If we're ever going to know the real truth, someone needs to interview George H.W. Bush while he is still breathing:

[wheresmyusa]

This is all crazy. Everyone knows the Comedian was the second shooter.



It's been common knowledge for years.

[Red Badger]

Well, he IS FROM TEXAS......................

[dangus]

>> GHWB is still alive. <<

Isn’t Ted Cruz’s father? Hee hee hee.

[longfellow]

Probably gay crossdressers too.

[longfellow]

That’s why he never went after the mob. They had photos of him sucking off tolsen his lover.

If the elder Bush were involved in an assassination conspiracy, why would Trump be motivated to protect him? The Bush family has been as hostile to him as Obama and the Clintons. Perhaps more so, given the younger Bush's recent virtue signaling speech, the probability that the Bush family initiated the Russian collusion story that the Clintons picked up, and the sexual bragging story released by Billy Bush, GHWB’s nephew.

“the public must be satisfied that Oswald was the assassin; that he did not have confederates who are still at large; and that evidence was such that he would have been convicted at trial.”

Both Hoover’s and Katzenbach’s memos are similarly worded and pretty surprising since they came so soon after the assassination, within 2 days. They just read funny...and reek of politcal calculation, not a request to know the truth.

Just weird and they fueled this speculation that has gone on for over 50yrs.

I was in 7th grade...got the news in math class around 2-ish I guess...and I did see Oswald get shot ...

Very sad times that weekend...

[Seruzawa]

The only thing I’m sure of is that the magic bullet is impossible.

To avoid pissing off the GOPe and get his tax cuts passed. I suspect that may be why he gave them 180 days.

I wouldn't go so far as to say Bush was INVOLVED in the assassination or even involved in any conspiracy. But as the CIA director in the 70's, he certainly knows a great deal more than what we've been told. Or will ever be told.

[Big Red Badger]

/s!!!!!

[CommerceComet]

GHWB is still alive.

At least his hand is. ;-)

[Sans-Culotte]

Despite the sensationally deceptive headline, the above quote, deep in the article, IMO, demonstrates that Hoover believed Oswald acted alone and would have been convinced as such in a court of law.

Yep. If only they'd kept Oswald protected the whole conspiracy industry would never have started. It's all based on Ruby's killing of Oswald. Obviously Hoover knew Oswald's death would give birth to a flood of conspiracy rumors.

The scientific evidence proves that Oswald shot Kennedy from the 6th floor window of the TSBD. Case closed. 1st bullet hit the traffic signal arm and then hit a curb with pieces of the curb and/or bullet injuring a bystander in the cheek, second hit Kennedy in the upper back/neck area and then hit Connelly and the third bullet was the fatal head shot. Easy case.

The tragedy in all this is that crooked LBJ became President upon Kennedy’s death. Because LBJ was President, how many American heroes were killed in Vietnam because of LBJ’s asinine ROE and his micromanaging the Vietnam War? Then there’s the incompetence of John McNamara that caused how many lives? Not only are there over 58,000 names on The Wall, how many thousands more died because they served in Vietnam and how many are currently dying every day because they went to Vietnam?

How many did Obama get killed because of his asinine restrictive ROE?

[SandRat]

I was in 7th grade when JFK was Killed, even then, and have ever since, thought LBJ, had JFK erased.
