The Beloved leader has a problem keeping Sanford & Son and the Jeffersons straight. So it is better to stay away from them. As I said before, the proper example is The Great Zimbabwe. The most perfect kingdom ever to have existed.
No, it will be the new Zimbabwe.
Blame-A-Lot!
Seriously, I have been posting a lot before the election up until now while I still can. However, very soon before the surveillance starts in earnest, I shall be out of radio contact and in the “silent” resistance for a very long time. I’ll be looking towards the eastern sky, for my redemption draweth nigh.
Kennedy’s exaggerations and misspeaks about our defense system was what CAUSED the Bay of Pigs in the first place (in his debate with Nixon). The Kennedy’s penchant for “risk-taking” almost got us and Russia both mutually annihilated.
That sure leaves a lot of wiggle room.
I can’t stand any more Obamamania.
I was in the army for a three year hitch back in those days.
Eisenhower told Kennedy about the planned Bay of Pigs invasion, Don’t start a war unless you intend to win it.
So Kennedy started a war and then immediately chickened out. Worst thing he could have possibly done. He was tested again and again by the USSR because they judged that he was a weakling.
Even the Cuban missile crisis was resolved by a retreat, when Kennedy agreed to pull our defensive missile shield out of Europe.
I have a friend whose father worked in JFK’s administration and had interesting stories to tell. When it came to women, JFK was a pig who wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Exactly...JFK was a horrible President back then, so I welcome the comparison. If Obama wants to emulate a failed President, let him.
Another example of how progressives/socialists/democrats/liberals (PSDLs) play on public’s emotions. Just because a man is a family man does not mean he is a leader or a good leader, or that he thinks or makes good decisions. But the MSM is hypnotizing us with this idea; and people who don’t think will fall for this.
The reference is more to Monty Python than to Lerner and Lowe.
No,instead it will be Sham-a-lot.
cough cough
The original Camelot was Sodom and Gomorrah with haute couture fashion.
(1) Jackie Kennedy was a truly beautiful, stylish woman
(2) Michelle Obama is a hulking moose who makes her husband look like a wisp of a girly man
(3) As judged by the horrifying dress Michelle chose for Tuesday night, there’s no danger of a second “Camelot”.
(4) An Obama administration is just the corrupt Stroger Cook County Democratmachine moved to Washington D.C.
It's already begun. In today's press conference, Obama was asked what sort of dog he might bring to the White House. He said he might go to the pound and "get a mutt like me". On second thought, he has to worry about his daughter's allergies. The CBS correspondent breathlessly reported the exchange and deemed it so remarkable we'd have to go back to JFK's Camelot to find anything like it. No mention of the snarky tasteless joke about our ailing former First Lady, Nancy Reagan. Obama was asked if he has consulted with any former presidents. He laughed and said he's talked with the living ones, but hasn't had a seance with any dead ones. "I'm thinking about Nancy Reagan here." Er, I think he really meant Hillary Clinton, but never mind. I have not heard this in any of the post-interview reports.
well that aint the one on venoy & michigan... (from a fellow westlander)
My husband was in the Air Force stationed in Turkey on the Russian border in the sixties during the Cold War. That was three years after Kennedy was assassinated.
Kennedy is one of the “sacred cows” of the Democrat Party, along with the bloated, debauched Teddy, as you know. I’m sick and tired of having the “Kennedys” thrown in my face. To me, that whole dynamic is phony and hypocritical. The Catholic Church seems to be stuck with them and their piggishness and unwilling to stand up to them. God is not a respecter of persons I’ve heard. That whole “Rose Kennedy” aspect of it all is very dysfunctional sounding. So, I feel better about my own sorta dysfunctional family.
My Daddy was in the Army Infantry in WWII, the 88th/351st, in N. Africa, Sicily, Italy and Germany. He was in the worst of it and never really got over it, but did “man up”, suck it in and get up and go to work when he got out. Passed on six and a half years ago.
