"Ask not what your country can do for you[...]

I recognize these words. I think these were uttered by JF Kennedy, the man who started the war in Vietnam, sent thousands of American conscripts to die there, all while snorting coke off Marilyn Monroe sweet butt (and while his brother the Attorney General Bobby Kennedy wiretapped Martin Luther King and other civil rights leaders).
No wonder that asshole didn't want us asking what our country could do for us.

[...] but what you can do for your country!"

You actually believe that shit? Talk about "useful idiots"...
