What the government is still hiding about the JFK assassination

The National Archives, for the first time ever, released a list of documents related to the assassination that are still shielded from public view.

More than five decades after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, thousands of government files detailing the activities and testimony of shadowy spies, long-deceased witnesses and others with possible knowledge of the events remain shielded from public view.

The government gave a first-ever peek at what's still out there Thursday, as the National Archives released a list of the 3,063 documents that have been "fully withheld" since JFK's murder in Dallas on Nov. 22, 1963.

The documents listed - released in response to a Freedom of Information Act request from POLITICO, other news organizations and researchers - were collected by the Assassination Records Review Board, an independent panel created by the 1992 JFK Records Act.

Who knows? People get others to do batsh!t crazy things all the time. And I’m sure it was done through intermediaries.

One thing for sure: LBJ absolutely hated Kennedy and had the most to gain from his assassination.

Also, the whole thing went down in Texas....LBJ’s home state.

EO 11110

One explanation

The EO

There’s no way to know what would have transpired. He was murdered 5 months later.

Actually, according to a very entertaining book, The Bookmaker, one guy caused all of the various Kennedy deaths, starting with Joe, Jr. in war-time 1944 to John John in 1999, due to a lifelong vendetta against Joe, Sr.

Very fun book as the author ties together all these historical facts, so well that it almost could be true.

Oh, BS

Then WHO is that in the pictures? I personally don't know, but the subject certainly is a "dead ringer" for Bush Sr. and I can see why many think he was involved, particularly since he so vehemently disputes even being present there. Shakespeare said it best" "methinks he doth protest too much". Bush's "official" biography may have him working with the CIA in the 70's, but many reports say he was working with them as early as '61.

"Who knows? People get others to do batsh!t crazy things all the time. And I’m sure it was done through intermediaries."

But there's no evidence of that. Empty speculation is just that. It doesn't take into account that this is the most investigated case in the world and we know practically everyone Oswald talked to and everything he did. There are simply no ties to LBJ.

"One thing for sure: LBJ absolutely hated Kennedy and had the most to gain from his assassination."

Many people had things to gain and many had things to lose. Again, that's not evidence that any of them did anything.

People talk about this as if it were some kind of guessing game. It's not. We know what happened. It's been investigated to death.

Nothing in that EO even begins to suggest abolishing the Fed, despite the silly ranting on some conspiracy site.

And as I've pointed out elsewhere, proposing various motives of random people and organizations has nothing to do with actually figuring out who commits a crime. That is something done with evidence. The evidence proves that Oswald did it, and he had no ties to the Fed, or LBJ, or most of the other usual suspects that get offered up.

The magic bullet explanation Specter gave is utter BS.

I saw the Zapruder film in 1978. It changed my perspective.

People around my neighborhood growing up did not talk about the assassination. They stayed completely mum.

Oswald was a patsy. No way did he make it on the front covers sans being a cover story in international newspapers before the blood stopped flowing.

“I doubt we will never, ever know exactly what happened that day.”

Ever and never are opposites. So which do you intend?

"The magic bullet explanation Specter gave is utter BS."

Why? What is so wrong with the idea that a military rifle bullet hitting only soft tissue will pass through a person to hit whatever is in its path? Explain why that's so objectionable.

The bullet recovered on the guerney was pristine.
