Fwd: FW: The SPIN
No matter what side of the AISLE you're on, THIS is FUNNY.
Judy Walkman, 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:
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.

WHAT A CHICAGO TRIBUNE CARTOONIST KNEW IN 1934….. THAT WE CAN'T COMPREHEND TODAY??
IT'S COMING TO BARE..!!
Political Cartoon From 1934
A Marxist Moment: Notice the sign on the side of the cart reading, "Young Pinkies(Commies) From Columbia and Harvard" and then Stalin in the bottom right corner stating, "How Red The Sunrise Is Getting.". Add this to the rest of the cartoon and we shouldn't be scared ...... we should be emboldened to pass this on to help others understand the dire situation that our nation is in. Just three months left to assure our nation a new course.....
Stunning cartoon from 1934
This cartoon was in the Chicago Tribune in 1934. Look carefully at the plan of action in the lower left corner.
"Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it."
