That's a good suggestion, so I looked into it. The National Review, unfortunately, doesn't provide his email address. I then looked under the "contact us" link but there is no category there that I could expect would provide contact with him. I then performed a search for him. He accepts email, but will not respond unless I am part of the second congressional district in MI (I'm not).

Soooo, I went another route – I figured if he made statements with specific references they must have come from somewhere. I found the article. He didn’t lie; the people at the USPS did, at least that is the most logical conclusion I can draw. The company that mailed the books sent them too early, and the boxes were not marked so that it was obvious what they were (as were the boxes from Amazon). No one in the USPS was going to loose their job over it, but those involved said they may in order to get the books back and execute a cya on behalf of the book seller (it was their error).

I sit corrected. Had I only done my fact checking before I published…
