Unsweet Caroline

Hillbillies offended. Heath Ledger defended. Complacency upended. Romney defeats Truman. Plus more.

(Page 4 of 17)

/p> p> I agree that the GOP candidates should let the Clinton/Obama feud play out on its own, but I have no problem with GOP pundits pointing out the hypocrisy on the left here. It is simply too delicious for us conservatives to watch the Clinton's turn their wrath on their own with the same vehemence that it was turned on the right for 8 years, plus a Senate campaign. Why should we not point out to everyone watching and listening that this behavior is not new from Hill Billy, that it is the prevailing modus operandi of the Hill Billy machine, and that the media are total hypocrites to pretend that they never knew the Clinton's played dirty politics. We're not trying to stop the crack-up, just trying to point out the truth to all who are watching. br> -- Eric Edwards br> Walnut Cove, North Carolina /p> p> With Jean Le Kerry at your side, and now that beloved eternal manchild Teddy and most of the rest of the Kennedy Clan at your other side, you really need someone to watch your back. br> -- A. C. Santore /p>

While I was pleasantly surprised at the embarrassment this all brings to the Clinton Camp, I cannot help but wonder HOW and WHY anyone can see a likeness between Jack Kennedy and Barack Obama.

JFK is most famously known for his inauguration speech, which held the following quote: "and so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you, but ask what you can do for your country."

Reading that statement and understanding anything about what JFK stood for, how does Sen. Kennedy and Mrs. Kennedy Schlossberg match these two up in likeness.

p>The answer, friends, is merely on the surface: youth, vigor and likeability, young wife, two beautiful young children; and the likeness ends there. br> --
