acroyearThe Loom : Jack Kemp and Phyllis Schlafly--One Mind, or One Ghost Writer?:
update - the Town Hall editors are the ones that suck ;-). It was supposed to be labeled a "guest columnist" by Shlafly as Kemp was on Vacation, but it went in wrong and the editor didn't catch it.
The images go to screenshots of Kemp's column I linked to from the 21st, and Schlafly's possible original from the 16th (which now it seems may have been published as early as August 6th).Cut-and-paste creationism?
Yesterday I pointed readers to a column attacking evolution by Jack Kemp on the web site Town Hall. Today a sharp-eyed commenter pointed out that it is almost entirely identical to a column from Phyllis Schlafly from August 16 on the Eagle Forum. I don't know if these pages are going to be pulled down or otherwise altered if word gets out, so here's a screengrab of Kemp and of Schlafly. It looks pretty much word for word identical to me. You be the judge...
