It's a movie, Gil. It also is not all that historically accurate as it greatly enhanced Kenny O'Donnell's
(Kevin Costner) role in the crisis management. O'Donnell was a friend and former teammate of
Bobby's on the Harvard football team. His job in the White House was JFK's appointment
secretary. Not exactly a trusted adviser. I read the book Thirteen Days written (or ghost written)
by Bobby. O'Donnell is barely mentioned. The stage play, The Missiles of October was a far more
accurate portrayal of the Cuban Missile Crisis. As I remember, Kenny O'Donnell appeared in one
brief scene. Robert McNamara refused to even watch the movie because he knew it falsely
portrayed O'Donnell as being a central figure during the crisis. This makes two movies starring
Kevin Costner that falsely portrayed historical events involving JFK.
It's no secret LeMay was a hardline hawk. Are you implying that means he would resort to
engaging in a bloody coup d'etat? If that wasn't your intent, what was your reason for posting
this movie clip.
There were many hardliners within Kennedy's administration, men he appointed and trusted. He
even called in retired career diplomat Dean Atcheson who was as hardline as they come. John McCone and McGeorge Bundy were also hardliners. JFK himself was a hardline anti-Communist
early in his career and only softened to enhance his presidential ambitions. JFK was willing to
bring the world to the brink of nuclear war in order to remove the missiles from Cuba. He may
not have pleased the hawks by seeking out a middle ground to resolve the crisis without going
to war, but that doesn't mean he was seen as soft.

You hang out in this newsgroup all day long waiting for someone to post so you can stick your worthless two cents in.
You HAVE to post. You HAVE to attack. You can't help it.
It's in your DNA.
This is your only form of socialization.
And because you and your LN pals think you are better than everybody else ( i.e. those kooky conspiracy theorists )
that gives you nutters carte blanche to act like assholes to everybody.
Not giving one thought how your pitiful lives are wasted here being "entertained" by insulting people you don't even know. Pitiful and wasted lives that will one day end without having accomplished anything.
I feel sorry for you people. You're a sad bunch indeed.

I've walked away from this forum for many months and could do so again.

Do you really think you are accomplishing anything by reinvestigating a crime that was solved
in the first 12 hours.
I feel sorry for you people. You're a sad bunch indeed.
