[edit] Bull**** article?

There are more sub-categories than there are references, and most of the uncited material is contradictory to what I know about Mr. Hilton. If someone had typed a completely unsourced article in support of this guy, I know damn well the wiki-mafia would have deleted it in less than a minute. 12.205.138.36 (talk) 23:25, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Former chief of staff for Bob Dole?

Is there a source for the claim that Hilton is a "former chief of staff for Bob Dole?" Googling for both men's names finds a variety of claimed connections between the two men, such as: "close colleague of Bob Dole,"[1] "a former U.S. Senate Attorney and aide to U.S. Senator Bob Dole,"[2] "a former Dole staff member,"[3] "former chief of staff for former Republican presidential candidate Bob Dole,"[4] "Bob Dole's former chief of staff,"[5] and "a former aide to Bob Dole."[6] (I also found a page calling him a "friend" of Bob Dole, but I've forgotten where that that was.) The claim that he was Dole's chief of staff seems to come from 911 conspiracy nut sites and sites that used this Wikipedia article as their source. None that I found resemble a reliable source. The dubious sourcing, and the inconsistency of the various claims, leads me to wonder whether it is true. Does anyone know? NCdave (talk) 20:43, 17 February 2008 (UTC)
