I was working in Oakland when this bunch was getting started. They were criminals.

Watch for a concerted media effort to rehabilitate the image of the Black Panthers - Hillary was a strong supporter of the group during her college years and was a campus activist who demonstrated for them - by the time the whitewash is done, they will come across looking like followers of Ghandi, and she will be a hero who was far ahead of her time.

The Black Panthers tried to fight institutional racism with grass-roots action and coalition-building, not violence, said Black Panthers Party co-founder Bobby Seale at a presentation at Edgewood College Thursday night.

Really???

This is a Stalinist type rewriting of history. The MSM will be sure to jump on board.

Wow. Anyone who reads David Horowitz's book "Destructive Generation" or I suppose the many other accounts of the BP's drug-running and prostitution rings, might feel otherwise.

Well, I really need a good laugh for the start of my weekend. I was there and they are at the least thugs at worst criminals and degenerates.

You nailed it. The big boys and girls in the MSM are clearing the decks for Hillary. They are going to have to go back and rewrite small parts of the history of the sixties and seventies.

And if it doesn't work, their fall back position is Obama.

It's possible that this will have unintended consequences. If people start really thinking about the sixties and seventies, they may realize that the hippy baby boomer folks did a lot of damage. And all the media hand-waving about how good those folks were may not be able to hide the reality from the sheeple.

Another history re-write that will probably make it into the books that children are forced to learn.

Too many drugs alters one's perception and memory.

The Media has signed up for the duration of this campaign. They are going to have to be a lot more clever then just forging documents this time. They underestimated the internet in '04. Look for a Stalinist type cleaning up of Hillary's college and years as Bill's wife. They have a big job to do.

That woman slipped, banged her head against a rock a dozen times, then fell in a river. Any other story is just a neo con fable /sarc
