Thread Name: NO BS: Republican Chicanery
Subject: RE: NO BS: Republican Chicanery
Anyone besides me remember the famous "Canuck" letter? Nixons dirty tricks dept. stole some of Senator Ed Muskies stationary and wrote a very inflamatory letter that was unfavorable to French Americans. That rat bastard at the Union Leader spred stories that Jane Muskie told dirty stories, and when Muskie went to confront him, the coward didnt have the balls to show his face. What appeared to be weeping was actually extreme anger. But, it worked. Ed played right into the hands of those dirty bastards. No man was ever more honorable than Ed Muskie, but, he went into the pig pen, and, he got dirty. That incident may have lost the election by the ignorant bastards who voted for the republicans that year.
