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 with Marilyn Monroe.

will history repeat itself again....
 
Weird - even more weird is the person who sat and worked all this out!!
 
will history repeat itself again
Already has.

Tony Blair is a useless, lying ******.

So was John Major. :eek: :thinking:

Both names contain 9 letters. Each first name is 4 letters, each second name is 5 letters.

Both names end in 'r'. Second letter of each first name is 'o'.

Bored now.... :razz: :D
 
well I'd never trust an administration run by george BUSH, DICK cheney, and COLO(i)N powell.

Tenuous I know but it made me smile ;)
 
The whole Marilyn Monroe thing was a bluff to keep J. Edgar Hoover happy - he loved watching secret movies of famous types 'on the job' - he had surveillance on Martin Luther King and kept films of him and white hookers for his own entertainment.
The JFK/MM thing was cooked up by spooks trying to get additional funding for other surveillance projects.
Hoover hated the Kennedys and would believe almost anything about them that served his purpose. Bobby was trying to curb his powers and have him indicted for various illegal ops.
