Yep, you are a quack, a left wing nut quack who only cares for your elite few instead of all of the poor humans of the world. Your problem is, you believe JFK liberalism was left wing extremism; its not. Liberalism is caring about the people but also DOING WHAT IT TAKES to be in a position to do something about caring for the people. More the shame for it. I feel sorry for you in your little bubble on a pedestal.Good, I was hoping you would cool it today. Listening to one sermon from a preacher is enough for one day, and my priest's sermons are more interesting, and accurate than yours.
Accuracy is not your forte.To the contrary, I am far more accurate in my comments than you.
You claim to be a JFK liberal, yet you either loathe, dismiss or deride his parents, his siblings and every one of his hand chosen advisors.What does his drunken brother or profiteering father got to do with it? I agree with those in his administration who touted Arthur Laffer and convinced him to lower top marginal taxes for the benefit of our economy. I believe in taking care of the people, whether a politicians family is worthy or not.
You claim the Democratic Party has moved to the left, even though all the FACTS prove that today's Democratic Party is not only to the right of the New Deal, New Frontier and Great society, it is to the right of the 1956 Republican Party.Absolute bullshit! The leadership of the Democrat Party is far to the left of Kennedy's party and you haven't even produced good rumors to suggest to the contrary. All you have done is preach and commiserate, mostly with cut and paste comments about JFK's platform, with most of which I agree.
You claim to be a liberal, yet you either loathe, dismiss or deride any liberal source, and accept as gospel anything from far right wing sources. Even Townhall.com.Having never read town hall, that would be hard to do. I don't dismiss or deride liberal sources, I dismiss and deride extreme left wing nut sources, which you seem to adore. I am a true liberal, unlike you, who cares for all the people, not just the elite few you worship.
You claim to be a JFK liberal, yet you cite George Reisman, an Ayn Rand disciple that is as FAR from John F. Kennedy as one can get. Rand's social Darwinism is the antithesis of the Kennedy family's dedication to the public good and serving the great republic.I cite George Reisman about economics, not political correctness, and he was exactly that, because his philosophy of economics was fare more likely to give us the prosperity to help the needy than that idiot Galbraith.
Remarks at Amherst College, October 26, 1963 - John F. Kennedy Presidential Library & Museum
There is inherited wealth in this country and also inherited poverty. And unless the graduates of this college and other colleges like it who are given a running start in life--unless they are willing to put back into our society, those talents, the broad sympathy, the understanding, the compassion--unless they are willing to put those qualities back into the service of the Great Republic, then obviously the presuppositions upon which our democracy are based are bound to be fallible.I haven't read that book, but I agree with that quote, which does not denigrate anything I have said.
You claim Ronald Reagan was a JFK Democrat, yet he endorsed Eisenhower in 1952, 1956 and Richard Nixon in 1960. And Reagan was a paid spokesman for the AMA, an organization that actively tries to limit the amount of doctors to protect their ELITE status, using the red scare against Kennedy's most important legacy...Medicare.Endorsing a better Candidate in Eisenhower does not make one less of a JFK Democrat, and recognizing that the Democrat party was the wrong way to go in supporting Nixon does not change his like and respect for JFK.
You claim Ronald Reagan was an FDR Democrat. The very man who dismantled much of the New Deal.ROTHFLMAO! None of the new deal or great society was dismantled. Why lie?
You claim the Democratic Party left Ronald Reagan. A nice rhetorical soundbite. But the FACT is Reagan left the party, not the other way around.The Democrat party moved to the left of Reagan who ultimately became a GOP, because the left wing leaders of the party were moving our country in the wrong direction such that we would lose prosperity needed to take care of all the needs of our poor and disabled.
And that leads us to the same fact about you...the Democratic Party has not moved to the left, YOU have moved to the right.Wrong answer! Again your ignorance is the predominant part of your comment.

Your rhetoric stinks to high heaven because you don't practice what you preach, I DO. You said something about beating my chest in an earlier post, YES, I do, 3 times during the consecration of Christ, every Sunday. You should maybe try to live as Christ would want instead of blowing your horn about left wing fanaticism.If it was not for the comedy act you put on here this thread would be so boring it wouldn't be worth reading.
My signature was written with people like you in mind, all mouth and no action, preach but don't do, think but come up empty, cut and paste and copy with out a real thought in the head.
