" Miss Squeaky Fromme"

Interesting: we still remember her name, even though the assassination attempt was over forty years ago.

Meanwhile, 14 months ago, someone shot at Trump, and I doubt anyone reading this can name the guy without looking it up.

" 19- not really surprising, considering she has a much more peculiar name"

OK. Without looking it up, who tried to assassinate Trump?

I love it when other posters inadvertently prove my point.

" Unless you recently watched the movie (everyone should) I bet you don't know who shot and killed President Garfield."

Unfair.

You were alive when it happened!

" How often has Routh's name appeared in popular culture"

What a riot.

You had to look up the name.

" Yes, and so what? "

What a riot.

Read my damned post. I said people don't know it without looking it up.

You're Exhibit A, admitting you didn't know it without looking it up.

Thanks for inadvertently proving my point correct.

Double thanks for looking so stupid while doing it.

"I don't know what you think that proves"

My point.

It proves my point.

" What point does your point make?"

Well, the original point was that for the first time in our lives, we haven't had any attending physician follow-up after a presidential assassination attempt.

But now, though, the point is you're an idiot for making me explain the obvious.

" You really are a sore loser

Not when I win, like I did here.

You, OTOH, are rounding first in your home-run trot while the catcher is holding strike three.

"What exactly do you think you "won", bucko?"

I said other assassins saw wall-to-wall coverage, yet nobody could name the guy from 14 months ago without looking it up.

Then you posted a blurb about him, and I noted you had to look up the name first.

If you don't see that as proving my point, you're dumber than I thought.

"LOL. You're a terrible liar."

You're a terrible fool.

Name any other assassination attempt where we never had any statements from the attending physicians.
