Default 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 Kimbo 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, Conn.
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 lady 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 easy?
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 US 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 schoolboard 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 Democratic senator from the State of New
York----our former First Lady, the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton.


Also remember it, if and when she runs for President...

I'm with you 100% ... but I have a BIG problem! After I bought my condo in Somers NY, our (then) first family bought their house in Chappaqua (sp) and its only a 15 min drive from me :(

If you can get a few members to donate, I'd sell my condo at a loss !!!! & move to NJ to be near my NJ friends :D

2 Bedroom units in our development are going for app. $3000,000 with a garage, & TWO private golf courses, 4 heated pools, gym, hot tubs, 2 Saunas, 12 tennis courts, paddle tennis. & for you ITALIANS 2 Bocci courts,

They wash your windows, twice a year, put up & remove the awning over your deck, ...etc... etc...

But the thought of Hillory living so close plain ol scares me... I just wanna live near Dennis, Mackey, Impala Joe, & all the GOOD guys..

PS I WOULD miss Ralph, he is a friend, & the type thats hard to find..

Common help a forum member.... ;) Make an offer, I may even throw in the Vette.. :)
