Talk:Straw purchase

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Straw purchase is more than likely a contraction of "Straw Man" purchase. I guess I'd need some cites before fixing it.

The reason I named the article "straw purchase" is because that is the standard term used by the BAFTE. --"DICK" CHENEY 00:59, 18 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Etymology

Can anyone clarify etymology of the term? I tried to dig the Internet, googled here and there, but all the same -- to no avail. --195.225.129.10 07:13, 18 September 2005 (UTC)

This entry tells me nothing. can anyone please clarify the term?
