Hell Kennedy is about the only democrat who ever gets any kind words from the right.
The right may not have loved him but he was a whole lot better than the psychopaths the democrat party produces today.
What’d ya make of that theory out there he was killed because he really wanted to get out of Viet Nam, (although there is no proof). Read that a couple of times lately, by Alec Baldwin.
Me, I have always and always will think it was Oswald.
Of course it was Oswald. Kennedy wasn’t far enough left for Oswald.
If Oswald were alive today he’d have the top rated show on MSNBC.
any kind words from the right.
The further we move from 1963, the more I like JFK.
Where Reagan was trained in stand-up, Kennedy was a natural. As much as my family was Anti-Kennedy, the guy would make us laugh.
The guy was no Liberal, in today’s sense of the word.
If he ran today, he would get my vote...
Please Dear Lord, do not let Obama become a martyr.
Nobody else cares.
Stuff like this, though, does get his name in the papers, and I guess that makes him happy.
I, for one, am sick and tired of this orgy of Kennedy crap slobbering all over two weeks before the anniversary of his death.
He was a terrible president and was a terrible husband. Enough already . . . he was barely photogenic and screwed anything that didn’t move. The only thing different from him and most of the latest jackasses we’ve been given in the White House in the last 40 years, is that he served in the military.
The left always ignores the fact that Bobby Kennedy happily joined Joe McCarthy in going after communists.
The left of today would probably treat both brothers about as well as they treat Sarah Palin.
There is simply no evidence, absolutely none of any kind, that anyone other than Oswald acting alone, killed JFK. This hard fact has been proven over and over, yet otherwise logical people, many of them regular posters on this site, believe otherwise. This second fact has allowed conspiracy hacks, from Mark Lane to Oliver Stone, to profit from spreading rumors and outright lies.
Not back then, that is about trying to change the political discussion, the way the liberals sometimes do with Reagan.
Reagan labeled him a Marxist and wrote Nixon asking for permission to campaign for him, to save America from JFK.
Oswald was a commie.
And Sirhan Sirhan, who shot RFK, was an Arab terrorist whose motive was RFK’s support for Israel.
But facts are so inconvenient for leftards.
What revisionist nonsense, about such a depraved man.
Reagan of that era, in a personal letter to the vice-president asked to campaign for the republican and register republican, to counter what Reagan labelled a Marxist, in the letter.
REAGAN:
“”No Republican, no matter how liberal, is going to woo a Democratic vote; but a Republican bucking the giveaway trend might re-create some voters who have been staying home.
One last thought - shouldn’t someone tag Mr. Kennedy’s bold new imaginative program with its proper age? Under the tousled boyish haircut is still old Karl Marx - first launched a century ago. There is nothing new in the idea of a Government being Big Brother to us all. Hitler called his ‘State Socialism’ and way before him it was ‘benevolent monarchy.’””
No mention either that JFK was an anti-communist. Democrats today are indistiguishable from communists.
The Piereson book is excellent.
In today's sense of the word he was not.
But he had weak character and and thus led us into trouble during the Cold War.
In general liberals are adolescents. Just look at John Kerry trying to act like an adult in Syria and failing.
They can’t face the fact that a Commie acted alone.
Truman gets some, because at least he dropped the bomb on Japan.
I'm not sure if he could compete. From the few words he spoke on camera
he seemed far more rational than the likes of Chris Matthews or Ed Schultz.
Assassination does great things for a persons reputation.
As far as who had him killed, all I ever heard was LBJ as the culprit.
