See, if this were any of the Bewshes, there'd be a 20-page foldout. Assholes.

7. Sen. Kennedy's death didn't lead even one front page of the four Newseum papers
in my home state. Kinda telling about their cultural ignorance, isn't it?

12. It's kind of telling how threatened corporations and the right wing were by all of them.
John F Kennedy bowed to no corporate or military intimidation and their smear tactics didn't work. He genuinely wanted to help people and institute a culture of peace. Which, of course, the Hard Right, the military brass and corporations would never allow. We all know what happened next, and that "message sent, mark and LEARN" pretty much stifled anyone ELSE that wanted to do anything remotely progressive in this nation.

So naturally, they're probably breathing a sigh of relief knowing the "right" family (i.e. the ones that gave the corporations, the MIC and the far-right-wing, the keys to OUR kingdom and tax dollars) ruled longer than the Kennedys had a chance to. Only problem is, we're ALL living with their manure-heap "legacy".

14. O'Brien must have had a hissy fit and the editors placated him. Seems as though
this paper has no class and can not give one Democrat props.

15. EVER. And O'Brien is a fascist douchenozzle TOOL.
God, reading his columns is like an exercise in self-flagellation. Every bizarre wrong-wing talking point you can imagine, from "Red Scare" crap to "Death Panels" to "Global Warming is a Hoax", he craps out of his piehole without even a hint of satire.

Supposedly this buck-toothed, hairdo-straight-outta-the-Wall-Street-80s loonster is being groomed to be the head of the editorial board one day. When that comes, you can forget about this paper EVER endorsing Democratic candidates for anything.

16. Question for the freepturds....
Will the world pay the same respect for anyone in the Bush Family, when they suck their final second of life from this nation?
