Our Kennedy.

[Spoonman]

Except his lore was all contrived after his death. His administration was a mess. He was in serious trouble for even being re elected.

kennedy was an irish catholic. libs hate Christians. kennedy was a drinker. didn't they always bash bush for being a drinker. kennedy was an unfaithful husband and womanizer.

Check the link, this is just a snippet..."Kennedy on being a liberal"

----------I'm too tired to read and concentrate on it ..


What do our opponents mean when they apply to us the label "Liberal?" If by "Liberal" they mean, as they want people to believe, someone who is soft in his policies abroad, who is against local government, and who is unconcerned with the taxpayer's dollar, then the record of this party and its members demonstrate that we are not that kind of "Liberal."

My Left Wing:: John F. Kennedy: On Being a Liberal

 

[1776]

JFK wouldn't be a Democrap today.

He was pro-military, anti-communist, a Catholic, pro-low taxes, pro-business, etc.

Hmmmm, except for the Catholic angle.....he looks like Romney.

The Democraps would just roll out some black, Hispanic, Asian....woman that is also a lesbian to run against him.

JFK Assassination, The Definitive Guide.

They had this documentary on The History Channel, I guess it was last night but they're replaying it today at 5:00. Then there is one on Lee Harvey Oswald on at 4:00 today. I just watched the JFK one and it consists of all conspiracy theories and the percentage of people who believe any given theory.

It's an excellent summary. The Oswald one is similarly addressed.

 

[Sarah G]

Oh, he would be a great Democrat today were he still alive. He'd be 96, btw.

 

[Sallow]

Nobody calls Reagan "our Kennedy"

Kennedy would get primaried out in today Progressive Dem Party, he's to the right of most modern Presidents

Naw.

Quite the opposite.

And you might have noticed it was Kennedy's brother (Who you folks vilified to no end) that helped Obama get elected and worked with him on health care.

Kennedy started the Peace Corps, was working on a health care plan that would become Medicare, wanted to spend more on education and science..and wanted to go to the moon. That and he wanted to get the civil rights act passed.

None of that is at all conservative.

 

[JohnL.Burke]

I heard Bill has an increase in ratings............A dozen or so decided to watch him...............

Funny you folks never had any outrage when he was booted off the air for using the power of free speech.

That's bullshit of course. The right wingers were defending Maher for having the right to say what he want's to say. This includes Limbaugh and Hannity.

horseshit, shallow. helping people is a conservative belief, medicare was passed with GOP votes, the moon landing was supported by people from both parties and with all political viewpoints. The civil rights act would not have passed without GOP votes and was fillibustered by democrats.

your view of history is totally incorrect. were you taught by a member of the teachers union?

Comparing Kennedy to today's Lib is a joke..............

prior to obama, teddy (the swimmer) kennedy was the most liberal member of the senate. He accomplished nothing in all his years in the senate, but he did allow a girl to die. What a hero!

Liberals need historical revisionism to help them cling to ideas and programs that have long since been proven a failure. This includes making Kennedy a modern day liberal. Some on the left have even tried to make Lincoln and Reagan liberals. It's just sad but it's what they do. Bending truth like a pretzel while dipping it in government subsidized mustered is the liberals only defense against reality.

Nobody calls Reagan "our Kennedy"

Kennedy would get primaries out in today Progressive Dem Party, he's to the right of most modern Presidents

true

unlike this prezbo

Kennedy did take responsibility for his actions

but it doesnt stop there

his peace through strength policy

argued to lower the debt

tax cutter

favored balanced budgets

unlike this admin that

considers a series of blank checks "the budget"

yeah they would have thrown him out on his ear

Compared to Reagan, who tripled the national debt, ended the Democrats 'tax and spend' policy and replaced it with 'borrow and spend'.

It took America 200 years to accumulate a trillion dollars of debt...it took Reagan a mere 5 years.

"The debt explosion has resulted not from big spending by the Democrats, but instead the Republican Party's embrace, about three decades ago, of the insidious doctrine that deficits don't matter if they result from tax cuts."
David Stockman - Director of the Office of Management and Budget for U.S. President Ronald Reagan.

Very typical...right wing dogma will never die...I have proven you wrong at every turn, yet you still parrot the same bullshit.

The whole family was corrupt in one way or anther. Joe Sr. made his money bootlegging. They all had affairs. Joe Sr. even took his mistress, Gloria Swanson, on a cruise along with his wife.

No US Senator has a longer list of accomplishments than Ted Kennedy.

I remember I was 8 when Kennedy was shot. They let us out of school early so I was a happy kid.
