Curmudgeonly & Skeptical presents Boned Jello

Harvey
Conveniently Forgotten Facts.
Back in 1969 a group of Black Panthers decided that
a fellow black
panther named Alex Rackley needed to die. Rackley
was suspected of
disloyalty. Rackley was first tied to a chair. Once
safely
immobilized, his friends tortured him for hours by, among other
things, pouring boiling water on him.
When they got tired of torturing Rackley, Black Panther
member,
Warren Kimbro took Rackley outside and put a bullet in his
head.
Rackley's body was later found floating in a river about 25 miles north
of New Haven, Connecticut .
Perhaps at this point you're curious as to what happened
to these Black Panthers?
In 1977, that's only eight years later, only one of
the killers was still in jail.
The shooter, Warren Kimbro, managed to get a scholarship to
Harvard
and became good friends with none other than Al Gore.
He later became
an assistant dean at an Eastern Connecticut State
College.
Isn't that something!!!
As a '60s radical you can pump a bullet into someone's
head and, a
few years later, in the same state, you can become an
assistant
college dean!
Only in America !!!
Erica Huggins was the woman who served the Panthers by
boiling the
water for Mr. Rackley's torture .. Some years later
Ms. Huggins was
elected to a California School Board.
How in the world do you think these killers got off so easily?
Maybe it was in some part due to the efforts of two people
who came to the defense of the Panthers.
These two people actually went so far as to shut down Yale
University with demonstrations in defense of the accused
Black
Panthers during their trial.
One of these people was none other than Bill Lan
Lee. Mr. Lee, or
Mr. Lan Lee, as the case may be, isn't a college dean. He
isn't a
member of a California School Board. He is now head of the
United
States Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, appointed by
none
other than Bill Clinton.
O.K., so who was the other Panther defender? Is
this other notable
Panther defender now a school board member? Is this other
Panther
apologist now an assistant college dean?
No, neither!
The other Panther defender was, like Lee, a radical law
student at
Yale University at the time. She is now known as The "smartest
woman
in the world." She is none other than the former Secretary
of State
and former Democratic senator from the State of New York ---- the
former First Lady, the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton .
And now, as Paul Harvey said; "You know the rest of the
story".
Pass this on!
This deserves the widest possible press.
Also remember it when she runs for President!
Mark S. Gilstrap
Member of the Kansas Senate
1997-2008

A Hero
A
quote from a man I TRY to emulate. Samuel Adams. He was a poor man, and
terrible with his own finances, but he was one of the most respected
men amongst his peers. So much that the residents of his colony pooled
their money to buy him a suit (his first ever) after he was elected to
Congress. He went there and was one of the best stewards of OTHER
people's money ever. If only we had him now! And NO he did not brew
beer!
In a state of tranquillity, wealth, and luxury, our descendants would
forget the arts of war and the noble activity and zeal which made their
ancestors invincible. Every art of corruption would be employed to
loosen the bond of union which renders our resistance formidable. When
the spirit of liberty, which now animates our hearts and gives success
to our arms, is extinct, our numbers will accelerate our ruin and render
us easier victims to tyranny. If ye love wealth better than liberty,
the tranquillity of servitude than the animating contest of freedom—go
from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick
the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may
posterity forget that ye were our countrymen! - Samuel Adams

These three statements tell you a lot about our government and our
culture:
1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few
lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a
few lunatics. Funny how that works.
And another statement for consideration--
2. We constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of
money. How come we never hear about welfare running out of money?
What's interesting is the first group "worked for" their money, but the
second didn't.
Finally ..

I’ll say it again: These Tea Party groups made the mistake of wanting to participate in the process of legitimization in the first place.
Had they NOT applied for tax-exempt/charity status, this wouldn’t have happened to them. And had they been true to their principles, they would not have applied to join the same club they insist they want to burn down. - - Five Feet of Fury

AMERICAN DIGEST Essays, News, Notes, and Quotes: Conservatives expend tremendous effort changing elected officials every other November — and then are surprised that it doesn't make much difference.
Culture trumps politics — which is why, once the question's been settled culturally, conservatives are reduced to playing catch-up, twisting themselves into pretzels to explain (including in the pages of this magazine) why gay marriage is really conservative after all, or why 30 million unskilled immigrants with a majority of births out of wedlock are "natural allies" of the Republican party. - - Mark SteynOnline

There was a man that lived by the river. He heard a radio
report that the river was going to rush up and flood the town, and that
the all the residents should evacuate their homes. But the man said,
"I'm religious. I pray. God loves me. God will save me." The waters rose
up. A guy in a rowboat came along and he shouted, "Hey, hey you, you in
there. The town is flooding. Let me take you to safety." But the man
shouted back, "I'm religious. I pray. God loves me. God will save me." A
helicopter was hovering overhead and a guy with a megaphone shouted,
"Hey you, you down there. The town is flooding. Let me drop this ladder
and I'll take you to safety." But the man shouted back that he was
religious, that he prayed, that God loved him and that God will take him
to safety. Well... the man drowned. And standing at the gates of St.
Peter he demanded an audience with God. "Lord," he said, "I'm a
religious man, I pray, I thought you loved me. Why did this happen?" God
said, "I sent you a radio report, a helicopter, and a guy in a rowboat.
What the hell are you doing here?"
Indeed, God gives you the opportunities. It's up to you as to how you
take advantage of them. You have free will so choose wisely!

AMERICAN DIGEST Essays, News, Notes, and Quotes: Peace, peace! he is not dead, he doth not sleep -
He hath awakened from the dream of life -
'Tis we, who lost in stormy visions, keep
With phantoms an unprofitable strife,
And in mad trance, strike with our spirit's knife
Invulnerable nothings. -We decay
Like corpses in a charnel; fear and grief
Convulse us and consume us day by day,
And cold hopes swarm like worms within our living clay.
Adonais by Percy Bysshe Shelley

The Top 40: Comment on Hillary-- Because Vagina! "What Difference At This Point Does It Make? ": But Hillary has, in fact, told us over and over again that she has severe memory problems. The records show that she has repeatedly said, "I don't remember, I can't remember, I have no recollection of that event, I don't know, and I have no idea." She even made thousands of dollars in the cattle futures market but doesn't remember how she did it. (Myself, I would have taken notes.) Would she be able to remember her Secret Service Code name? Nuclear codes? Bill's email account password?
