Attempted Ford Assassin: ‘I’m Going To Go To The Obama Thing’
FinkelBlog ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 05/28/2009 5:19:46 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

No, she’s not planning to attend a fundraiser for the president . . .

Sara Jane Moore, who in 1975 attempted to assassinate then President Gerald Ford, is out on parole after serving 32 years in prison. Asked by Matt Lauer on Today this morning what she would say to people who think that an attempted presidential assassin should spent the rest of her life in jail, her response began with this cryptic remark:

“Well, I’m going to go to the Obama thing.”

"Why on earth would anyone put this woman on TV?

You're kidding right? She tried to kill a Republican President. In some virtually all media circles, she's a hero.

Look for her to be added to the NYT's editorial board, at least.

Ooops. It was Lynette Fromme that was “Squeaky”.

But what next? A Manson family reunion tour???

Orchestrated by Ayers’ wife Bernadine Dohrn?

She expressed admiration for the psychos that stuck forks in the bellies of those squirming capitalist pigs and used their blood to write revolutionary screeds on their living room wall.

And two years on Mars, apparently. She definitely was not the lame, they caught her immediately.

"Maybe she is just bat turd crazy.

Wiki says she was married and divorced five times before the assassination attempt. My guess is that your diagnosis is spot on.

Incidentally, wiki also says that she escaped from Alderson Prison Camp in the late '70s. Alderson is known as "Camp Cupcake", and is where Martha Stewart also did time.

that’s not Squeaky

Squeaky is Lynette Fromm

Lynette tried to slice the throat of my (deceased) Tae Kwon Do Instructers younger brother in Maryland in 1973.

He whacked her down, but almost died, had to hold is jugular in while he almost bled out on the way to the hospital.

I don’t think it was cryptic. I think she’s referring to GITMO and holding prisoners without a trial etc.

Perhaps, although Obama isn’t promising to give all GITMO prisoners a trial.

Well, her target WAS a Republican,
so, to a leftist, that’s OK.

That’s a fascinating part of the story that I never knew. How did the situation start?

Yes, that was the sarcastic point I was trying to make. While I was watching the absolutely bizarre interview this morning, I was thinking the same thing CondorFlight mentioned, "Why in the world is this woman being interviewed?"

She actually said that she needed to get permission from her PO to do the interview. Why would they allow that? A free, all expenses paid trip to New York City on NBC's dime?

I hope, as a condition of her parole, she was barred from enjoying any financial gain from her unconscionable actions. I certainly don't want to hear about her new "book deal".

The Obama thing: take advantage of every opportunity this country offers, use anyone who can advance your political career regardless of their background, play dirty politics, get involved with criminals for personal gain, and then lie your way to the presidency.

Right ... but talks about “our values” and honoring our laws and that’s why we shouldn’t waterboard and that’s why we need to close Gitmo etc. So I think she was jumping off of those statements when she referenced the Obama thing.
