I couldn't think of anywhere else to post this, and it just wasn't worthy of a new thread. Anyway, I would have forgotten, but the posts about MJ's philandering reminded me. Anywho...
I watched the E! True Hollywood Story on the Kennedys yesterday. And there was SO much I did not know. I'm becoming fascinated with this family. The whole show (of which was only the FIRST part, and WHO KNOWS when the 2nd part will air, they
kill me with that isht
) reminded me of the Bushes. Anyway, did you know...
-that JFK has a sister who his father had LOBOTOMIZED and ended up paralyzed, so she (to this day) is in a convent being cared for by nurses? The mother (Rose Kennedy) had no idea her daughter was being lobotomized. That's just jacked up.
-that all of the JFK men (father and 3 sons) were womanizers? I knew JFK got his adultery on, but I had NO IDEA it was all like that. All I could think was, everyone KNEW this man was cheating on Jackie, with NUMEROUS women, but Bill got a little oral and almost got impeached. WTF?
-JFK was a war hero? I had no idea.
-JFK was supposedly assassinated by the Mafia?
-the Mafia supposedly helped JFK win the election (Bushes...)?
-JFK messed around with one of the mafia bosses mistress (Judy Campbell)?
-Joe Kennedy, Sr. framed this man for rape, the man got convicted, all so Joe could buy his movie production company? This buster was just foul.
-Joe Kennedy, Sr. supported Hitler?
-JFK's roommate in Hollywood was Robert Stack, the host of Unsolved Mysteries? Now, really, can yall see him hangin out with JFK?? I can't, lol.
Man, it was just so much interesting stuff on there that I just didn't know about. How could we NOT have learned that JFK was a war hero??? I think that's important to know. Not just served in WW2, but a hero? Dang, they coulda told a sista.
BTW, I didn't take notes on any of this! And I haven't started the Ginkgo Biloba, either!!! Go Ideal08!!!!!
