so.
Governor Palin explained that she wasn't asking that any books be censored. She said her question was rhetorical.
The article isn't legally actionable because it doesn't defame Governor Palin. It doesn't accuse her of trying to censor books from the library. The article doesn't recount even a single instance in which Governor Palin ever asked that a single book be censored. It merely accuses her of asking the librarian whether she would submit to censorship, if asked to do so.
In my career, I often asked similar rhetorical questions during public hearings, not because I wanted to ask anyone to do anything improper, but because I wanted to make citizens in the audience understand the ethical implications of what they were requesting.
The article represents a cheap shot at Governor Palin, because it implies improper conduct without making an outright accusation. If someone wrote such an article about you, you'd be outraged, but, since it's about Governor Palin, you apparently have no reservations about using it to wound her.
Sailormon - Much like King Canute, Rick thinks he can turn back the tides. I don't doubt he read the article (which, coincidently, I had read long before he even knew it existed), it is simply, that he read into, what he wanted to find, rather than what it actually said.

In that case sck, just send me a check now, rather than give to Obama to give to me. Since you believe the purpose of taxation is to redistribute wealth, it seems only logical.

YOU seem to think the purpose of taxation is to distribute wealth. I dont. I think the main purpose of taxation is to pay for public goods that the private sector cannot provide - some examples are defense, roads, aids to navigation, etc. Of course, we also use it as a way to change incentives to do or not do stuff - an example is taxing tobacco since rumor has it smoking is bad for your health - Reasonable people can differ on whether that is a good idea, but none of this has anything to do with redistributing wealth.
If you don't believe the purpose of taxation is to redistribute wealth, why are you voting for someone who does?
