The congressional staff of Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, has reneged on an agreement it had struck with WorldNetDaily to run the congressman's weekly column, which means WND will not carry the Paul commentary in the future.
Said WND CEO and Editor Joseph Farah: "Ron Paul's office made an explicit and exclusive agreement with WND to carry the congressman's weekly column. But within 48 hours after the first column ran, his office was reneging on that agreement. Since we had already publicly announced the column, promising it to our readers, and now Rep. Paul's office is breaking that agreement, WND has no choice but to make a public statement to explain why we will not be carrying the congressman's column.

"Ron Paul has a long and honorable record of congressional service," added Farah, "but his subordinates are not serving him well. In particular, his chief of staff, Tom Lizardo, was uncooperative and rude when I called him to try to straighten out this mess. Normally, those who break agreements attempt to be conciliatory about it. Not Lizardo. He was not even interested in finding an amicable solution to the dilemma he created and the compact he violated."
