Subject: RE: BS: Bush is a suicide bomber for the World! From: GUEST,Clint Keller Date: 17 Feb 04 - 03:34 AM I read the column by Mr. Blankley and when I got to the part about Bush's greatness being shown by realiziing that it's unnecessary & undesirable to listen to the UN I first thought, Gee, I always believed (along with the well-known Founders) that a decent respect for the opinions of mankind was a good thing, and my second thought was that this puts me 200-odd years more conservative than DougR. Life is full of surprises. clint |

Subject: RE: BS: Bush is a suicide bomber for the World! From: Wolfgang Date: 18 Feb 04 - 05:11 AM Pig Fat story at snopes my summary: Status of that story (originating in the Phillipines long before the foundation of Israel) is undetermined. To me it seems that a very old story (which might have a grain of truth in it or not) is retold and adapted to the new times. I don't believe the present version. Wolfgang |

Subject: RE: BS: Bush is a suicide bomber for the World! From: Peace Date: 19 Feb 04 - 12:43 PM I heard that something similar took place in India (Sepoy Revolt, 1850?). Had to do with rubbing rendered pig fat on weapons or something like that. Heard or read it years and years ago. (My memory ain't what it used to be and never was.) One of those stories that improves with age I guess. |

Subject: RE: BS: Bush is a suicide bomber for the World! From: GUEST,Teribus Date: 19 Feb 04 - 04:14 PM Brucie, I think that was something to do with greased cartridge paper. The drill was you had to bite the end with the ball in it off, prime the firing pan and pour the rest of the powder down the muzzle, then spit the ball and paper into the muzzle and ram the ball home. |
