The President and the Press - Part 1

Obama should listen to this speech. The NYT should listen.

History would be the same with or without Marx. The collective has been around since the Spartans of Greece and probably before. If it wasn't communism it would have been another form of human organization called something else but with the same principal that the state and collective are primary and individual human desires are secondary and must be suppressed.

Are you referring to the military industrial complex speech by Ike?

by the 50s, communist (pro-labor) political parties in the US were forced underground by State violence. President candidate Eugene Debs was thrown in prison for sedition.

Then Joe McCarthy, drunken Nazi who defended Nazis who killed Americans.

Did communists become more secretive in 1950s? Damn right! They had to hide from authorities, like Jews in Europe often had to claim to be non-Jews to survive.

JFK is promoting MORE govt secrecy, and asking Media to comply, "voluntarily". Or else!

thank you, someone who actually read the WHOLE speech and had the brains to understand it

He's asking the media to be more secretive about military strikes, this was right after bay of pigs, JFK believed that they knew before the attack and were probably the leak to Cuba considering they definitely knew we were coming.

But how ever to read it he is definitely asking for more SECRECY

Under the eyes of Cardinal 'Smelly' Spellman, fellow closet gay, Edgar Hoover, and Spellman's  friend Joe MacCarthy, this light-hearted treatment of the founder of Communism was remarkably impudent. I can see why Spellman preferred Richard Nixon to Kennedy. And I can see why they wanted him dead...

at what point did he say "Illuminati" or "NWO"

he's not mentioning secret societies except to say that we are a country that dissaproves of them. A lot of people think he's talking about the Illuminati or the NWO, but he's not. He's talking to the press, he's telling them that he won't keep secrets from them, but asking them to please keep certain secrets from our enemies.

This is right after the Bay of Pigs.

And no, by mentioning the Illuminati or NWO am i admitting their existence, just like saying Santa doesn't mean i believe in him

you just don't know how much illuminati owns... he could be talking about the media and it still means illuminati, heck even war!! who pays for our wars?

no just read the whole speech, he only mentions secret societies once and all he says is that we condemn them. He was making a point in saying that this administration will be open with their policies and will not stay secret to the american people

but goes on to tell the media that certain things, such as military strikes, are kept secret so the enemy doesn't find out.

this was right after the bay of pigs.

I promise if you read the whole thing, only a delusional person comes to conclude NWO
