No matter what side of the AISLE you're on, THIS is FUNNY! Judy Wallman, a professional genealogy researcher in southern California , was doing some personal work on her own family tree. She discovered that Senator Harry Reid's great-great uncle, Remus Reid, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Montana in 1889. Both Judy and Harry Reid share this common ancestor.The only known photograph of Remus shows him standing on the gallows in Montana territory:

On the back of the picture Judy obtained during her research is this inscription: 'Remus Reid, horse thief, sent to Montana Territorial Prison 1885, escaped 1887, robbed the Montana Flyer six times. Caught by Pinkerton detectives, convicted and hanged in 1889.' So Judy recently e-mailed Senator Harry Reid for information about their great-great uncle.

Harry Reid:
graphic
Believe it or not, Harry Reid's staff sent back the following biographical sketch for her genealogy research:

"Remus Reid was a famous cowboy in the Montana Territory . His business empire grew to include acquisition of valuable equestrian assets and intimate dealings with the Montana railroad. Beginning in 1883, he devoted several years of his life to government service, finally taking leave to resume his dealings with the railroad. In 1887, he was a key player in a vital investigation run by the renowned Pinkerton Detective Agency. In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honor when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed."
NOW THAT's how it's done, Folks! That's real POLITICAL SPIN !!!

Dear NomoGraph,
I thought you were ignoring me since the last time we discussed your dominant negativity.
I pray Pat.net readers find my intentions are constructive, and help expose "Wag the Dog" & many other "spin" type stories.
Those same readers may find your intentions as destructive and merely an attempt to build your own ego.
Were you attempting to be constructive ?

It's a bit labored for the punchline, although half decent.

As for the politics, even if it were a true story, it's more honorable to be a horse thief than a Pinkerton. The Pinkerton Detective Agency is the most evil organization in American history with the possible exceptions of the KKK and NAMBLA.

It is kinda long, true or not, I dunno if time exists

I just luv how the edited story of a hanged thief could be polished up to look like some civic accomplishment. If you believe in history, you have never taken statements from two different witness's at the scene of a traffic accident.
How exactly did Obama get that Nobel peace prize again ? Oh yeah, he promised peace in the middle east.

Gubmint will never run out of promises to the gullible. Could they fix Real Estate ?

I here you Nomo. Gimme a minute to figure out how to respond in a positive way.

I always found the series of pictures that compaired GWB with a chimp to be pretty darn funny. Ofcourse, if the exact same series of chimp pics were ran with today's POTUS, there may be a slight problem.

Nomo: The story is fake. Hillary Clinton, Al Gore, and Harry Reid ALL had an Uncle Remus who was hanged?

Of course they did. Secretly, Hillary, Al, and Harry are all related. There's just been a big conspiracy to cover it up! ;-)

It's advisable to do your own research on this kind of claim. You still want to believe it really badly, right ?

It all has to do with context. If you did the chimp picts with Obama, people would think that you are intending to make the statement that blacks are subhuman. With GWB, it was obvious that the comparison was based on GWB's intelligence, not his ethnic background.

Besides, the chimp thing wouldn't work with Obama. He's evil like Bush, but not retarded like Bush.

If you want to make fun of one of Obama's character flaws, I'd recommend going with the fact that he has no backbone.

I thought it was about the fact that he really did look a little bit chimp like.

Thank You.
I am not even curios about the man nor his family. This post is intended to show how writers manufacture history, regardless of the facts.
Was there really a holocaust ?
Ya got to see "Wag the Dog" to appreciate modern spin benefiting gubmint and or the affluent.

Fast forward twenty years and imagine what history will report of this administrations success at saving the economy. Will it suggest the can was kicked ? Might history show bankers prospered while millions of families went homeless ?
Will the fraud be covered up ?
Will there be another spike that makes this look insignificant ?

You really are a sick deranged fuck.

I guess you are NOT a LIBRA.
This is a compliment from you ?

13   Dan8267   2012 Apr 1, 6:10am  

WTF is a libra? Light bra?

14   Bap33   2012 Apr 1, 11:36am  

that bra fixes the whole scared of the dark issue pretty well.

I thought the chip pix were due to close match of facial expressions, like marcus said, and not about intellect. Bush didn't read a telle and Lord Barry does. I guess that does show the Lord Barry is smart enough to have someone else stack the bullshit that he is supposed to say, where GWB just stacked his shit all by himself.

15   TMAC54   2012 Apr 1, 11:47am  

Let's stop thinkin about how to change the light bulbs ! You boobs need to keep focused on gubmint remediation !

Both Obama and Bush are puppets. Their strings are pulled by much more powerful men.

Lets see.

Is there really an atom bomb?

Is the Federal Reserve a government agency?

Did we invade Iraq to find terrorists?

Did Hitler keep all the WW2 prisioners in his bunker?

Is China, Russia and Iran pumping Iraqi oil into an Iranian Oil refinery then out to the respective countries?

Is taxation legal and does it have any force?

Does a fool still pay for 30 years on a house that took only 3 months to build?

Is usury legal in Israel and do they have 17 banks? Home loans, credit cards, boat loans, auto loans, small business loans, commercial loans etc. ?

Is land for sale in Israel? Do they have porn in Israel?

Would they really finance a fake return to Israel with all kinds of characters that aren't hebrew. To establish another outlet for usury and finance. Also an axsis for every kind of war on people all around them. Please put the Iran-Israel show on that will last for only 2 days like the miraculous 6 and 7 day war. I have been waiting to see that one. Where God comes a-blazin out and smokes all his enemies and put them in such dire fear that they will shake and never strike back. Yes some people are that fucking gullible. Believe it or not. All the little nuke players love that little story. Cause well God broke wind and there was Israel and nuclear powers. It was a massive fart and it still stinks. All of this lends stablity to the END OF THE DAYS and entrenchment for the players as the establishment countries of people of the end of the days. Go find yourself some other fucking tourist. Im not buying.

When you can print all the paper you want. When its the only legal means of trade. You can get ANYONE to say just about anything you want them to even cock a doddle do. As you can see you can get a fool to do just about anything for paper.

That's just more propaganda. They all have people that help them with their speeches. But obviously Obama can write a better speech all by himself that Bush could. As for teleprompter, that's jst because Bush didn't do it well, and preferred note cards.

Government debt versus GDP is a different chart:

I don't think all that private-sector debt flapping over the abyss has a signature line on the loan package reading Barack Obama.

Me too.


I once woke up in the dark with a bad hangover, a fat chick next to me, and a mouthful of flour.

This is every third sunday for me...I take back everything negative I've ever thought about you.

What happened with the flour?

21   Bap33   2012 Apr 2, 8:58am  

I though her name was Flower

No Flour is what he rolled her in.
