Robert F. Kennedy Jr.: Today's Right Wing Is As Responsible For Rep. Giffords' Shooting As The Right Wing Of 1963 Was For The Shooting of JFK

Actually... I agree!

Every bit as responsible. Or not responsible.

I wouldn't suggest reading that, by the way. Let's just say it's gone Full Loughner, and once again we are brought back to the dark chatter of Dallas '63, which, frankly, I have to admit sounds anti-American and despicable, but which also sounds like it had nothing at all to do with shaping the psyche of Marxist defector-to-Russia Oswald, Harvey Lee.

The conclusion is that you're to blame for Giffords to the same extent Dallas "dark chatterers" were to blame for JFK; like I said, I agree, but probably not in the way this pissant intends.

Serious question: RFK Jr., who the fuck are you? I mean, seriously: At the end of the day, what the fuck have you done apart from successfully making it out of the birth canal? What are your qualifications?

Do you at least have hobbies you're good at? I am willing to accept hobbies you're above-average at. Because seriously man, for as long as I've been alive you've been in the background, offering your opinions, using any excuse to drop the Kennedy Legacy as some kind of all-purpose Letter of Recommendation, and all this time, even when I was a good little liberal and was rooting for you, I've been waiting for you to actually accomplish something apart from serving on charity trusts set up by your grandpa, and you haven't done a single thing yet.

Who are you? What differentiates you at all from Paris Hilton? The only differences I can imagine are actually in Paris Hilton's favor; at least she works a few days a year opening clubs and appearing in bad National Lampoon movies. (Speaking of entities given undue respect due to past glory...)

Do you work? At all? I mean real work. Showing up to talk to the manager of your trust fund doesn't count.

Who are you and why the hell shouldn't I call Paris Hilton to get an opposing opinion on this?

So, this guy, whoever he is, I'm sure he's a decent amateur golfer, postulates that we need some like new national dialogue on "conscience" or something. (Conscience dreaming? Probably.)

You know what we really need? A great national dialogue on Cause and Effect because I think some people don't get it.

Corrected: A reader says there's actually no real evidence that says Joe Kennedy was a bootlegger; he says that's based on one article in the 1950s. I read other conservatives making that charge; I'm surprised it's more of a rumor than a fact.

So I omitted it.

On the other hand, he was anti-semitic and, while not pro Hilter, not really terribly against him, either. That, at least, is true.

You Know Who RFKJr. Is Maybe As Smart As...? Jenny McCarthy.
