Back in 1969 a group of Black Panthers decided that a fellow black panther named Alex Rackley needed to die. Rackley was suspected of disloyalty.
Rackley was first tied to a chair. Once safely immobilized, his friends tortured him for hours by, among other things, pouring boiling water on him.

When they got tired of torturing Rackley, Black Panther member, Warren Kimbo took Rackley outside and put a bullet in his head. Rackley's body was later found floating in a river about 25 miles north of New Haven, Conn.

Perhaps at this point you're curious as to what happened to these Black Panthers. In 1977, that's only eight years later, only one of the killers was still in jail.

The shooter, Warren Kimbo, managed to get a scholarship to Harvard, and became good friends with none other than Al Gore. He later became an assistant dean at an Eastern Connecticut State College. Isn't that something?

As a '60s radical you can pump a bullet into someone's head, and a few years later, in the same state, you can become an assistant college dean!

Only in America!

Erica Huggins was the lady who served the Panthers by boiling the water for Mr. Rackley's torture. Some years later Ms. Huggins was elected to a California School Board.

How in the world do you think these killers got off so easy?

Maybe it was in some part due to the efforts of two people who came to the defense of the Panthers.

These two people actually went so far as to shut down Yale University with demonstrations in defense of the accused Black Panthers during their trial.

One of these people was none other than Bill Lan Lee. Mr. Lee, or Mr. Lan Lee, as the case may be, isn't a college dean. He isn't a member of a California School Board. He is now head of the US Justice Department's Civil Rights Division, appointed by none other than Bill Clinton.

O.K., so who was the other Panther defender?

Is this other notable Panther defender now a school board member? Is this other Panther apologist now an assistant college dean?

No, neither!

The other Panther defender was, like Lee, a radical law student at Yale University at the time. She is now known as the "smartest woman in the world."

She is none other than the Democratic senator from the State of New York -- our former First Lady, the incredible Hillary Rodham Clinton.

You know the rest of the story.

They obviously knew how to manipulate, or evade the legal system.., "only in America".

Whenever I think I've 'heard it all about the Clinton's' something else comes up.

What slimeballs. I guess it makes sense that the Puerto Rican terrorists were more than just to get a few votes. Hillary had some 'unfinished business'.

Here is the truth behind this urban legend.

Interesting.

I still hate the Clintons.

And may an SUV run over Ralph Nader's foot.

the smartest woman in the world is generaly regarded as marylin vos savant last I checked. IQ around 207

Why is it you hate the Clintons, Nox? I personally liked President Clinton. Hillary, I could do without. Though we both may have to get use to her in the future....

It all began with "I smoked, but didn't inhale".

The one thousand FBI files didn't help.

The billing records.

Whitewater....especially the $10,000 cashiers check in the van.

Vince Foster's suicide.

Gennifer et al.

The complaints about the Ken Starr $40 million and the $40 million for the China trip alone.

The "Wag the Dog" with Sudan.

The pardons.

The last minute Executive Orders.

"I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinsky".

"It all depends on what the definition of is is".

These are just a few of the reasons that come to mind and anyway I hate remembering all of the reasons. I'm glad you like him...I guess.
