Purportedly the Pied Piper events took place in Hamelin on June 26, 1284. The story is that a rat infestation led to a reward for their removal. A piper arrived in town seeking the reward for removing the pests. Denied his reward he retaliated by luring all the town’s children away.
We’ll never know whether the Pied Piper of old entered a desperate Hamelin as a con man or as the go-to guy to lure the rats out of Dodge.
An increasingly irrelevant mainstream media (MSM) and headed-for-midterm Democrats are now blaming Obama for going too far to the left.
