The repeal of prohibition legitimized the Kennedy fortune. You love it.

I don't love it, but as a practical conservative I'd rather have seen that fortune "legitimized" than continue to grow.

Fat Ted and the Kennedy Trust collect a royalty on every botle of scotch sold in this country. Last thing Old Joe arranged as Ambassador to the Court of St. James before being cashiered for betting on the NAZIs.

All too often liberals trot out a statement with “as a conservative...”

It is their phony ‘good-guy’ badge they hope will impress everyone.

I didn't see the Ku Klux Kennedy fortune diminish either, so that is a red herring as far as how the repeal of Prohibition legitimized the Kennedy fortune.

The Kennedy fortune didn't stop growing. In fact, it's now into environmentalism scams.
