Maybe Donald Trump doesn't want the American people to know that he's paid nothing in federal taxes, because the only years that anybody's ever seen were a couple of years when he had to turn them over to state authorities when he was trying to get a casino license, and they showed he didn't pay any federal income tax.

Ebooks have many advantages - publishers don't have to make guesses about how many books to print, books need never go out of print, and hard-to-find books can be easily available. So far, the only limitation seems to be finding a way for the writer to be paid.

Cant is always rather nauseating but before we condemn political hypocrisy, let us remember that it is the tribute paid by men of leather to men of God, and that the acting of the part of someone better than oneself may actually commit one to a course of behavior perceptibly less evil than what would be normal and natural in an avowed cynic.
