By which time I'd already written that - I'm not sure why it didn't pick it up.

Weird. Anyway, was it ever officially confirmed that the Provos were behind the horse-napping?

Nope. And given that the only source claiming that is a Provo, the reliability of the claim (or lack thereof) is self-evident. Personally I reckon Lord Lucan was responsible.

Why do you doubt a Provo saying that it was the Provos, if the Provisional IRA as a group never claimed responsibility? The method, the motive (a desperate need for cash to fund arms purchases,) and the supposed killing stemming from the horse panicking and the unfamiliarity with horses of the kidnappers all agree with the PIRA theory.

The sad thing is that even those comments by Romney look completely rational compared to some of the things Santorum has said.

It reminds me of Chuck's Latent Image review, when he stopped comparing show-Janeway with psycho-Janeway when psycho-Janeway's solution was more restrained and humane.

Yeah, it's kind of telling about the way things are going over here when our biggest supporter in Europe is Geert Wilders.

The only one I got wrong was number 13.
I am almost completely probably sure that Geert would not support President Obama's administration.

Of course he wouldn't - Wilder's about as right-wing as a Western European politician gets. But he has recently stated that the U.S. is the "last bastion" of the West against global "Islamization."

He's got some competition for that label - Griffin and the Le Pens spring to mind.
