Pakistan And America

Bobby Kennedy himself would have scorned this feeling of alienation, Adam Walinsky [close Kennedy aide] contends today--this growing dread that America was lost. "He would have had no tolerance or patience for such a sentiment. His reaction would have been, "What do you mean we've lost America? It's a great country--are you telling me the whole heritage of Washington and Lincoln and everything that Americans and their ancestors have done is all going down the drain because I'm not around? What the f*** is the matter with you? Grow up, get to work, cut that out!"
