Poor Man's Fight
-- Phoebe Kosman
Comment on bit of history that has come to light...
The 'Gift'
"...Marion (Mimi) Fahnestock...went to the White House in 1961 to interview Jackie Kennedy for her high school paper. She never filed the story, but she did begin regularly servicing the president. Starting when she was 19 years old, she was one of JFK's playmates until a few weeks before he was assassinated. This week Ms. Fahnestock was outed. Her response?
"'The gift for me is that this allowed me to tell my two married daughters a
secret that I've been holding for 41 years,' she told the New York Daily News.
She continued: 'It's a gift that my daughters know this is a piece of my
history. They are totally supportive of me.'
"...Adultery isn't something Mimi Fahnestock regrets or is ashamed of. It's a
gift. I hope no one ever gives Fahnestock's daughters the type of gift their
mother gave Jackie Kennedy." -- from an e-letter by Jonathan V. Last of the Weekly Standard,
5/13/2003.
