If John F. Kennedy were alive today, would he...

...be more conservative than George W. Bush? Or better yet, Dick Cheney?

I heard somewhere, maybe from a guest on Charlie Rose, that Kennedy would indeed be more conservative than who we have in office. It's a serious question. Would JFK be more conservative?

Scratching at the inside of his coffin...

Much more conservative.

He spoke out against government entitlements and the elements of the new deal.

The easiest way to rile the lefties on JFK is to point out his adoration of McCarthy.

The southern racists were/are Democrats, think Robert Byrd. Watch how poorly Obama does in the southern Dem primaries.

Not that both sides don't have their scum but the Dixicrats ruled the south.

sorry but there were NO southern members of the GOP [or damm few]
Dixicrats became the new souths GOP in mass do to their hate for LBJ
the few racist who remained in the demo's party like Bird reformed and gave up the hate
the modern southern GOP willnot admitt their roots
it is racist pure and simple
and a party that would make abe lincon puke

eazy to see you were not in the south in the 60's
I was and know all the code words
jim crow laws were all based on states rights to be racist
and in fact the states rights people were all racist

funny how now the reform of stupid drug laws
is not supported by the states rights crowd
but as the drug laws all have racist roots
eazy to see why there is no support from true believers in states rights

Who can't form a lucid sentence. I'm not even sure who the racists are.

What???? State rights people in the south in the '60s were racist, therefore all state's rights people are racist today?

Stupid racist drug laws huh? Greatful Dead avatar? Now that lack of a cohesive thought process is starting to make sense.
