That's why this may be the end for the MSM Monitor today. I simply can no longer abide by Zionist crapola and outright lies day after day after day -- and I don't want them getting my dollar every day, either!!!
"For inauguration zeal, LBJ '65 may be the precedent for Obama" by Sasha Issenberg, Globe Staff | January 2, 2009
WASHINGTON - .... Unlike Kennedy, who had delivered a Cold War call to arms in his 1961 inaugural address, Johnson made hardly any mention of geopolitics. (The Soviet news agency TASS covered his 22-minute address in only 26 words.) Instead, he spoke about renewing the "American covenant" for liberty and justice while embracing "change," arguing for massive domestic reforms and a new era of civil rights, in both legal and moral terms.
And that is what you are going to get from Obama; why would he want to bring up his impending betrayals about ending the wars?
"When any citizen denies his fellow, saying, 'His color is not mine,' or 'His beliefs are strange and different' - in that moment he betrays America," Johnson said, as civil rights figures Ralph Bunche and Marian Anderson looked on from VIP seats. (King spent the day in Selma, Ala. - where two days earlier he had been punched as part of a hotel-lobby melee - working to free dozens of civil-rights activists who had been arrested as part of a voting-rights drive.)
Don't you just LOVE how the WAR-PROMOTING, AGENDA-PUSHING, HISTORY-DISTORTING paper turns Kennedy and King into men of violence? Yup, Kennedy came in a Cold Warrior and King was involved in a "meleee" with "punches."
Meanwhile, the great Texas peacemaker filled Amurkns with feel good shit -- just before he embroiled us in Vietnam!!!!
HELLO, CHANGE, 'eh, Amurka? WWIII on deck!!!!!
As for JFK, how come the WAR-PROMOTING, AGENDA-PUSHING, HISTORY-DISTORTING paper, notice how they forgot his death, just as they forget what he said on a spring day in 1963:
"Commencement Address at American University in Washington, June 10, 1963
.... I have, therefore, chosen this time and this place to discuss a topic on which ignorance too often abounds and the truth is too rarely perceived -- yet it is the most important topic on earth: world peace.
What kind of peace do I mean? What kind of peace do we seek? Not a Pax Americana enforced on the world by American weapons of war. Not the peace of the grave or the security of the slave. I am talking about genuine peace, the kind of peace that makes life on earth worth living, the kind that enables men and nations to grow and to hope and to build a better life for their children -- not merely peace for Americans but peace for all men and women -- not merely peace in our time but peace for all time. I speak of peace because of the new face of war. Total war makes no sense in an age when great powers can maintain large and relatively invulnerable nuclear forces and refuse to surrender without resort to those forces. It makes no sense in an age when a single nuclear weapon contains almost ten times the explosive force delivered by 11 of the Allied air forces in the Second World War. It makes no sense in an age when the deadly poisons produced by a nuclear exchange would be carried by wind and water and soil and seed to the far corners of the globe and to generations yet unborn.
Today the expenditure of billions of dollars every year on weapons acquired for the purpose of making sure we never need to use the is essential to keeping the peace. But surely the acquisition of such idle stockpiles -- which can only destroy and never create -- is not the only, much less the most efficient, means of assuring peace.
I speak of peace, therefore, as the necessary rational end of rational men. I realize that the pursuit of peace is not as dramatic as the pursuit of war -- and frequently the words of the pursuer fall on deaf ears. But we have no more urgent task....
Let us reexamine our attitude toward the Soviet Union.... No government or social system is so evil that its people must be considered as lacking in virtue.... For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal.

That goes for the MUSLIMS we are now SLAUGHTERING, too, AmeriKa!!!!!
Btw, the wish to end the Cold War is one of the things that got him killed, folks, along with the intention to withdraw from Vietnam, shatter the CIA into a thousand pieces, end the Fed, and preventing Israel from developing a nuclear bomb.
