The last paragraph is the killer. Everyone focuses on the swimmer’s sexual escapades but his getting in bed with the KGB was the real threat. The KGB must of had a whole bunch of stuff on the Kennedy family going back to Daddy.
Wasn't the Pope at that time also working to pull down the 'iron curtain', or was that after Teddy signed to help the KGB?
You are correct! Margaret, Ron, John Paul and Lech on one side Teddy and his crew on the other.
Thank you so much for the excellent wrap-up!
Excellent observations and conclusions!
This comment was especially eye-catching..
So lurid was his personal life, it could've qualified for NEA funding.
Here's a little ditty from a piece by Ellis Washington entitled, "Ted Kennedy: 'A coward beside heroes'," which adds much to this scumbags legacy...
Such desecration of hallowed ground. A weed beside the rose. Assured, not he with them would die, Yet, worthy, thought he, with them to lie, A coward beside heroes.
Excellent and very accurate!
I can make no comments about the subject. They would get me booted.
The writing is excellent.
YOU’RE TOO KIND, jOHN ... BROKEN SHIFT KEY, PALLY ............FREGARDS
Excellent JH2!
But if the MSM doesn't publish it, does anyone hear it? Daddy Joe is the one that lobotomized daughter Rosemary Kennedy because she was slightly mentally retarded. It was Eunice that founded the Special Olympics because of it. I'm just astounded at the left that would chastise Sarah Palin for loving and keeping a Down Syndrome child when a Kennedy promoted acceptance of these children.
The KGB must of had a whole bunch of stuff on the Kennedy family going back to Daddy.
^^^^
No doubt.
You’re $.02 cents is worth more than you can ever believe.
“But Kennedy’s private outreach to the KGB Soviet intelligence agency in attempts to undermine first President Jimmy Carter then President Ronald Reagan say as much as Chappaquiddick did about the man who appeared to have no moral restraints whatsoever on his personal pursuit of raw political power.”
Awesome reading...thank you.
“As HUMAN EVENTS first reported on December 8, 2003:
One of the documents, a KGB report to bosses in the Soviet Communist Party Central Committee, revealed that “In 1978, American Sen. Edward Kennedy requested the assistance of the KGB to establish a relationship” between the Soviet apparatus and a firm owned by former Sen. John Tunney (D-Ca.). KGB recommended that they be permitted to do this because Tunney’s firm was already connected with a KGB agent in France named David Karr. This document was found by the knowledgeable Russian journalist Yevgenia Albats and published in Moscow’s Izvestia in June 1992.
Another KGB report to their bosses revealed that on March 5, 1980, John Tunney met with the KGB in Moscow on behalf of Sen. Kennedy. Tunney expressed Kennedy’s opinion that “nonsense about ‘the Soviet military threat’ and Soviet ambitions for military expansion in the Persian Gulf… was being fueled by [President Jimmy] Carter, [National Security Advisor Zbigniew] Brzezinski, the Pentagon and the military industrial complex.”
Kennedy offered to speak out against President Carter on Afghanistan. Shortly thereafter he made public speeches opposing President Carter on this issue. This document was found in KGB archives by Vasiliy Mitrokhin, a courageous KGB officer, who copied documents from the files and then defected to the West. He wrote about this document in a February 2002 paper on Afghanistan that he released through the Cold War International History Project of the Woodrow Wilson Center.
