“She’s running for office, isn’t she?”

Propaganda passed off as history. I remember this stunt from the movie PT 109. A high ranking naval officer friend of the family set me straight on the historical accuracy of that story.

Re. PT-109:

That old bastard and Nazi-lover Joe Kennedy changed what was to have been a court martial and punishment of JFK for stupidly losing his boat, to a medal and commendation for JFK instead for "saving his crew" after he let his DIW boat be rammed.

Local news just ran an bit explaining how when multi-multi-millionaire Rose Kennedy finally died she was allowed to claim Florida as her home of record to escape Massachusetts' confiscatory inheritance taxes. What a loathsome family.
