[edit] Citation no longer needed

I found a page dealing with this, therefore I no longer need your guys' help thanks though TheGreatLiberator 15:57, 22 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citing Wikipedia Page

I am doing a report on outsourcing, and I used an article of Roberts' creation in it, for background on the man himself, I used this page, does anyone know how I would site this in my Works Cited Page and in Paranthetical citation, in MLA Format?

[edit] Reagan Conservative?

"He is considered to be a Reagan conservative." Is it really fair or accuarate to call this guy a "Reagan conservative" when, according to the article, he believes 9/11 was an "inside job" and that the American media is controlled by Zionists? He sounds a bit more right-wing than Reagan. Not to mention that it makes use of the weasel words "he is considered". I propose that this sentence be removed.

A statement from him: "A number of readers have asked me when did I undergo my epiphany, abandon right-wing Reaganism and become an apostle of truth and justice." -PCR [1]

[edit] Still A conservative

The above cited statement with the sentence following included:

A number of readers have asked me when did I undergo my epiphany, abandon right-wing Reaganism and become an apostle of truth and justice. I appreciate the friendly sentiment, but there is a great deal of misconception in the question.

[edit] Same source

I've listed, within the article, the same source four times. I'll try to come back and fix it once I remember how. Ufwuct 01:13, 13 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 911

His 911 views are not "a small issue", just look how much space he gives them and complains of the cowardice of people not allowing him to air those views more often [2]. --Striver 22:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)


He is one of the last american patriots. He should run for office w/ Ron Paul and Buchanan. SAVE THE REPUBLIC FROM THE NEOCONS!!!

A great man who cares about the welfare of his nation


[edit] Bizarre Sentences

"Roberts is also a critic of a potential Bush administration attack on Iran."

This seems like a both hideously unwieldy and potentially misleading statement. Perhaps "...is also a critic of the Bush Administration's aggressive behavior/potentially warlike stance/stated willingness to use force (any of those) towards/against Iran."

As it is, the sentence just makes me want to cry a little, after I laugh at the image of the White House Cabinet charging headlong through the desert shouting warcries. --124.176.125.129 11:15, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Alma mater?

Someone placed Paul Craig Roberts' name on the List of Georgia Institute of Technology alumni. Did he really graduate from Georgia Tech; if so, is there a source stating that? Thanks. —Disavian (talk/contribs) 17:37, 6 December 2006 (UTC)
