The new book of Nixon tapes is interesting. Both Richard N and Henry K are rude -- neither has the capacity to let others finish a sentence. (I keep thinking how different that is than, say, a meeting at the Longhouse. I find the White House interruptions to be obnoxious; more, how can they possibly reach the best possible answers that way? Strange.)

Per these gentlemen on DU:GD -- a tree is known by its fruit. A few DUers have contacted me, both with DU e-mail, and otherwise, to comment about how bitter and obnoxious two in particular are. My cousin was able to provide me with some information on one of the two. I assume he is actually a democrat; it's just that he's at the very edge of the party's right-wing. And apparently an unhappy fellow, who is frustrated that he amounts to little in life. Hence, his splattering of bitter, meaningless posts.

Not sure. I do know RFK, Jr. and his sister said what their good father told them. Octafish Jul 2014 #36

Not sure? Interesting. Kennedys are about as large of a dynasty as you will ever see. NCTraveler Jul 2014 #44

Oh, I'm sure I prefer the Kennedy over the Bush philosophy. Octafish Jul 2014 #47

No. Brave is standing up to the powerful and speaking truth. Octafish Jul 2014 #64

Name-calling by a powerful man is not brave. It's childish. REP Jul 2014 #75
