I Should Know Better Than To Announce This

March 10th, 2008

But I’ll be offline for the next week or so.  Please, nobody feed Laurie.  It’ll only encourage her to keep coming around.

    Okay-okay. Although I admit that I’ve come more and more to resemble a blimp on stilts, making fun of me is cruel, Benjamin.

    After all, I can’t help it that I’m a fat slob with a compulsive eating disorder based on a deep, deep lack of self-esteem, and have developed a special fondness for Hostess Ding-Dongs (I’ve been known to gorge myself on them to the point that I barf all over Fred).

    Show a little compassion once in a while, won’t you?

    STILTS??? THAT’S how you imagine your legs?

    Good god, Scrunt, get yourself a clue. Like the amount you end up spending on vaseline every week, just trying to keep the insides of those humongously bloated thighs of yours lubricated enough that they don’t get rubbed raw every time you try to walk…

    Oops. My bad.

    “Waddle” would plainly be the word with which to accuratey describe your pathetic attempts at ambulatory motion.

    Rama, I don’t think that was actually the Scrunt. I think it was somebody making some pretty clever and cruel fun of her.

    Maybe so, Tyndale, but facts are facts, and you’ll have to admit that the [self-]description rang true. Me? I’m investing all my money in a combination vaseline outlet/Ding Dong franchise.

    How could I go wrong with the Scunt as a customer?

    Ha! It wasn’t me. :-D But seriously, if you folks are looking for some real blubber, there was a woman at the Columbus Day protest who is about my height and weighed 245 pounds, according to her arrest record. Damn! That’s nearly 100 pounds more than me! Think of all the fuel she’d provide. Unfortunately, she was only 24 and you might have to wait longer to get to it. Was that MK?

    I think it depends on your bone structure. Are you thin or heavyset? I weigh like 170 and am slightly overweight but can still do a chin up. My grandfather (from the family that helped drive away the Pawnee around 1850?, and earlier around 1725 the Pequawkets) was a Cornhusker on their 1916 team.

    “Bruce Ellison – Leonard Peltier’s long-standing lawyer and defender. Ellison has been implicated in the murder of Anna Mae Pictou Aquash by several AIM members who place him at meetings where Aquash’s fate was discussed. When questioned before grand juries, Ellison has repeatedly invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination.”—Joe and John Trimbach

    “Ken Tilsen – Former member of the American Communist Party and founder of the Wounded Knee Legal Defense Offense Committee. Tilsen is suspected of involvement in the murder cover-up of Aquash after acquiring the victim’s wallet. Tilsen, like Ellison, blames the FBI for her murder.”—Joe and John Trimbach

    Benjamin!

    You neglected to lock Snapple out prior to your time off from this blog, leaving us regulars to suffer through her obsessive rantings about Pine Ridge. :-(

    Well, at least now we all know why you delete most of her posts. I can’t even look at a Snapple beverage or advertisement without recalling her lunacy.

    Once the bona fide residents were kicked out of their homes, armed militants vied for power and enforced heavy penalties against assumed traitors. In the process, several people were allegedly murdered, including Ray Robinson, the only black male occupier seen in the village. His remains, along with the bodies of several others, are said to be buried near the village ruins. Robinson’s friend, Al Cooper, has publicly corroborated his near-death experience after AIM leaders accused him of being a snitch. One woman reported being raped, while several young, white females are believed to be among the dead. These murders have never been solved because the bodies, including Robinson’s, remain undiscovered.

    The American Indian Movement leadership ordered the execution of Anna Mae Aquash because they believed (mistakenly) that she was an FBI informant. Once convinced that she had not betrayed them, the AIM leadership concocted a series of conspiracy stories blaming the FBI for the murder. Wounded Knee Legal Defense Offense Committee lawyers were a party to the conspiracy and joined efforts to blame the killing on the FBI. (AIM lawyer and WKLDOC member Bruce Ellison was allegedly among those present at the meeting where Anna Mae’s fate was discussed by a round table of co-conspirators. Upon learning that Anna Mae was bound with rope, Ellison allegedly said, “Untie her.” Today, Ellison insists the FBI was behind the murder.) Countless authors have since parroted the lies in a series of politically-motivated books, most notably Peter Matthiessen’s In the Spirit of Crazy Horse, Ken Stern’s Loud Hawk, and Professor Ward Churchill’s Agents of Repression. These books are easily exposed as sham histories shrouded in half-truths, distortions, and shameless lies.

    December 10 (on or about), 1975: Anna Mae is carried from the Denver home of Troy Lynn Yellowwood by John Graham and Arlo Looking Cloud and put in the back of Theda Clarke’s red Pinto hatchback. Several witnesses observe that Anna Mae is bound and carried against her will. She is eventually taken to the offices of the Wounded Knee Legal Defense Offense Committee in Rapid City, where she is questioned by AIM members. Anna Mae is moved to two residences owned by Thelma Rios-Conroy. AIM leaders hold further discussions about Anne Mae’s loyalty. According to News From Indian Country sources, WKLDOC attorney Bruce Ellison is said to have encouraged the idea that Anna Mae might be an informant.

    December 12, 1975: Anna Mae is driven to the reservation home of Bill Means where AIM members Clyde Bellecourt and David Hill are said to be waiting. Later that night, Theda Clark, Arlo Looking Cloud and John Graham drive Anna Mae to a remote part of the Pine Ridge Reservation. After Looking Cloud and Graham force Anna Mae out of the car, they drag her to the edge of a cliff. Graham allegedly shoots her in the head.

    Perry Ray Robinson - Noted civil rights leader murdered by AIM members during the occupation of Wounded Knee village. Robinson’s body is buried somewhere near the village ruins, still waiting to be unearthed, as are the bodies of other victims rumored to have been murdered during the occupation.

    Have you guys seen how they’re trying to make a minister affiliated with Obama’s church into the next Ward Churchill?

  18. Snapple Says:
    March 16th, 2008 at 8:01 am

    I did not post that comment just above. This is what Ward Churchill does–steal other people’s names. That’s what he does.

  19. Snapple Says:

    “They” can’t make Rev Wright into anything he isn’t.

    He tapes his own sermons and now they are on TV.

    Senator Obama has never talked like that minister and claims he does not share those views.

    Still, I’d like to hear Senator Obama explain that a lot more since he has associated himself closely with this minister.

    A lot of white churches also repeat communist propaganda. Rev. Wright is not the only minister who does that.

    My opinion about this is here.

    http://legendofpineridge.blogspot.com/2008/03/wright-stuff.html

    You are disgusting to fake my posts. You prove all the bad things about Churchill are true.

  20. Snapple Says:
    March 16th, 2008 at 12:25 pm

    Snapple, … so, how did J and J Trimbach know what was said at this supposed meeting where they conspired to kill Anna Mae Aquash? Were they taping it, or did they have people report back to them what was said?

    It is true, many ministers are embarrassing. I grew up near this church, and the parents of the neighbor kids who attended their private school tended to be somewhat sanctimonious, and some tried to get my parents to send us to their bible camps.

  21. Snapple Says:
    March 16th, 2008 at 3:06 pm

    Also, which white churches repeat communist propaganda? The catholics? Is it jesus quotes, or what communist material?

    Darlene/Ka-Mook Banks testified in court that her husband called on Feb 24, 1976, told her that they had found Anna Mae Aquash’s body.

    Authorities had found a body, but they didn’t know who it was. Dennis Banks knew.

    There’s more, but that’s one thing.

    Damn you rich! You already have your compensation.

    Damn you who are well-fed! You will know hunger.

    Damn you who laugh now! You will weep and grieve.

    Damn you when everybody speaks well of you!

    –Jesus, Luke 6:24-26

  24. Hilda Says:
    March 16th, 2008 at 5:03 pm

    It does seem very believable that Dennis Banks knew, because several people reported that he was aware of it ahead of the body discovery. But why are you sucking this long list of people who were merely members of AIM at the time into it. Did they all have huge conference calls?

    “Snapple” is actually Joseph Trimbach, Hilda. That’s all the explanation anybody should need as to why he does what he does.
