Seems JFK was quite the guy. The picture, so far, is being called genuine.
Imagine if this had been published in October 1960. Richard Nixon would've been President and the USA would never have escalated in Vietnam as Nixon was not the anti-Communist that Kennedy was. (For those of you who don't know, Kennedy had worked for Senator McCarthy at one time and shared the Senator's views towards Communists).

Perhaps I'm just less of a puritan than people in 1960 were, but a yacht full of naked women! To me, that would be an interesting guy to vote for! "Yes, I inhaled. I inhaled deeply and often!"
All we seem to get are liars, better liars or the kitten eater.

That would probably have lost him the election. I doubt Americans would have accepted that.

True, he would not have been elected President, but he definitely would have made an awesome editor for GQ or Esquire with credentials like that.

Now TMZ admits the deception. Playboy magazine ran the original photo in 1967. For you TMZ nitwits who don't know history, that's after JFK was assassinated.

Sometimes you make quality, sensible contributions to CKA, Bart. Lately, most of your posts are complete nonesense.

Well...getting caught with a TMZ-run fakeroo doesn't really help.
Ouch. http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive/ye ... kpic1.html

Hey, I picked this up after it was bird-dogged to me by the KCRA news. They said it was genuine and given their pro-Kennedy bent I had no reason to doubt them.

I'd still rather vote for a guy who openly admits to the Jamaican Wheelchair dope while on a yacht full of naked women. That's a man worth my vote, if only for the brutal honesty.

Even if it were a true photo, who cares, they guy was hanging out...literaly....with a bunch of nekkid, good looking woman. The only ones who would complain about that are either the woman who were too ugly to make the list for the cruise or the dudes who themselves wouldn't have a hope in hell of getting a boat load of ugly chicks let alone good looking ones. And that is the only "issues" that would have affected the election, he would have lost the ugly chick and ugly dude vote....if this photo were true....

Which is why taking "bend" into factor can get you in crap.
Take the plain facts and the plain facts only. Everyone's got their twists. Trying to get the truth out of all the news stations bend on things can be hard but I think it's something we all just kind of have to do if we want the real scoop.
