Subject: SHIFTY RODHAM
  

      NOW YOU KNOW THE REST OF THE    STORY.---------PRICELESS----BOB
       
    Judy Wallman, a    professional genealogical researcher, recently
uncovered 
records indicating that    Hillary Rodham Clinton's great-great uncle,
"Shifty" 
Rodham, was hanged as a    horse thief and train robbery in the Montana
Territory 
in 1889. 
 
The only known    photograph of "Shifty" Rodham shows him standing on the 
gallows prior to being    hung. The following information was hand written
on the 
back of that photograph:    "Shifty" Rodham, horse thief, sent to Montana 
Territorial Prison 1885.    Released 1887. Arrested by Pinkerton detectives
while 
trying to rob a Montana    Railroad Company train in 1888. Convicted and
hanged in 
1889." 
 
Ms. Wallman forwarded    these records and the photograph, along with a
request 
for her comments, to    Hillary Clinton at her "Hilary for President"
office. 
Hillary's staff of    professional image adjusters responded with the
following 
biographical    outline: 
 
"Shifty" Rodham was a    famous cowboy in the Montana Territory. His
business 
empire grew to include    the acquisition of valuable equestrian assets. 
Additionally, he had    close dealings with the Montana Railroad Company. 
Beginning in 1885, he    devoted several years of his life to service at a 
government facility. In    1887 he took leave to commence dealings with the 
railroad. In 1886, he    was a key player in an important investigation by
the 
renowned Pinkerton    Detective Agency, which ultimately became the United
States 
Secret Service. In 1889,    "Shifty" Rodham passed away when the platform,
upon 
which he had been    standing, collapsed during an important civic function
that 
was being held in his    honor." 
 



We can't change the angle of the wind....but we can adjust our sails.
