Distorting the Life of Bobby Kennedy reads true to form.
Where Mr. Matthews (like so many of his timid colleagues within MSM circles) hedged his bets, Mr. DiEugenio sets the record straight on the true essence of Joseph P. & Rose Kennedy's 7th child, Robert Francis Kennedy.
Sadly there were so many What If's surrounding this great man's life, a true public-servant during an age of innocence when public service was an honourable calling.
*What If: The tunnel-visioned warmongers were reeled in by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, before their rabid lust for war and world domination simmered beyond boiling volcanic proportions, where anyone daring to seek a peaceful resolution/direction would easily find themselves in the cross-hairs of these blood-thirsty maniacs. Both wise visionaries, and mature beyond their years--JFK & RFK found themselves out-numbered, and sadly out gunned by the cowards who would rather hate than reason for peace.
*What If: McCarthy was reeled in by his see nothing; hear nothing; and say nothing cult, mesmerized by their blind allegiance to a witch-hunt of epic proportions. Once again, the wiser and more mature Kennedys find themselves subject to hushed whispers, unfairly questioning their loyalty to the country they both loved. Make no mistake, the Kennedys loved America, but sought to make it better. Justice for All was much more than mere words to them.
*What If: The Southern US Senators had the courage to address their own unfair issues in their respective states amid Jim Crow society in their own backyards. As If. Once again, enter JFK & RFK to address issues that should have been addressed when they were having their diapers changed.
*What If: the warmongers promoting war for profit, while ignoring the costly lives of countless young American boys sent half a world away to Vietnam to their deaths would come to their senses. As If. Once again, enter RFK, once again a threat to the status quo. The greedy war profiteers weren't going to just stand by and let another Kennedy seek to resolve mankind's issues with reason.
In spite of all these grave, challenging hurdles, RFK still summoned the courage to do the right thing. A lot of good it got him. Courage like his doesn't grow on trees, Mr. Matthews, at the very least give him his due. It's looooong overdue.
