Thanks for reminding me of the timing of these two events:

If you will remember, the CIA first caught President Carter's brother Billy recieving a $250,000 payment from Khadafy in Libya, however, as soon as that scandal broke - Jimmy's friends in Iran invaded our Tehran embassy and knocked Billy's scandal story completely out of the news.

I like most Americans had forgot about Billy's $250,000 payment from Krazy Khadaffy. The takeover of our embassy smothered that story.

This reply of your is just more proof of how the Opecker Islamofacists have been buying out the rat politicians and their mediot friends for decades.
