POLITICAL PACKAGING
Judy Wallman, a professional genealogical
researcher, discovered that Hillary Clinton's great-great uncle, Remus
Rodham, was hanged for horse stealing and train robbery in Montana in
1889.
The only known photograph of Remus shows him
standing on the gallows. On the back of the picture is this inscription:
'Remus Rodham; 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.'
Judy e-mailed Hillary Clinton for comments.
Hillary's staff sent back the following biographical sketch:
'Remus Rodham 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 service at a
government facility, 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.'
And THAT is how it's done folks.

That would be funny if it wasn't so true.

Guess ol' Hilly's office can say what they want...doesn't make the son-of-a b**ch any less hanged, that's the bottom line. God Bless Montana, they seem to know what do with horse thieves, hope the rest of the country gets a clue (how about White House furnishings thieves?)

Hmmm... If Hillary wins I wonder if she'll bring all that stuff BACK to the White House?

Geez it's nice to know that we have friends who are NOT familiar with the ways of thieves, very refreshing pumpkinslinger, but no man, she'll just take more. If she's got your country by the short hairs, it's only a question of how much more.

Tracker, I just figured she'd want to use it while she was there. I also figure she'd take it, and more, when she left again.

Here in Montana in the town I live in, there is still the hangin tree outside of the courthouse.
you can still ride your horse into town on city sidewalks. not sure where you can park him though.
ive only seen that once last year where some teenagers rode their steads in. got them on film as they past my house.
if you ride the horse to school its up to the administrators to see to it while your getting your education
cool place i call home

Now, if we can just get Hilly to visit there, you know she won't be able to resist stealing a horse, and there ya go, problem solved.
Press Release: Senator Clinton seems to have given up the campaign trail to just hang around in front of the courthouse in this small Montana town.....

In my mom's hometown in Northern California they still ride the horses to town and they have the hitching posts on main street, which I think is really Front Street, so they have a place to stay.
