    Default Hillary's Humour

    A mate just sent me this.........
    THIS IS PRICELESS SPIN . . .
    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 of professional image adjusters 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!

    Don't have much time for Hillary, but even so I think this ought to be in the jokes section, cos it ain't exactly 100% factually precise....

    Well you'd have to be a bit of an idiot to try it on, and I wouldn't credit it to Hillary.
    Her husband would be another matter though. You can tell that he's 'spinning' by the fact that his lips start moving. 'I did not have blah blah blah'
