In reply to the discussion: Vance tells Pope: "Stick to matters of morality." [View all]Kid Berwyn
(24,701 posts)37. I'm so old, I gave the heads-up to Obama in January '09.
Before he had had a cup of coffee with the professor and the bigot sergeant...
The next two years are going to be like a scene in the "The Good Shepherd."
Matt Damon's CIA character pays a visit to Joe Pesci, the Mafia link to the Castro Assassination program.
Pesci, as Joseph Palmi, asks...

"We Italians, we've got our families and the Church. What do your people have, Mr. Wilson?"
Matt Damon, as Edward Wilson, a composite character with elements of James Jesus Angleton to Frank Terpil:
"We've got the United States of America. The rest of you are just visiting."
That pretty much sums up what America really means to old money:
"You're only here as long as we want. We own the place. And the big guns."
Heads up, Obama!

I can still remember local newspapers over coffee in the morning, too. And the real press.
