LIBERAL VICTIMHOOD: A GAME YOU CAN PLAY AT HOMEJanuary 28, 2009I notice that liberals have not challenged the overall thesis of my rocketing bestseller, "Guilty: Liberal 'Victims' and Their Assault on America," which is that liberals always play the victim in order to advance, win advantages and oppress others. I guess that would be hard to do when the corrupt Democratic governor of Illinois is running around comparing himself to Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr. and Mahatma Gandhi. Indeed, you can't turn on the TV without seeing some liberal playing victim to score the game-winning point. Caroline Kennedy tried...

Legacy of Secrecy also entails why and how Robert Kennedy tried to bring justice to his brother's killers and died in the process. Legacy of Secrecy shows how Carlos Marcello was involved with Martin Luther King's assassination. Legacy of Secrecy also goes so far as to link Jimmy Hoffa's murder to all of this too.

I know who was behind Bobby Kennedy's murder, by his actor friend Robert Vaughn By ROBERT VAUGHN When Bobby Kennedy's death was announced that day in June 1968, I cried myself to sleep. It was months before I was able to function normally again. I had deeply admired Bobby since I was first introduced to him in 1960. Ironically, we met at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles where, eight years later, he would be assassinated. We ran into each other again at the University of Southern California in 1965, when I was concluding work on my PhD in communications...

EVEN before Barack Obama takes control of the Oval office, he has already initiated substantive changes in American politics, it has been claimed. US political commentator Mark Shields, who has worked on several White House election campaigns, believes that the incoming president will harness the power of his supporters to enact change. “He has created a whole new way of doing things. There are 10 million names on a list committed to Obama and he will use this support,” said Mr Shields, on a visit to Galway this week. Addressing the National University of Ireland, Galway, (NUIG) Law Society, the...

Poe: "They are leftists, dedicated to overthrowing our Constitutional system," and "they will go to any length to conceal their radicalism from the public." Understanding the Alinsky Method of "Community Organizing" Written by Bob Dill Sep 24, 2008 at 12:00 AM Meet the Real Obama and Cult of Alinsky " The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun." (Ecclesiastes 1:9 KJV) It is becoming readily apparent that the "change" being proposed vaguely by Sen. Barack Obama is...

This is just too funny! Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. has been on a vote fraud shtick for at least two years ever since he began writing about how the Republicans "stole" the 2004 election (somehow they didn't bother to "steal" the elections in 2006). This year he is claiming that the Republicans are again trying to steal the election via "voter suppression." What Kennedy means is that when Republicans dare to challenge the vast number of fraudulent registrations submitted by ACORN, that is somehow "voter suppression." So how to explain the very obvious false registrations submitted by ACORN around the...

Aaron Katz, who for more than 50 years relentlessly and publicly sought the exoneration of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the central figures in the nation’s most controversial spying case, died on Sept. 28 in Venice, Fla. He was 92 and lived in North Port, Fla. The death was confirmed by his wife, Cynthia. Mr. Katz was director of the National Committee to Reopen the Rosenberg Case for 42 years, repeatedly leading demonstrations outside the federal courthouse on Foley Square in Manhattan on the anniversary of the couple’s execution in Sing Sing’s electric chair on June 19, 1953. They had been...

By late in the evening of June 4th, 1968 it was clear that Robert Kennedy had defeated Eugene McCarthy in the California Primary to establish his preeminence as the "outsider" Democrat candidate for president. Bobby Kennedy did one-on-one interviews with the big network television reporters and then walked into a ballroom at the Ambassador Hotel in Los Angeles to make a victory speech. Kennedy told his audience "we can end the divisions within the United States" and then spoke of "change" happening if delegates would consider how he had won in California. It was now after 3am in the East...

The Robert Kennedy campaign began in the ashes of Lyndon Johnson's re-election effort. Eugene McCarthy had spoiled LBJ, but if there was a favorite among anti-Johnson forces in the Democrat Party, it was Bobby Kennedy. He was warmly received at the 1964 convention and those who loved his brother always looked to him to bring back the Kennedy Administration. Lyndon Johnson did not bow to pressure to make Robert F. Kennedy his running mate in 1964. Instead, LBJ chose Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey, a man who proudly wore the label "liberal" and who would buckle under to Lyndon Johnson's leadership...

Federal officials were increasingly concerned about the crowds of people coming to Oxford, Mississippi to oppose the admission of James Meredith to the University of Mississippi. Some were members of the Ku Klux Klan and violence was feared. The goal of the Kennedy Administration remained to enforce the court order to admit Meredith with the minimum amount of force. But the crowds were making that a more difficult proposition. Among the opponents arriving in Oxford was Edwin Walker. Walker was the major-general who had commanded troops just five years before in Little Rock when the first nine black students attended...

The headlines by September 27, 1962 were ominous enough with hints of some sort of military action in Mississippi. On Wednesday September 26th the first attempt of the day to enroll James Meredith at the University of Mississippi failed, but Attorney General Robert Kennedy kept trying to cajole Governor Ross Barnett into allowing Meredith in. During the afternoon a convoy carrying Meredith came down from Memphis while negotiations by phone continued between Kennedy and Barnett. The convoy turned back when it became apparent that Merdith would not be allowed to enroll. The audio record of these phone calls is available...

For the second day in a row an attempt was made to enroll James Meredith at the University of Mississippi. After the rebuff in Jackson from Governor Barnett it was decided to make the attempt at the university campus in Oxford. The federal plane flew to Oxford carrying Meredith, John Doar of the Justice Department and Chief U.S. Marshal James McShane. This time they were confronted by the Lieutenant Governor of Mississippi, Paul Johnson. Johnson was flanked by state police and sheriff's deputies. Marshal McShane made an attempt to push past Johnson to the registrar's office saying "I think its...

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals was freed to order enrollment of James Meredith at the University of Mississippi after the Supreme Court's September 10th decision. They ordered enrollment of Meredith by registrar Robert Ellis at 10AM on Tuesday September 25th at the Federal Building in Jackson, Mississippi. A federal plane (Border Patrol) flew Meredith, Justice Department official John Doar and Chief U.S. Marshal James McShane from New Orleans to Jackson. They expected to meet the university registrar Robert Ellis there, but he was at the Woolfolk State Office Building when he was ordered to testify before a legislative committee....

Ethel Kennedy, the widow of Robert F. Kennedy, has again cut the asking price on her McLean, Va., estate, this time to $12.5 million, from $25 million when it went up for sale in 2003. John F. Kennedy and his wife, Jackie, bought the 12-bedroom mansion in 1953 shortly after he joined the U.S. Senate. In 1957 the future president sold the home to his brother, who raised his 11 children there. Set on more than five acres, the 19th-century mansion has 18 rooms, 10½ baths and 12 fireplaces. The property also includes a pool, pool house, tennis court and...

Check out this VIDEO of a crazed Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. ranting away against Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, and Glenn Beck at the Live Earth concert, accusing them of being "Lying Flat Earthers." This accusation comes from a supreme HYPOCRITE whose most notable achievement in life thus far has been being busted for heroin possession during an air flight. Of course, RFK, Jr is happy to stand up for all sorts of extreme environmental measures EXCEPT in his own backyard of Cape Cod where is is vigorously OPPOSED to the construction of wind farms offshore from the Kennedy compound...

On June 5, 1968, a Muslim-Arab immigrant from Palestine, shot and killed Senator Robert Kennedy, who was then running for president. Most of us who watch closely the issue and history of Islamic terrorism against America and the west usually place the Iranian hostage takeover in 1979 as the start of the ‘modern’ era of this terrorism.

Zen master tells curious to embrace a new faithRIDGEWOOD - The two-hour lecture at the Old Paramus Church Education Center began with several minutes of silent meditation.  And for many who attended, participating in meditation was a first step in understanding the basic teachings of Buddhism and Eastern philosophy.  "All attempts at mutual education are important to help us grow," said Robert Kennedy, the noted Jesuit priest and Zen master. "It widens our vision."Kennedy Roshi, as he is known to Buddhists, was the key speaker at Saturday's event, which was attended by more than 100 people of varied faiths. It...

It now looks like the Kennedy family has now joined the ranks of the tinfoil hat loony leftwing brigrade in the form of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.. The former heroin addict has long been on the ecology kick EXCEPT in cases where energy conservation would have put energy saving windmills near his family's back yard at Cape Cod. However, now Bobby Jr. has stepped over the bounds of political sanity to join the DUmmies in his allegation that the 2004 election was stolen as you can see in his Rolling Stone ARTICLE titled, "Was the 2004 Election Stolen?" So...

Fans of U.S. Sen. Edward Kennedy have long argued that he has fought the good fight ... But today, he is defending the indefensible: special interest legislation, tucked into a Coast Guard authorization bill, that would give Gov. Mitt Romney the power to veto the proposed Cape Wind energy project, even though it would be in federal waters. The project... more than five miles offshore of Cape Cod. The equivalent of burning 113 million barrels of oil per year. Proponents of Cape Wind say it is an important source of alternative, renewable energy, and it has the backing of such...
