I think the NY Daily News actually published some excerpts from the book, where JFK seduced the girl.
I started to read them, but even I had to stop a few paragraphs in. It was just too disgusting to me to read about a US president casually seducing a young girl, even one “of age”.
I know it happens, and I know JFK wasn’t the only one. But it was absolutely vile, like reading a parents sex diary. It actually hurt my heart. But I got the gist. JFK was a pig without proper regard for his mighty office.
If I remember correctly, old man Kennedy gave Jackie a million dollars to stay married to Jack while he was in the White House. Was Onassis investigated after JFK was killed?
We obediently put our styrofoam hat on our heads and hopped the bus to the Kennedy reception.
When I told my dad about what we did that day...he sat me down....and explained "brain-washing" to me spiked with a little bit of Marilyn and Joe the rum runner.
I can truly thank my dad for the wisdom he bestowed on me that day.
Google up her picture. It’s more proof that democRATs will hit anything that spreads.
“Jackie was a practicing Catholic and would never divorce.”
Let us not wax poetic about her Catholicism nor her piety, the only talent she ever demonstrated was the ability to chase down rich men.
“Note: That Marilyn Monroe video of her singing Happy Birthday was not shown to us until years later.”
I don’t know where you’re from, but the clip of that was shown on Los Angeles TV almost immediately.
No he is not. Kennedy put the first troops in Vietnam, but he refused to provide air cover as promised for the freedom fighters that we financed to invade Cuba and oust Castro. Probaly could have avoided entirely that whole Cuban missile thing.
It must be a disease of the Raunchy class, because Clinton let troops die as well when he failed to give air cover to the Black Hawk down, an unforgivable display of cowardice in my estimation.
Other than that he is a little short on Asian deaths, I guess leaving out Cambodia.
The good news: not a single member of that family is currently holding public office.
There was scuttlebutt that Jackie and Roswell Gilpatric had an affair.
As a teenager I saw the Marilyn “Happy Birthday
Mr. President” performance on the evening news, with much additional coverage and chatter. Particular note was taken of the dress she had to be sewn into. I don’t recall any public mention for many years of an affair with JFK. Bobby was another matter, and that came out around the time of her death.
I was onboard ship in the Gulf of Tonkin when Kennedy was shot, the Carriers were launching F-16's as fast as they could, months before that happened. You are right tho it did get much worse, as all Kings X type wars do.
Vaughn Meeder
It was known in Los Angeles at the time that JFK and MM had a “thing going on.” They often met at JFK’s brother-in-law’s house in Malibu (that would be Peter Lawford, who was married to JFK’s sister Patricia).
I was onboard ship in the Gulf of Tonkin when Kennedy was shot, the Carriers were launching F-16’s as fast as they could, months before that happened.
Seriously? F-16s from a carrier when JFK was shot?
“I was onboard ship in the Gulf of Tonkin when Kennedy was shot, the Carriers were launching F-16’s as fast as they could, months before that happened.”
You may have been onboard a ship in 1963 but you sure as hell were not launching F-16s, because they were not even produced until the mid 1970s.
I think it was while he was running, but I may be wrong. But I do remember the million dollars.
Jackie Kennedy’s second marriage was to a divorced man whose first wife was still alive. That’s not in keeping with Catholic teaching (based on Mark 10.9-12 and other passages).
“Vaughn Meeder”
That would be Vaughn Meader, and his career died when JFK did.
“Voters DID NOT know the truth about the Kennedys.”
As a voter at that time I resent that!
Anyone that didn’t know head their head up their backside!
Old age slip F-14's and Many Prop planes old WW II Corsairs I think. Hey it has been 50 years. But a darned sure was there.
