Thanks for the ping. We are all forever in your debt.

But, keep all your notes...Kerry is said to having a makeover and will try for the Whitehouse again.

"They say he carried a wallet and money, but neither was taken. Ngor clearly had political enemies from his activities in Cambodia, something police were said to be checking."

"The three gang members were charged with killing Ngor during a robbery in an alley behind his Chinatown area apartment in February 1996."

Ummmm....huh?

[Liberty Wins]

On the 25 February, 1996, Dr Haing S Ngor was gunned down in front of the Chinatown apartment he used in Los Angeles. Just two days later, three 19-year-old boys, members of a local gang, were arrested and charged with the murder, which was apparently a simple robbery gone wrong. Haing was shot after refusing to hand over a locket, holding a photo of his late wife.

A wasted life? Not if you take the words of Haing himself. In an interview with the New York Times on the subject of The Killing Fields, Haing is quoted as having said:

"If I die from now on, OK! This film will go on for a hundred years."

- Dr Haing S Ngor - 1950-1996

A courageous, tragic figure. Haing, a doctor and obstetrician, was forced to look on helplessly as his wife died during premature labour following a beating received from Khmer Rouge soldiers.

Another murder to be laid at the door of leftism.

Truly, "liberals'" hands drip with the blood of the innocent.

So, they panicked and didn't take his wallet and money? Could happen, I guess.

And let us not forget, O'Neill's mission had been to expose Kerry's VN lies for at least 30 years.

[MEG33]

Indeed..

Video link to O'Neill / Lawerence O'Donnell (eh)"interview". They should've jerked O'Donnell off his chair and threw him out of the building on the spot.

Toward the end of the dinner, we asked Mr. O'Neill whether he has thought of converting his fame from the Swiftboats into a career in politics, perhaps running for the Senate from Texas. It turns out he has been all his life a champion debater. But he made it clear, as he had done earlier during the dinner, that he and his comrades in the Swiftboat Veterans were in it not for the politics but for the honor of their fellow veterans of Vietnam and that what they were going to do now was what they had been doing before they were interrupted - to go home, back to the families and jobs to which they'd been devoting themselves since the war.

Thank you Swifties.

Dith Pran is alive. Still works for the Times and gives lectures~which in his case, should be called "lessons".

[OldFriend]

He was invited to my daughter's high school years ago and made quite an impression on the students.

Amazing that he was invited there as it was a lefty school.

Wonders never cease.
