News Is America Shifting Right with Brownback's 2008 Bid?

So what happens if the boss decides he doesn't want to take the rap for something his employee wrote, and calls it a forgery (which it sort of seems like)? Or if there's a legal mechanism in place to prevent that, what happens when the employee decides he doesn't like his boss very much and deliberately says something unwise under his boss' name?

I had the reverse situation. I had a business-owner boss that used to send out letters over my signature. The problem was that the jerk was a blowhard, and had no concept of proper usage in English. He would use the word "subsequently" 20 times a day, when he needed the word "consequently" or "therefore". If you or I could express a thought in a few well-chosen words, he would drag it out to multiple paragraphs (with lots of indented index letters and numbers) with sesquipedilian words and even made-up words. He sent out letters over my signature that made me look like a moron. Before I took over the firearms/militaria division (and more than doubled the profitability of the company) I didn't have a problem, but after achieving success in that regard, he jumped in and tried to "personalize" my customer contacts, much to the consternation of customers with whom I had already established trusted relationships. When you are dealing with a collector who had spent the last 50 years accumulating a world-class collection of militaria and who likes you, the very last thing you need is for your boss to jump in with both feet and screw the deal.
