I met Danny at Jim Fetzer's first Minnesota JFK conference. We later got together in Manhattan to talk business and break bread. On those occasions I found him to be a most honorable, talented, and righteously committed man.
My opinion has not changed.
Like Jan, I welcome and even encourage honest, informed critical analyses of the Kennedy brothers' public lives, regardless of the conclusions they may present. See JFK and the Unspeakable for insight into the sometimes harsh criticism leveled against President Kennedy by Thomas Merton.
Beyond all that they accomplished in their political careers, I venerate John, Robert, and Edward Kennedy for their respective spiritual maturations.
James Douglass, I believe, shares this point of view.
