Can't we all just forget that it was this freckled, drug-addled invalid [JFK] whorehound who blundered us into Viet Nam? Who "triumphed" over Kruschev, by taking down our missiles in Turkey in exchange for recognizing Cuba as a fully armed Soviet satellite state. Who, now revered as a Civil Rights Hero, fought Negro equality tooth and nail, voting for years alongside the segregationist Southern Democrats.

And it can't forgotten that the American-hating racist John F. Kennedy characterized the great Patriot, Republican Thaddeus Stevens (PA-9th) as "the crippled, fanatical personification of the extremes of the radical Republican movement." That's the kind of unhinged, seething hatred DemonRAT JFK had for a fine Christian man who championed the cause of liberty and freedom.

... John F. Kennedy characterized the great Patriot, Republican Thaddeus Stevens (PA-9th) as "the crippled, fanatical personification of the extremes of the radical Republican movement." That's the kind of unhinged, seething hatred DemonRAT JFK had for a fine Christian man who championed the cause of liberty and freedom.

I guess we're going to part company on the subject of Thad Stevens .... he really did want to hang hundreds of Southerners -- thousands? -- for treason, for having led their States (legally) out of the Union.

But it's finally starting to come to light how many fellows with their fingers in the public pie were partisans of Lincoln's party and how many of them were protected in their defalcation by Lincoln personally. Lincoln's administration was in many ways a crime ring just like Obama's and Slick's.

I don't want to get in between JFK and Thad Stevens since I don't know enough about Camelot or Thad Stevens; so I'll just stand aside.
