Buillsh$T or Not: JFK's dark affair with 19-year-old intern

I'm in my 30s and this happened more than 15 years before I was born. At this point, who really gives a flying fork except nostalgic baby boomers who either revere that clan of moral-less blue bloods, or right winger baby boomers who reflexively hate any Democratic president and feel they were appointed to the position through fraud and puppet strings controlled by Karl Marx. No wonder this country is so forked. All you forking old people are still bitching about shirt from 50 years ago that doesn't mean shirt to anyone except the scoundrels who profit off your inability to do anything but look backwards.
Jeez ... did you have the Patriots and the over yesterday?
And all the "forking old people" who came before you more or less built the kind of country where you can spout off profanely and in vulgar language like this in public without any consequences.

Wrong again. The man who laid the ground work for that was Lenny Bruce, who would be 81 today.Not even close to a boomer.
 
Lesse', Kennedy's family, a family which acquired its money through bootlegging, used the Mob to get election favors, then turned on the Mob after getting into office. He then used his friendship to Frank Sinatra to meet and land Marilyn Monroe. Who had a brother who was an drinking and driving woman-killer. But yet, somehow this story just seems fishy to people. Yeah sure.
 
Sigh...a woman died in an accident. No one was murdered. Anyhoo, the notion of JFK as a saint has long ago been debunked. Heck, this story, if true, indicates he was more gentle and considerate lover than I would have thought. And I don't really give a shirt how many guys or gals a person in power bangs, as long as it's consensual and as long as he or she can still do the job well. Most of the world snicker at our notion that people in power should pass some sexual-purity test.
 
From reading this thread, it appears JFK was the first guy to give booze to a chick to loosen her up. Thumbs up to JFK!

That was his main contribution to society.

Not as important as Clinton, who was part of the team that invented head.
 
At least Democrats do it in the White House, not in an airport bathroom stall.[/hilarrycraig]

I'm calling bullshirt on this ... I'll be curious to see see if she provides any documentation of her claims.

A review by the New York Post summarizes some of the explosive details of the book, including Kennedy taking the intern’s virginity, pimping her out to “first friend” David Powers while he watched, forcing her to take drugs, helping to put her in touch with a then-illegal abortion doctor during a false-alarm pregnancy scare, flying her to Washington from her all-girls school while his wife was away and, in a dark moment of weakness during the Cuban Missile Crisis, admitting that he would rather see his children “red than dead.”

So, the whole Powers thing.....does that mean there was a second shooter on the bushy mound?
