    IS that true about the biography? Or have I been duped again? Based on all the other BS the Dems and libs make up, I wouldn’t be surprised.

    Problem: the picture is Black Jack Ketchum, who was hanged for train robbery. Interesting footnote, the hangman screwed the pooch and tore Ketchum’s head off.

    Top of the article says – Veracity Not Implied or Guaranteed.

    This has been a meme for a very long time. I’ve seen versions with this being Hillary’s uncle, as well as Bush’s uncle.

    I’m just glad it’s back, and it’s Harry Reid this time – it sounds most authentically Reid’s family.

    Incidentally, it is always someone’s uncle. And their name is Remus.
    or – Uncle Remus.

    I hope that corrupt thieving bastard Reid knows that his family is still not welcome in Montana territory.

    “In 1889, Remus passed away during an important civic function held in his honor when the platform upon which he was standing collapsed.”

    The spin never stops…..

    and I so wanted this to be true. Oh, well not being a Democrat I can’t let emotion over ride the facts – and Harry Reid is still a sniveling, cowardly bush whacking, back stabbing scallywag.

    It also was attributed to Al Gore with a twist that the horse thief was named Chad, thus becoming th e first hanging Chad.

    Oh, come on, Roscoe and BFH… The document in question might be fake, but I’m sure it’s accurate… Just ask Dan Rather.
