For those of us who lived during the Cuban missile crisis, we knew John Kennedy and Obama is no John Kennedy
That’s not encouraging for those of us who know that Kennedy completely mismanaged that crisis and caved in the end to Soviet demands. If Obama can’t even achieve that low bar we are indeed in deep trouble.
Well he was listening to Secretary of Defense McNamara and the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Obama will have Biden, Carville and Michelle.
Yep, I'd just gotten back off sea duty and was at Coronado Island when it went on lock-down during that crisis and instead of being safely aboard ship somewhere "out there", I was stuck on a major base, a perfect target!
And us Southerners could see JFK building his little dynasty, but lots of folks have conveniently forgotten that over the years. Oh what tangled webs we weave...
