After listening to all the arguments for the last 48 years, I’ve concluded that there were many people who wanted JFK dead (including LBJ) and several plots in the works to kill him, but Oswald was just the “quickest on the draw”.

I always marveled at LBJ’s acting ability to be able to feign sorrow while taking the Oath of Office. You just KNOW that on the inside he was doing the Snoopy happy dance.

Lady Bird was oiling up the chainsaw to reduce the (outdoor) advertizing competition to her broadcast businesses.

It’s interesting that the Great Society initiative came just before the ‘67 riots that left a number of ‘rat cities in permanent decline.

I remember reading something or seeing something on TV in which Johnson makes a phone call to Bobby Kennedy, who just lost his brother in a violent shooting, and said, “This is the President” within a day of the shooting. Bobby was taken aback, to say the least. I thought this was probably done deliberately as I read reports that Johnson hated Bobby Kennedy. He may have had a hand in having him killed as well.

It was offered to him as a basic courtesy... they never believed he would give up the Majority Leader position for the mostly powerless VP slot. They expected LBJ would turn it down and their preference of Missouri Senator Stuart Symington would be it.

This isn’t about TX!

If you’ve fired a bolt action rifle at a moving target, you’d understand the likelyhood of a single gunman making 3 hits is remote, even if you expand the shooting timeline to 10 seconds.

I agree with Jackie on this (LBJ killed JFK).

So does former WH spokesman Scott McClullen’s dad Barr who was a prominent Texas attorney:

I wouldn’t believe Earl Warren if he told me the sky was blue.

Proof?

Reams of it.

Google "Lee Harvey Oswald wife beater" and you will come away with ample sources of it. After his death, Oswalds life was gone though like none other. Countless interviews with former neighbors and family shows Oswald to be a bully, a wife beater as well as a loving father. One may disagree as to Oswald being the lone gunman, but there is no disagreement that he used Marina as a punching bag. There is evidence that suggests that Oswald was emotionally unbalanced and acted against JFK at least partly because of this factor. Oswald was diagnosed with ""personality pattern disturbance with schizoid features and passive - aggressive tendencies" at the age of thirteen. The fact that Oswald physically and verbally abused his wife Marina adds to this picture of instability.

There does appear in the research that Oswald may have had "handlers", but no one ever seriously thought Marina was one.

Now I've done enough of the the work for you. If you want to know more about Lee Harvey Oswald, you'll need to get off your butt and get to work.

I was in Army Intelligence FRiend. I know more about the assassination than I ever wanted to. The “plumbers unit” is where you'll find the real shooters. Oswald was a patsy, at best. Ever been to the Texas schoolbook depository? The best special operations sniper of today would have a hard time making those shots with that crapizoid Italian POS.

I wish my blessed mother were still alive. These were her exact thoughts right from the beginning...

“The “plumbers unit” is where you’ll find the real shooters...”.

I’ve always wondered about Nixon’s comments on the Watergate tapes. He mentions something about “...that whole Cuban thing...” And then the tape goes dead for 7 and 1/2 minutes.

Nixon protected the U.S. (and LBJ) when he fought to keep the Pentagon papers secret. I’ve always wondered if the “Cuban thing” was a reference to The Bay of Pigs, the assasination, or something else.

I forget the name of the guy that is believed by many to be one of the bums, and also a “plumber”. Hunt?

E. Howard Hunt. The “bums” were all wearing expensive dress shoes.

Weird trivia department...
TV producer Donald Bellisario (NCIS, JAG, Magnum PI) served in the Marines with Lee Harvey Oswald.

It seems there were a lot of people who wanted to kill Kennedy. There was a tape of a group in Miami too. Retaliation for assassinations of other countries leaders.

I always thought it was probably Castro, and that was why there were so many unanswered questions ie the government didn't want to go head to head with the Russians again.

I do remember however, that a lot of people back then thought that LBJ was behind it.

LBJ was NEVER Governor of Texas.

No, but Texas Governor Coke Stevenson failed to become Senator Coke Stevenson in 1948 because LBJ had a good ground game. So well organized, in fact, that some precincts actually showed up to vote in alphabetic order!

LBJ was lower than pond scum white trash and may well have had a part in the assassination.

Agreed. Not much difference between the President Johnsons.

Jack Ruby:

He was a Mafia Lieutenant, a llow life scumbag whose job was to take care of details like planting the bullet on a stretcher at Parkland Hospital, keep Oswald in line.BEFORE the assassination etc.

When things went very wrong as Oswald was NOT killed in the theatre, he had to kill Oswald to silence him as the Mafia would hold Ruby responsible for the failure.

The Mafia wanted the Kennedys as much as LBJ and Hoover did.
