It would be nice if the Editors took a opportunity to talk to Bill K. and just ask him where he got the quote.    I've been sent many emails over the years through strings of personal contacts that contain exactly this kind of information.. "Obama brings sixth fleet and spends 2 trillions dollar in Hawaii.....).   

So knowing for fact that there intentional deceptions in large quantity on several types of media, you would think a quality newspaper like the RG would chase this story a little farther.  If Bill is willing that is.
