Democrat Spin And The Darwin Awards…A Double-Dip

I found this wonderful post at Anti-Mullah!
First a snippet from the Democrat Spin aspect.

Judy Wallman, a professional genealogy researcher in southern California, was doing some personal work on her own family tree.

She discovered that 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 e-mailed Senator Harry Reid for information about their great-great uncle.

Believe it or not, Harry Reid’s staff sent back the following biographical sketch for her genealogy research, DESCRIBING THE UNCLE’S ABOVE EVENTS:

Next up in the link, the Top Ten Darwin Award Winners for 2008.
I’ll provide number ten, the ascending order increases in hilarity.
*CAUTION*
**SPEW ALERT**

10. When a man attempted to siphon gasoline from a motor home parked on a Seattle street, he got much more than he bargained for.

Police arrived at the scene to find a very sick man curled up next to a motor home near spilled sewage.

A police spokesman said that the man admitted to trying to steal gasoline and plugged his siphon hose into the motor home’s sewage tank by mistake.

The owner of the vehicle declined to press charges saying that it was the best laugh he’d ever had.

Here’s the link!
Go forth, now, and spew to your hearts content.

  1. I nominate Pat for a Darwin Award, in light of being completely busted for his fake lesbian daughter claim two weeks ago. Another reader pointed out that Pottyboy had earlier claimed he was in his early thirties, thus making an adult lesbian daughter all the more implausible. Then Pottyboy disappeared for almost two weeks, purportedly to make up some new bullshit sob sympathy story.

  3. No one is smarter than their criteria…

    Though the election is over, Gov. Sarah is being attacked by the leftist-humanists because they fear her re-appearance on a future ballot. They are afraid and rightly so! She is a perceptive excellent candidate to represent the Founders Principles and our American way of life with intelligent courage.

    Additionally, since no one is smarter than their criteria, the collectivists are working from a pre-chosen mediocre (and worse) set of man-made carnal-ruled opinions that delimit perception of consequences-of-choice prior to choosing. In other words, they lack Vision. Based on a universe-sized ignorance, such devices are self-imposed, thus, the lefties can accurately and historically be defined as unintelligent.

    On the other hand, Sarah and her chosen criteria, which is far superior to any man-made system of opinion, and reasonably scares those who possess no practicing standard greater than mediocrity. Their collectivist opinion rises no higher than eyebrows – or belly-button.

    Sarah lives life governed by God’s superior transcendent principles as found in The Holy Bible. Judeo-Christian principles are the founding precepts of the greatest nation in human history; America! Including, but not limited to, Human Defined: Earth’s Choicemaker, Unique Individual Value, Personal Rights and Responsibility, and Representative Government. Add: The Creative Process is a choice-making process and functions best in Freedom.

    ( 5th Grade Lesson: God-made social criteria cannot be topped. All man-made social opinion has a ceiling! )

    ( 6th Grade Lesson: Every IQ Test is a test of one’s ability to make choices. )

    Sarah is recognized by friends and admirers a worthy representative of all that is wonderful about America. 2012 will be here shortly. Keep your eye on this courageous intelligent leader – and pray!

  4. The Reid ancestry story is a hoax (an iteration circulated earlier with Ted Stevens substituted for Reid). But Pat lying about a daughter is still true.

    Sam, the story read too good, I had my doubts, but it was funny.

  6. Had to look up the Reid story and found information similar to what Sam said. Here’s a link: http://www.snopes.com/politics/humor/horsethief.asp

    Would’ve been hilarious if true.
