"Kennedy, it is said, would arrest a mobster for spitting on the streets if it would help defeat organized crime," Ashcroft said in a recent speech. "In the war on terror, it is the policy of this Department of Justice to be equally aggressive."

Robert Kennedy went after his family's enemies...and left their mob friends alone.

He also took care of his brother's girlfriends.

Monica should be grateful that she was spared because of Clintons' inepitude.

Oh my yes, we should name the 'justice' department after a gangster.

"Robert Kennedy went after his family's enemies...and left their mob friends alone."

I recall those days. And so did Nixon when he pardonded Jimmy Hoffa.
Fact is back then both political parties consorted with the mob.

If I can take a tangent from your post.........

RFK had a real hard on for Carlos Marcello, New Orleans mafia head. Justice could not get him in court. One day three agents from Justice took Marcello into custody when he came out of a building in NO. They flew him to, I think, Guatamala and released himin the mountains without any money.

Eventually, he got down to a city and worked his way back home.

Bobby boy went after the Kennedy's enemies and friends, namely the mob. After the mob got Johnny the presidency with the help of Daly and all the dead Chicago voters, Bobby reniged on the deal which caused Johnny to get what usually happens to those who cross the mob. Remember, the drag queen LEO Hoover refused to even admit the mob existed untill Bobby went on his anti mafia jihad while attorney general. BTW, no real honor there, just a cheap populist political show. The Kennedys have been in bed with the mob since before Joe even thought of fathering that collection of dirtballs he called his children, and la cosa nostra was offended when they tried to act like they weren't the scumbags they are.
