Five authors charged that Regnery Publishing deprives its writers of royalties by selling their books at a steep discount to organizations owned by the same parent company.

LOL707 Couldn’t happen to a better bunch! Swiftboater, Clinton hater, Iraq WMD True-Believers!

“The difference between 10 cents and $4.25 is pretty large when you multiply it by 20,000 to 30,000 books,” Mr. Miniter said. “It suddenly occurred to us that Regnery is making collectively jillions of dollars off of us and paying us a pittance.” He added: “Why is Regnery acting like a Marxist cartoon of a capitalist company?””

Is he sure that they aren’t making Brazillions of dollars? Jillions seems a bit low. But the question about why Regnery is acting like a Marxist cartoon of a capitalist company is because….they are practicing precisely the philosophy of their authors! Although it’s hard to believe that Pat Sajak and Alex Novak (son of Robert Novak) are on the board of Directors of a Marxist cartoon of Mr. Monopoly!

Wouldn’t it be true justice if it was discovered that Regnery fudged it’s profits to the Feds over the last 40 years to avoid tax payments…gets dunned billions…and the authors get nothing!!!

Bwahahahahahaha!

Regnery started off with some books highly critical of the military in WW2 and was vilified as Anti-American. It then started publishing right-wing materials asserting communist infiltration into the US government…the founder of the John Birch Society; William F. Buckley, etc.

Actually, the article says the southern strategy worked in that most cosmopolitan of places, the Big Apple.

“Giuliani’s eight years as New York’s chief executive exemplified a Northern adaptation of the GOP’s politically successful “Southern strategy” – the strategy playing on white resistance to and resentment of federal legislation passed in the 1960s mandating desegregation…”

You’re as right as a snake. :o)

It’s shameful, but I believe it’s starting to change. In fact, some years ago, when John Edwards beat Lauch Faircloth, a mossback of a Helmsian redneck conservative if there ever was one, it caused earth-tremors under the GOP’s temple of kneejerk “strategy”.

It took courage for Edwards to run, and it was a delight to me when he won.

Now, in his own presidential campaign, he has it to do on a national scale. It’ll be interesting, and as an Edwards supporter, all I ask is a fair reading on his policies when they’re compared with the other candidates, especially, Clinton’s, and that the primaries be allowed to serve their purpose, which is to allow; make that FORCE, the candidates to talk specifics about their policies, and about their genuine outrage (if they have any) about what bush has done, in Iraq, here, and in the world.

. . . the national organizations are going to be out of business soon. Sign the DSCC/DCCC Donor Strike Pledge here.

Done, and thanks, hadn’t seen that yet!

Punaise – Oh how does your pun-ny brain work?

ummm…intermittently?

Wait, there’s a wide range of opinions among the GOP PrezCandis on abortion, immigration, and taxes? Not from where I sit….

Sure, Giuliani is pro-choice, while most of the Republicans are anti-abortion. Even George Bush is for some form of amnesty for illegal immigrants, then you have a spectrum going all the way to pure xenophobia in Tom Tancredo. Ron Paul wants to eliminate the IRS, while Romney wants some form of mandated health care coverage, which is effectively a tax increase. What range of opinions do you see on these issues on the Democratic side?
