!!!Why you shouldn't vote for a Democrat!!!!

Thought you
might be interested in this forgotten bit of
information.........

It
was 1987! At a lecture the other day they were playing an old news video of
Lt.Col. Oliver North testifying at the Iran-Contra hearings during the Reagan
Administration.

There was Ollie in front of God and country getting the
third degree, but what he said was stunning!

He was being drilled by a
senator; 'Did you not recently spend close to $60,000 for a home security
system?'

Ollie replied, 'Yes, I did, Sir.'

The senator
continued, trying to get a laugh out of the audience, 'Isn't that just a little
excessive?'

'No, sir,' continued Ollie.

'No? And why not?' the
senator asked.

'Because the lives of my family and I were threatened,
sir.'

'Threatened? By whom?' the senator questioned.

'By a
terrorist, sir' Ollie answered.

'Terrorist? What terrorist could
possibly scare you that much?'

'His name is Osama bin Laden, sir' Ollie
replied.

At this point the senator tried to repeat the name, but
couldn't pronounce it, which most people back then probably couldn't. A couple
of people laughed at the attempt. Then the senator continued. Why are you so
afraid of this man?' the senator asked.

'Because, sir, he is the most
evil person alive that I know of', Ollie answered.


'And
what do you recommend we do about him?' asked the senator.

'Well, sir,
if it was up to me, I would recommend that an assassin team be formed to
eliminate him and his men from the face of the earth.'

The senator
disagreed with this approach, and that was all that was shown of the clip.



By
the way, that senator was Al Gore!

Also:


Terrorist
pilot Mohammad Atta blew up a bus in Israel
in 1986. The Israelis captured, tried and imprisoned him. As part of the
O slo agreement with the Palestinians in 1993,
Israel had to agree to release
so-called 'political prisoners.'

However, the Israelis would not release
any with blood on their hands, The American President at the time, Bill Clinton,
and his Secretary of State, Warren Christopher, 'insisted' that all prisoners be
released.

Thus Mohammad Atta was freed and eventually thanked us by
flying an airplane into Tower One of the World Trade
Center .. This was reported
by many of the American TV networks at the time that the terrorists were first
identified.

The story is true to a point.

Oliver North spent the money on a security system to protect his family from Abu Nidal not Osama Bin Ladin....

Al Gore was an idiot back then but not an idiot in the senate.

I just sent this on to the individual who passed it on to me. I instructed them (with love of course) not to send me any more info like this until they first check it out.

I think it would be wise to do some checking yourself. Let's call it what it is "A LIE"

I delete most forwarded emails.

99% of the 'informative' ones are hoaxes, ESPECIALLY the 'virus warnings'!!

There is one I came across that's true, however.

There are men who claim to be exterminators going out targeting people . They tell the person answering the door that they were called out to spray for bugs and tell them to remove their clothes before they get started.

DON'T ALLOW THEM TO SPRAY! IT'S A SCAM!

They just want to see you naked!!
