I was all aghast when i saw this and posted without thought in the Breaking News forum.
Now people tell me this is rumor, not news.  :thatsright:
Serves me right for not thinking before I post.

The worst thing is, this rumor is all over the Ron Paul forums! I am such a  :loser:

PLEASE! Can a mod put me outa my misery and delete the thread?  Thanks!

I'm not sure, so don't take this as Gospel, but please check.

I believe an original poster of a comment can delete his own comment; a moderator doesn't have to do that (I'm a moderator, but as your comment was posted in a forum I'm restricted from moderating, I can't do it myself).

But I believe one can delete his own posts.

Open that thread and look at your comment, at the upper-right hand corner, and there might be a "delete" or "remove" button (but on your comments only; it won't appear on others' comments).

Don't take this as Gospel, but give it a look-see.

It happens; I break out into a cold sweat when I think of all the times the primitives on Skins's island fooled me.
