No, I'm saying Kennedy ok'ed the mission.
(I'm sure the CIA director told him "It's a slam dunk"...)
I guess you have a problem distinguishing between the terms

"... On March 17, 1960, the Dwight D. Eisenhower Administration agreed
to a recommendation from the CIA to equip and drill Cuban exiles for
action against the new government of Fidel Castro. Eisenhower stated it
was the policy of the U.S. government to aid anti-Castro guerilla
forces. The CIA began to recruit and train anti-Castro forces in the
Sierra Madre on the Pacific coast of Guatemala. ..."

Are you suggesting that JFK, with less than 90 days in office, was so
brilliant that he could set up and carry out this the planning,
training, and execution? *

Huh? Was CNN pulling their strings? Putting stupid words in their
mouths? Is there *anything* you don't blame the Clintons for?

It was so ridiculous to argue who is stronger (more like who is less
weak) against illegal immigration. Only Ron Paul would argue from a
