History Lesson



Have a history teacher explain this----- if they can.

Abraham Lincoln was elected to Congress in 1846.
John F. Kennedy was elected to Congress in 1946.

Abraham Lincoln was elected President in 1860.
John F. Kennedy was elected President in 1960.

Both were particularly concerned with civil rights.
Both wives lost their children while living in the White House.

Both Presidents were shot on a Friday.
Both Presidents were shot in the head.

Now it gets really weird...

Lincoln 's secretary was named Kennedy.
Kennedy's Secretary was named Lincoln.

Both were assassinated by Southerners.
Both were succeeded by Southerners named Johnson.

Andrew Johnson, who succeeded Lincoln, was born in 1808.
Lyndon Johnson, who succeeded Kennedy, was born in 1908.

John Wilkes Booth, who assassinated Lincoln, was born in 1839.
Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated Kennedy, was born in 1939.

Both assassins were known by their three names.
Both names are composed of fifteen letters.

Now hang on to your seat.

Lincoln was shot at the theater named 'Ford.'
Kennedy was shot in a car called ' Lincoln' made by 'Ford.'

Lincoln was shot in a theater and his assassin ran and hid in a warehouse.
Kennedy was shot from a warehouse and his assassin ran and hid in a theater.

Booth and Oswald were assassinated before their trials.

And here's the kicker...

A week before Lincoln was shot, he was in Monroe, Maryland
A week before Kennedy was shot, he was in Marilyn Monroe.

Creepy huh? Send this to as many people as you can, cause: Hey, this is one history lesson people don't mind reading

 

I think you really need to get out, mate.

 

This was posted last week. I hadn't seen it for years.

 

Born in 1939 he may have been. He no more assassinated Kennedy than I did.

Alcazar

 

Oh yes he did.

Ever heard of the phrase "Occam's Razor"? Put simply it means "why opt for a complicated explanation when a simpler one fits the facts?"

A television programme recently showed, by means of computer data interpretation and animation techniques only recently available to us, that one gunman definitely shot Kennedy. Furthermore, it was shown that Oswald was a good enough marksman to easily have accomplished the deed by his army marksmanship records. He was also there.

Everything else is - to put it bluntly - bollocks.

I sincerely hope this helps.

You'll always have Roswell.

 

Funny, I saw a programme recently that shows up those Warren commision claims as complete rubbish

 

Was that programme "daydreams of the unwashed, snaggle-toothed and maladjusted?"
