The establishment Left (along with the establishment Right, of course) never liked the Kennedys. I go into this in depth in Hidden History. William Kunstler had awful things to say about the Kennedy brothers. So did Malcolm X. As Jim DiEugenio pointed out in a recent Black Op Radio appearance, JFK has even been unfairly maligned for his posture on Civil Rights. His Civil Rights speech in June, 1963 was both courageous and electric.
It isn't just Noam Chomsky and Alexander Cockburn who have attempted to distort JFK's Vietnam policies, and ignored the significance of NSAM 263. The Kennedys were, and remain, a threat to the powers that be.
