Blog Credo

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary.

Is This Real?

http://mashable.com/2012/09/05/hacker-ransom-romney-tax-returns/

Hackers allegedly broke in to Price Waterhouse and downloaded Romney's tax returns.  They will release them in three weeks unless a ransom is paid.  If someone else pays the ransom, they will release them, too.

That's strange.  PWC says it didn't happen, but they are working with the Secret Service to find out who didn't steal the returns... or something.  It's a strange story and likely false.

And if it isn't?
