"Um, "Liberals have gotten to you," was said with tongue in cheek, so there was no need to get so offended."

The only thing that ticks me off more than the Liberals themselves is the accusation of being a sympathizer, or lacky to the ideology of Liberalism.

You are wrong in stating that JFK didn't accomplish anything. I previously mentioned the only two things that he did accomplish. Jimmy Carter, William Jefferson Clinton were the two Presidents that didn't accomplish anything.

Sorry, I am not trying to tick you off, but you sure sound like a lacky to the ideology of Liberalism. JFK is their patron saint, and one of their favorite hobbies is inventing history that grows his legend. For what it's worth, I never "stated that JFK didn't accomplish anything," but ya know what? He didn't. You mentioned the two things he accomplished. One of them was, in fact, liberal fantasy. The space race was alive and well when Kennedy came on the scene. It reached its pinnacle after he departed.

The tax cut was a novel policy from a Presidential Democrat, but it was not his idea. He admitted that he had no interest in economics. And how hard do you think he had to fight with the Republicans in Congress to get a tax cut passed?

Like Clinton, the man was charasmatic. Unlike Clinton, Kennedy did not have enough time to bring complete disgrace to the office of Commander-in-Chief (though he was well on his way). When he died, he had served three years, had one foreign policy failure, one (charitable) draw and one incomplete. And, because the Liberals got to me too, I can't bring myself to say anything worse about the guy than he doesn't belong in the top twenty. I'll leave it at that, because, at the end of the day, Presidential rankings are irrelevant. I'm just repulsed by the nonsense that people are willing to buy into when it comes to that immoral bunch from Hyannisport.
