seriously how can people hate JFK RFK EMK Joseph Kennedy, Sr. snap out ppl you weren't alive when they were around..you dont kniw how they lived theyre lives. you never met..you werent theyre friends.
JFK & RFK, were murdered by the same people Bobby assembled to take out Fidel. Once Jack & Bobby came to distrust the cia & the joint chiefs, Jack & Bobby began to pursue silmutaneous secret talks w/Castro while playing along w/the clandestine agencies. When this became clear to cia, fbi, the military, big oil, & other power entities in the country, that JFK wasn't going to give them what they wanted & that Bobby might pursue them for real crimes & misdemeanors, they offed Jack & then Bobby.
how can this be one of the greatest men? his behavior towards his daughter rosemary was totally unacceptable: how could such a famous and well-educated father "pretending being so serious" do that to his own child! for me such a selfish person whose name seems to be more important than his own daughter has not earned to be honored.
One of the greatest men America has produced. His unforgiveable "crime" was that he didn't want to see hundreds of thousands of American boys die over whether the Germans or Russians would have hegemony over Eastern Europe. For that "sin" he has been called every name in the book. For those of us who love America, Joseph Kennedy will always be a great man.
@warrenpaine No you uneducated liberal, his crimes were everything from rigging the stockmarket to rigging the elections in buying votes...Not to mention having ties with the mob...Not to mention his inability to see hitler as a real threat, and also anti-semitic,...The liberal press still plays along to this day....It took the new york times 30 years, until they even admitted jfk was having affairs...You probably buy teddy's story at chappaquiddick too...idiot.
You do realize he led a life of il-moral indulgences and he screw everybody on wall street to get what he wanted.
I admire the man for he is driven, opportunistic, and very bussiness minded.
But I would never be friends with him, because he will screw you over just as he had the nerve to ask Frank Sinatra for a favor to have his son elected president and then later had his son ex-communicate him.
He was a more complicated figure than is let on. Yes, he was very anti-semetic and an amoral businessman. He was not a monstrous father; if he didn't love his children, they wouldn't have become beloved by generations. Did he make his money for his own ego? If so, why did he finance each of his son's campaigns, and use all his influence he could to get them elected? I wish we had more than this little video in French to get more info.
@zippyweinstein I don't think he was anti semitic.People like Joe Kennedy have a tendency to be just as ruthless in their private lives as they are in their business dealings.JFK lived off the income from a blind trust set up by Joe.His salary as a congressman senator &President was donated to charity.
@LimitedNewsCorp If we define anti-semitic as "prejudiced against or hostile to Jews," then he clearly was. He said , among other things, the jews brought the holocaust on themselves. He may have focused more hatred on them because of his business setbacks in Hollywood and the significant influence Jewish studio heads had back then. They were also competition on wall-street. Interestingly, there's no hint of anti-semitism in his children - in fact all the Kennedys were very pro-Israel.
@zippyweinstein Good points Zippy but wasn't the eldest son, Joe Jr. that was killed in WW 2 caught saying some very nasty anti semitic things? I think the other children were indeed quite pro Israel later on as you say.
Thats right, and reading these posts has inspired me...I'm goin up and diggin up his remains, urinating on them, then i am gonna do a lobotomy on his rotting skull, that rat bastard Joe P.
People need to remember that he had his oldest daughter, Rosemary, lobotimized in 1941. She was 23 and becoming an embarrassment to the family. They said she was "retarded", which is the old term for Down's syndrome, but pictures of her show a lovely young woman who doesn't have the physical appearance of a Down's person. The operation was performed in secret, without the knowledge of Rose Kennedy. Rosemary was left little more than a vegetable, and hidden away for the rest of her life.
All true, and its no excuse that in those days they though a lobotomy was a "cure." He didn't do it to cure her; he did it because she was starting to embarrass the family.
oops..I meant: THEIR friends...

i must say i thought everything he said about the jews was right
hitler was only interested in the east and with america getting the bomb he could not have taken america
why do conservatives support the jews after everything they've brought to america??
its a matter of which group of complete bastards rule and theres worse than the kennedys out there
