You sure about that? :-))


The author's little joke. In her 22nd century world, it's a very quiet campus.

I sense your problem Chris. My statement of itself is insufficient to disambiguate cases .... :-)

I believe that the Kennedy boys were doing the whole tap the opponent's phone gag well before Watergate. But then again I believe in lots of things like that [strike]The Democrats Are Beautiful Honest People Show[/strike] The West Wing was a documentary ! Good heavens that program just dripped and oozed in volumes - I had to apply several bottles of Get Smug Off Your Rug to the carpet below the TV set. My dogs still avoid the patch today. Much better to watch Kevin Spacey in the Machiavelli Reborn Show ..... :-)

Cheers, Mike.

Well, that of course is one

Well, that of course is one of the conspiracy theories surrounding the Kennedy's that still hasn't gone away even today. There is no doubt however that at the time of JFK's assassination, the Kennedy Clan virtually ruled America from one end to the other. There were many that did not sit easy with that.

I would suggest that the CIA, NSA and Hoover's FBI has done plenty of that stuff since before WWII. Some Presidents were more aware of it than others, and some chose to use it more than others. You don't get to be arguably the most powerful man in the world without safeguarding your backside.
