Well Karl Rove must be proud. ABC News began their broadcast tonight by saying that Clinton and Obama voted against funding the troops. Thanks so much for taking a complicated situation and framing it with a phrase right off of the Republican talking points list.

This new book about John and Robert Kennedy says this on the inside jacket cover:

"Brothers begins on the shattering afternoon of November 22, 1963, as a grief-stricken Robert Kennedy urgently demands answers about the assassination of his brother. Bobby's suspicions immediately focus on the nest of CIA spies, gangsters, and Cuban exiles that had long been plotting violent regime change in Cuba. The Kennedys had struggled to control this swamp of anti-Castro intrigue based in southern Florida, but with little success."

I have been saying this since I met with Vincent Salandria (who is mentioned in the acknowledgments in Brothers and on p. 267 of the text) in the spring of 1971.
