I was talking to a friend of mine whose grandfather (A "Pollock) was a bootlegger in Lynn, Mass and a good sized bookie. He claims that his great uncles used to get drunk on the Anniversary in celebration of JFK biting the bullet.
It seems that old Joe eliminated the competition in a rather harsh manner. I know a couple of his cousins, they say the same thing, and the story has the possibility of being true."

Well there you go, ANOTHER theory for JFK's death: He was snuffed by someone who lost a loved one to one of Joe's bootlegger hits many years before!

I read the "Kennedy Women"....don't know if you have read it or not, but it was good reading...learned alot about this clan, Joe was no doubt a 'dirty' man...would sell his own mother if it would help him to walk on someone....the swimmer is just like him...

I liked JFK, I thought he was a good President and I thought Jackie brought a "Lady Like" environment to the Country and White House that hadn't ever been there, one statement Jack made, "It's Jackie and Mr. President"....

We have a Lady in our White House right now that is as gracious as Jackie, if you get a chance to read: "Laura Bush" a very beautiful, intelligent, smart, gracious Lady for sure...

We so needed someone like Laura after the slimy one in there for eight years....

Well, we may have some small victories to cheer: Joe Kennedy III, spawn of Bobby, was forced out of Congress after his ex-wife wrote a devastating book on how he got an "annulment" of their marriage.

Then, Joe's sister Kathleen, ran for governor of Maryland. It was a disaster - she made a fool of herself with her stupidity and ineptness. It was quite hilarious and entertaining.

Also, Bobby Kennedy, Jr., is a laughingstock as he flies all over the country in a private jet, preaching environmenatlism to us great unwashed. His hypocrisy on wind farms in Nantucket Sound is astonishing. He's had many go-rounds with Sean Hannity, and always ends up blubbering incoherntly.

Papa Joe had a huge part in causing the Great Depression by collapsing the banking industry while he made millions.

Joe had her lobotomized on his own, without his wife's knowledge. There are hints in one of the books, perhaps Sins of the Father, that this was convenient if Joe had molested Rosemary. Joe went after young girls, including the girlfriends of his sons. His sons warned their dates to keep their doors locked against Dad. Joe also had his "Bull Pen" where he sunned himself nude in the yard. No one was allowed in. Very weird, sick, sadistic character.

The lying about Rosemary has been of mythical proportions. The Kennedy turned all their disasters into "tragedies." The rest of them would fill several books - they already have. I doubt whether we know a fraction of it.

I read voraciously and have read both of the books you mention.

I have long considered the assassination of JFK to have been one of the great tragedies of the 20th Century, but not because he was a good president. He was not. He was overrated and ineffectual and nearly blundered us into a nuclear war. The tragedy of Kennedy's death is that it visited LBJ upon us. The country has never recovered from that tragedy and, I fear, never will.

Robert was thinking of running for office from NY

Not to be old fashioned, but isn't it a bit cheeky for a [former?] heroin addict to offer himself up for public office?

Jackie was a political whore who stayed with JFK because it gave her an aura of power and respectability while he was out jocking every woman he could. To compare her with Laura Bush is ridiculous.

I thought so, but Patrick did rehab at 19 for cocaine addiction and now says he is a binge drinker -- yet it appears the people or RI don't even have a second choice this November.

Bobby supposedly knew the Mafia was involved and told a friend or two. A Notre Dame professor thought the Mafia was involved. I find the conclusions of the Warren Report and the RFK assasination too clouded.

And - lie down with dawgs, get up with fleas. He sacrificed his family for his own greed and lust. The Kennedy sons were all abused children.

JFK was under the bed when Joe and Gloria began to rut. He ran out and jumped in the water. JFK was an abused child.

Not only LBJ but then came Carter to add upon it, and then came clinton, those are the 3, in my opinion, we will never get over....

Also, I feel that yes JFK was overrated, but he had a charm that no other President had, and hasn't since....I don't think you could call it "Kennedy charm" but there was something there that both men and women could relate to....

The right liked him and the left liked him, the other countrys liked him....not divided like there are today with President Bush....this is dangerous what the left, right and in-between are doing....and with clinton and carter out there with their tongues wagging....what ever happened to "engage brain before opening mouth"......

I really don't think you could call Jackie a whore....have you read anything about the woman...if not, maybe you should....she is not in the same class as Laura Bush, but she did bring something to the culture of the United States as has Laura Bush....

Now if you want to call someone a 'political whore' I think clinton would fit you to a tea there....
