quote: Kennedy Lauds Obama As Worthy Heir To JFK "It was a moment packed with political significance," said CBS senior political correspondent Jeff Greenfield. "Ted and Caroline Kennedy — the surviving brother and surviving child of the most revered Democratic President — declaring that the torch has been passed." http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/01/28/politics/main3758893.shtml

Ah, Camelot - back in the day when a failed Democrat president was *King*, at least in the eyes of all the TV networks and newspapers.

And Bobby Kennedy is backing Hillary. So is Robert Kennedy's daughter, Kathleen Kennedy Townsend as well as Bobby Kennedy`s sister,Kerry. Who the fuck cares? http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22024587/ You remind of the sport heads who jaw on forever about stats,trades,league averages and jock-head minutia. Borrrring....

She isn't on board with Hillary (Obaaa-maaa baa-aaad), she must be destroyed... Huffington Post hacks endorsement Some theorize her recent political conversion may stem from a lifelong search to recapture the dad she never knew Has it occurred to the Clintons that they might pissing off people they will need later?

You missed the point, 059. CBS senior political correspondent Jeff Greenfield is drooling all over Obama, and CBS is drooling on the fact that Obama has been anointed heir to the very Royal Kennedy Throne at which every media outlet in the United States bowed down before in the 1960's... while the Left today has the gall to call Fox News biased. Kennedy, King. Camelot, and all of that. The very guy who played a very major role in getting us into Vietnam. The guy who gave Fidel Castro Cuba on a silver platter... he cut taxes in the face of a recession, he was a 'nucular cowboy' against Russia... everything that the Left claims that they hate today, practically George W. Bush's twin brother idealogically. But yet, HE could be King, and the left and it's media outlets cums in its shorts at the suggestion quote: ORIGINAL: Owner59 And Bobby Kennedy is backing Hillary.

I like Obama. The way he talks about undoing the status quo- well it is dangerous for him. his logic is refreshing - we need a prez as far from the current course as possible.

Sanity -> RE: See-B.S. News: Obama Anointed Heir To The Throne (1/30/2008 6:11:54 AM)
Who put that idea in your head, that "it is dangerous for him"? It's just another way to get you to believe in the Camelot fairytale. And you're buying into it... quote: ORIGINAL: pahunkboy I like Obama.

Look- the way he is talking he is going to get shot in the head! I wanted Dennis Kucinich. The status quo isnt gonna allow any real change. even if it is camelot- that would be great! time is moving on- and so are the neocons. they had their chance- maybe now the liberals can fix it.

It sounds more and more like Osams,."ah,...er,...Obama" is "bought and paid for." The Kennedys are a bunch of Bums. A crime family. They made their money from bootlegging liquor. Sure...Marylyn Monroe died from an "overdose." Right before she was going to spill the beans about her affair with John Kennedy. Bobby couldn't have that now could he? Ah, water under the bridge. Comming from Massachusetts it never ceases to amaze me that people are fucking stupid enough to buy into that "Camelot" B.S. Well, Bill Clinton did. He was all stary eyed when he had his picture taken with JFK. "Heir?" "Throne?" More like "Capo de Regime." What we hear on the News is just the tip of the iceberg. These are some sick fucking people.

Reagan's your cowboy. Incidentally, the old guy across the street lets rooms to American students, so there is an "Obama 2008" sign in a window opposite my house - and I live in London.

I liked Reagan. his wife is a bitch- but i thought he was what we needed at that pont in history.

The Bay of Pigs invasion could not have succeeded without sending in the marines which would have brought in the soviets. Kennedy's mistake was in not simply canceling the whole plan.

I was unaware that Cuba was ours to give to anyone. he cut taxes in the face of a recession, So now you are in favor of raising taxes? he was a 'nucular cowboy' against Russia... The deal he made with Krushchev was that if Russia took its nukes out of Cuba we would take our nukes out of Turkey. How does that make him a "cowboy"? everything that the Left claims that they hate today, practically George W. Bush's twin brother idealogically. Bush never got to fuck anything near as hawt as Marilyn Monroe. But yet, HE could be King, and the left and it's media outlets cums in its shorts at the suggestion Google and a couple of keystrokes could disabuse you of your ignorance as to who owns the media in this country. Can you spell Rupert Murdoch?

Castro won a military victory in 1959, but the Bay of Pigs fiasco gave him deity status. The chronology is still correct. There was no guarantee that the coup attempt would`ve succeeded. You`re premise assumes that it would have. This Cuba thing is ridiculous. We do business w/ China,and other communist nations. Picking on Cuba only makes look like bullies.

Alumbrado -> RE: See-B.S. News: Obama Anointed Heir To The Throne (1/30/2008 11:42:47 PM)
My premise assumes that in reality, the Bay of Pigs (and subsequent 'isolation' of Cuba) was a failure, for which JFK should be blamed, not revered. I have no idea what you believe the outcome was in fantasyland.

DomKen -> RE: See-B.S. News: Obama Anointed Heir To The Throne (1/31/2008 6:53:40 AM)
Because 1500 troops even with a few CIA B-26's could not hope to defeat the entire Cuban army. The CIA knew it that is why they faked the B-25 damage on Captain Zuniga's plane. Furthermore Castro had had plenty of warning about the coming invasion, loose talk by cuban exiles in Miami, and had rounded up over a gundred thousand people suspected of having anti Castro leanings. With those people held under guard there weren't any Cubans to rise up in rebellion which the exiles and the CIA were counting on.

I have no idea what you believe the outcome was in fantasyland. And wtf reveres JFK on this issue? Not sure why you`re whining. The fantasy-land I refer to,is what the super patriots/cold warriors imagine,if JFK had given air support. Even if JFK had done that,it still didn`t mean that that anti-Castro Cubans would have succeeded. That success is only someone`s fantasy. This whole anti-Cuba thing is a bunch of bullshit. Btw,by attempting to assassinate Castro(multiple times),the US drove him right into the hands of the Soviets. A monumental blunder.
