"Camelot"?

Who doesn't shudder when they hear you say that, and realize that the press back then was so thoroughly biased that it could routinely got away with things like calling a Democrat Presidency "Camelot"

Could you imagine that happening today? NOT!!! LOL

They tried it with Hillbilly Bill Clinton, and it blew up in their faces, and I'm glad.

GO MATT DRUDGE, you the man!!!!

You realize the press was enamored of this young hot sexy couple of child bearing years that actually had little kids and it was not about their politics at all as to why it was called "Camelot"

Also, Kennedy was not completely liberal. He was not a dove for example. In fact a staunch republican history professor I had was very much an admirer of his, but this was an era before rampant partisan hackery

I have a bridge to sell you if you really think that wasn't a biased media

Point out where I said he was a Liberal?

He wasn't a Liberal at all, not by todays' standards.

Not at all. In fact, he'd likely be a Republican today.

But that doesn't mean that the three networks weren't biased, which they were - and they were the about the only source for news that people had.

If I don't answer you immediately it means what again, exactly???

Pfft.

The only "source" I need is julia saying that the networks called a Democrat administration ":Camelot" back in the day

What more does a thinking person need than that

JFK was no freaking knight in shining armor. He was a good president in many ways, but if he were serving today he'd get ripped to shreds, just like everybody else

Fish, barrel, gun.

p.s. For those playing the home game, it is comments like this that almost demand smart-ass comments like "Do you know any thinking people?"

Actually, Camelot referred to the political family of the Kennedys, not to any "Democrat" administration.

So apparently it is time for you to update your sources as the ones you are using are simply proving your ignorance of the topic being discussed.
