Even the peaceful civil rights movement - led by MLK - was somewhat disappointed with the Kennedy's, especially John, I believe, and the Kennedy's lukewarm "support" of the movement, until the latter months of JFK's life. JFK was a political animal first, and through much of his presidency, he put practicality before conviction when it came to civil rights. Actually, there probably was little conviction on his part until the last few months.....The wiretaps, and it's apparent in what Katzenback wrote, continued into the Johnson (democrat) administration, apparently with the support of at least some in the administration.......Katzenbach writes in the last paragraph of how there has been blood shed to protect freedom. How true. There will likely be much more blood shed if the wacky left succeeds in hamstringing Bush of his legal means to do what he can to monitor people wanting to kill us.
Simply amazing...
