DEL.ICIO.USTonight’s homework lesson: JFK’s speech on his Catholicism
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
To prepare you for tomorrow’s speech by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney, we’ve found a terrific web site offered by the Miller Center for Public Affairs at the University of Virginia.
Go here, and you’re only one more click away from the audio of John F. Kennedy’s 1960 speech in Houston on his Catholic faith.
It’ll give you the shivers.

Romney is no Jack Kennedy … although he did used to be a liberal from Massachussetts.

Thanks, Jim Galloway, for making it easy to listen to JFK’s talk. It did indeed give me shivers. I hope Governor Romney can be as equally articulate tomorrow night.

I’m young. No shivers here. JFK is just another dead guy to me. And I see the Kennedys as being treated like Notre Dame. They used to be good, but now aren’t. However, they continue to get by based on their past exploits.
Also, I’m not a huge liberal like you guys and this paper.

Religion is like underwear: you assume the next guy has it but you don’t need to know the details. A glance at the headlines tell you that one’s professed religious beliefs are no indication of his or her morality, and even so a competent immoral leader would be preferable to an incompetent moral one. I have no religious beliefs and personally think tricking yourself into unverifiable “beliefs” is a bit childish, but I would vote for a pratitioner of any religion (yes, including Islam) if I felt he or she truly honored separation of church and state.

John Kennedy was a man, and a great president. He died trying to save the 58,000 (NSAM263) who his assassins, Bush, Nixon and the Roman Catholic CIA, sent to die for Roman Catholic interests in Vietnam; and to keep the patently unconstitutional Federal Reserve scam off our money supply (Exec. Order 11,110). Rome’s Fifth Column killed him because he meant what he said in the speech in Houston in 1960.
Thanks for the link, Political Insider.
Compare his character, and power to the puny fakers trying to con us now: Draft-dodgers Romney, Giuliani, Thompson, Mobbed-up adulterer McCain, Fraud Hillary.
The only issue that counts is bringing to justice the faction which killed John Kennedy, Dr. King and Pat Tillman, and committed 9/11. Obama is the only one who has even alluded to their Big Lie.
Death for Treason, NOW!!

Like a moth to a flame… Did you PI guys deliberately post a topic about Catholicism in hopes of drawing Will Jones out of his belfry?
