RFK Jr "Fox News has Divided the Country"

[Brohan]

Would anyones family do well under the scrutiny of the public microscope?

Uhh, yes. The Kennedy's wealth and connections kept a lot of their dirty laundry hidden from the public.

The GOP could learn a lot about divisiveness and hate from the Kennedy's and their Country Club/Yacht Club cronies.

Sure there is a ton of economic and social diversity at Juniors' Country Club/Yacht Club and the prep schools their clan attend.

[Sprightly]

As well as the Kennedy Krieger Schools. That one hits close to home.

What do the Kennedy Krieger organizations have to do with the Kennedy family?

[sushilover]

Didn't Lincoln have a secretary named Kennedy?

Oh wait, I think Kennedy's secretary drove a Lincoln, or something like that ....

[Jeebus]

What do the Kennedy Krieger organizations have to do with the Kennedy family?

Absolutely nothing, other than it being renamed in honor of a slain president.

[musicmd]

Well said.

Sure it was.

[musicmd]

What do the Kennedy Krieger organizations have to do with the Kennedy family?

You beat me to it.

[musicmd]

I do believe there are families that behave well under public scrutiny.

Well, enlighten us. Why keep it a secret?

[musicmd]

How about that Dan Rather?

Could you please explain.

[Brohan]

And would there even be Special Olympics without Eunice ?

No there wouldn't. And if it were up to people like Daddy Joe and Mommy Rose Kennedy we would be giving disabled people lobotomies.

How would you know?

[musicmd]

As well as the Kennedy Krieger Schools. That one hits close to home.

What is the connection?

[Jeebus]

How would you know?

1. Rosemary Kennedy was born mentally retarded.
2. Pappa Joe was afraid she would "embarrass" the Kennedy clan.
3. Pappa Joe had her lobotomized and institutionalized for the rest of her life.

This is common knowledge for most people, I wonder how you miss so much?

City schools education perhaps?

In the same sense, one could say one knows where Jr. "is coming from".


In stating what one believes, one is giving one's opinion. I don't know when an opinion would be viewed as "objective"

Good point.

[octoburn]

Caroline and John, Jr. -- the decent Kennedy Clan members. Thanks to their mother. Too bad that John, Jr. didn't live long enough to make a difference. Eunice actually accomplished something worthy of praise.

I would not exclude those two or their mother either. Junior's recklessness cost him his life and the life of his wife and sister~in~law. And Caroline's sense of entitlement to rule was demonstrated when she wanted to be appointed to Senator Clinton's seat until she later decided to drop it due to "personal reasons.

[octoburn]

Obviously his role in the media exists only because of his name. So it is fair to reject him for the same reason.

I agree.

[Mom49of4]

What do the Kennedy Krieger organizations have to do with the Kennedy family?

Upon further review I was wrong because I thought it was started by the Kennedy family.

I have it confused with the Kennedy Institute in Washington, D.C.

[demopublican]

I agree.

We have been agreeing too much!

In retrospect I would change "only" to primarily.

He is obviously a well educated and intelligent person and has good public speaking/media skills.

I just do not agree with his perspective very often.

Fox gets grief because the falsely label themselves as fair and balanced. In reality, they are the right wing equivalent of PMSNBC, CBS, ABC, NPR etc... In the same way, these left wing outlets try to divide this country all the time. Even more disturbing, they create a rift among the races.

I agree that Fox should drop the "Fair and Balanced" BS.
I don't watch any of the news channels often but fox news has a clear agenda in every way.

[Grindelwald]

There's that right wing bubble again. You guys sure make a habit of confusing "open-minded" with "liberal". Only MSNBC has a noticable left wing bias.
