Journalist’s tell-all on mobster tied to JFK might have gotten her killed

Oswald was a Marine, trained to shoot by the Marines....’Nuff said.

She might have been glamorous, but she was not pretty. She is remembered as being sharp and intelligent. Still watch What’s My Line on occasion (the old shows) and found most of the time she asks the more important questions.

LBJ definitely did; it was him or the Kennedys, and he hired the Mafia to do the job. Look at the Zapruder film. The lethal shot hit JFK from in front. Oswald fired from behind.

Joe Bonanno said the mafia killed him.

If you still have doubts read “Best Evidence” by David S Lifton.

The Stone movie was explained by Stone himself as a conglomerate of every conspiracy theory concerning JFK and the assassination. What’s funny is that college students polled outside of the movie after viewing it had a very high percentage of believing it as gospel truth. Stone was rather amused at the poll numbers and admitted that is how gullible people can be. His own movie was basically in some respects an experiment to see just how stupid the viewing audiences could actually be.

Oswald had been set up and it began months before the assassination. Kennedy had a lengthy list of enemies, itching to pull the trigger. Four days before Dallas. An agent of the Miami SS office told author Vincent Palamara that the threats they received against Kennedy's life in Miami were "above normal". After the trip, JFK remarked to an aide, "Thank God nobody wanted to kill me today." Another agent said, "We knew there were people who wanted him dead ...and those of us regularly assigned to the White House detail had a pretty good idea that somebody had been stalking him for a long time. I think Kennedy also knew some kind of attempt might be coming..." All of which makes the Secret Service's incompetence protecting the President in Dallas all the more striking. Although they were aware the President was being stalked (from Chicago to Miami to Dallas) they allowed him to ride in an open limousine through congested city streets, without any agents on the bumper, into the slow dog-leg turn into Dealey Plaza and, with the exception of one agent acting too late, did little when they heard shots fired. Not one of them was punished for drinking into the wee hours the night before the assassination; few showed any remorse for failing so abysmally to do their job. Some were even promoted afterwards. Everyone should draw their own conclusions.

Please note, I did not dis you. My comment was that I remember that weekend well. I have read very nearly everything written about this event, clearly one of the most investagated/studied events in the history of mankind. I was eight years old when Kennedy was killed. My conclusion, the Warren commission was a ruse to pacify the American people. I have to believe the premise in the book “Plausible Denial” as the most likely.

good read

I think Kennedy overruled the SS in Dallas by ordering the top down on the car against their wishes. Not sure you can blame them for his death.

She failed the What's My Line? immunity challenge.

What happened to her?

I'm guessing it was Bennet Cerf in the Green Room with an icepick that did her in.

And thus the liberals had proven their point that Americans across the country truly were country bumpkins, believing everything heard on broadcast media....from ‘Health Care Scams’ to ‘Assassinations’ Some even believed they could keep their doctor, even though he has long been out of practice.

Stone is no more an historian than Burns of PBS fame.

[I cannot think of a name]

All correct except there is a little more to the theater story.

Dallas had a reputation for there NEVER having been a cop killer arrested. They ALWAYS resisted arrest.

When Oswald was cornered in the theater, a Dallas detective threw him to the ground and fell on top of him. The other police officers were screaming for him to get out of the way but he wouldn’t. Later in the police station, a captain came by his desk and said, ‘why is there a (censored) cop killer in my station breathing air?” When the detective wrote about these events years later he said, “at that moment I knew my career with the Dallas PD was over.” And it was. Oswald was NOT supposed to leave the theater alive. Not because he had killed Kennedy, but because he had killed a Dallas cop.

It starts when you’re 5 years old and you see the globe for the first time. After that they can lie to you about anything, and you’ll believe it.

Look at the moon lander. It’s cardboard and tinfoil.

[Beautiful_Gracious_Skies]

True, somewhat. It was all just very convenient given so many threats directly prior to his assassination. Perhaps JFK had become nonchalant regarding the risk he faced.

Here’s the SS PR report from JFK’s trip to Miami- November 18, 1963. Also it was not filed until over a month after JFK’s death.

A lot of people say a lot of things. Where’s the evidence other than a semi-convoluted physics lesson in the effect of force on JFK’s head? What about recovering the bullet? Not one eyewitness in a huge crowd of people. I don’t buy it.
