romad1 Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 45 minutes ago, romad1 said: Joe Sr deserves to be in the same bin as other isolationist fellow travelers of the nazis. Joe Jr. died honorably in a high risk mission (of course he got a tv movie made about him for it). JFK wrote the book "while England Slept" while he was in London with his Dad...an indicator that he was not a fan of what was happening in Europe. He serves honorably and becomes a staunch opponent of Communism while in office. I've always noted that the worst offenders in the Kennedy clan appear to have embarrassed children about those offenses. This is amusing from the wikipedia article about "While England Slept" Quote Joseph Kennedy had initially approached Harold Laski to write the book's foreword, but Laski declined since he felt that it was "the book of an immature mind; that if it hadn't been written by the son of a very rich man, he wouldn't have found a publisher."[6] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the criticism of the book is that it was the work of a lesser author, that doesn't really hold up unless Joe Sr. was really bad at picking ghost writers. I think JFK probably had a ton of help with it. The fact that it puts out a muscular atlantic interventionist vision of foreign policy that is radically different from his fenian anglophobic and isolationist dad means that Dad didn't direct what was in it. Unless the long con was a bigger deal to Joe Sr than any actual content. Edited July 15, 2023 by romad1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motor City Sonics Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Bobby Kennedy would be horrified at his son right now. Now his thing is COVID was invented to protect the Asians and Jews. I don't know, Bob, but maybe Asians and Jews actually ****ing believe in science when it started happening they were more prepared and actually listened to doctors instead of coming up with idiotic garbage. Who are your medical advisers, Bob - Jenny McCarthey and Gwenyth Paltrow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smr-nj Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 Trump went into full and non-apologetic Hitler mode last night. There are no more dog whistles. It’s out there, plain as the nose on your face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

digitalpigsmuggler Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Biden, With Sluggish Small Donations, Waits for Liberal Energy to Rise Quote the party’s small donors have yet to step up their contributions. The Biden campaign and the Biden Victory Fund, its joint fund-raising vehicle, collected $10.2 million from small donors — defined as those who gave $200 or less — during the three-month fund-raising period that ended June 30, according to a Federal Election Commission report filed Saturday. That figure is about half of the $21 million President Barack Obama’s campaign raised during the same period of his 2012 re-election effort. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/16/us/politics/biden-fundraising-2024.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
