What’s that line in the Good Book about not visiting the sins of the father onto the son???????

If Jack wasn’t into wife swapping and just screwed around like a democrat he would be the senator from Illinois and Obama would still be voting “present” in Springfield !

Anti-abortion (we can assume by being a ardent Roman Catholic)That's quite an assumption considering JFKs penchant for cheating on his wife.
To: kerrywoodssecretwife
I read somewhere that JFK’s overactive libido may have been a side-effect of medication he was on for his Addison’s Disease.

He was getting injections of amphetamines on a regular basis...come to think of it, Obama’s cocaine “issue” may be the tip of the iceberg!

Anti-abortion (we can assume by being a ardent Roman Catholic)John F. Kennedy was an ardent Roman Catholic? Not according to Mrs. John F. Kennedy: "I think it’s so unjust of people to be against Jack because he’s a Catholic. He’s such a poor Catholic. Now if it was Bobby, I could understand it."
And as long as we're assuming, we might as well assume that an "ardent Roman Catholic" wouldn't practice serial adultery.

Ok...I like tax cuts.
I’ve always felt that he didn’t have enough time to actually complete anything. It has seemed to me that he is a “saint” because he died early.

Keeping Russian missiles out of Cuba comes to mind, as well.Don't forget the Quid Pro Quo, taking Jupiter IRBMs out of Turkey and Italy in order to get Nikita to take his missiles out of Cuba.

Even John Kennedy was no John Kennedy of his time.

Unfortunately that is flawed logic....look at brother Ted, Nancy Pelosi, John Kerry etc...all Catholics - at least in name- and all ardent of the right to kill the fetus right up until delivery! Ted Kennedy was anti-abortion until after Roe v. Wade, prior to that he opposed it. I agree with 2banana, I would vote for JFK or any other Democrat with his views long before I would vote for McCain.
Let's not forget that JFK was the original taxcutter and I think it's a mistake to judge a politician based on their sibling's later positions (look how two of Reagan's kids turned out).

Unlike Kennedy, he isn’t (to my knowledge) porking (to be politically incorrect)everything in sight.
