Must be the season. Just a month to the anniversary of the granddaddy of conspiracy theories.

After all these years, no one has been able to disprove the Warren Report.

One of our NC Senators participated in the 1978 House Subcommittee on Assassinations investigation. He told me, "It looks to me like Castro got to Kennedy before Kennedy got to Castro." If that is the case, we won't hear the truth until after Castro dies.

Well, unless I'm really screwed up, and you might think so, then Connally being shot after JFK at frame 325 absolutely proves that the Warren Commission is wrong.

IF you know the history of the Castro suspicion, it was Lyndon Johnson saying that statement "Castro got him first" during an interview. Jack Anderson in one of is books talks about that comment and how he won (I believe I remember correctly) a Pulizer Prize (sp?) for that revelation.

IT was a plant by LBJ.

You are in lala land with that.

Military surplus carcanos were junk then and they are junk now.

You can confuse them with african safari rifles if you want, but they are still junk.

You can still buy them for 25 dollars.

"Actaully, there were five shots, three from the TSBD and two from in front of the limo. "

Folks who were there said it was a shooting gallery--war zone.

I remember man in suit standing at parade rest on the trestle in Life Magazine supposedly after the shootings.

The African-American boys yelling at a cameraman from perhaps the School Book Depository, a floor below the cameraman, pointing at the grassy knoll, perhaps.

The lady the Friday before who ran up to JFK's limo, addressing the President with, "Oh, My God, I could have shot you!!?"

Been maybe five years since that interview with Mrs. Connolly, so imagine hidden in some archive at one of the DFW TV stations...

Read the Files thing when you get a chance. Files said he and Roselli both fired almost simultaneously which would account for the two close-together shots.

Seems everybody in DC, Chicago, Dallas, Miami, and New Orleans knew that JFK was going to get hit. Wouldn't surprise me to learn that even JFK knew.

Well, as I said in the opening, it's that time of year. I hope that we collectively can embarras the major networks to actually get this detail right. You'll notice I put a link to one of the later documentaries which said two of the five shots from the Dallas Police recording analysis were misses.

That of course isn't true.

If you look at the history of the Dallas Police Recording, you'll find experts on both sides of the equation, a group that says the noises were NOT shots, and a group that says they were. BUT looking at the FACT that you can see Connally shot just like he described, other witnesses said they HEARD bang-bang, it should be pretty obvious that the Dallas Police Recording actually recorded the shots.

It's not necessary for the Recording to have captured the shooting, but it is pretty convincing to ANY REASONABLE person that 0.7 seconds apart both the Zapruder film and the police recording say the same thing.

On a side note, the recording only has the 5 noises at about the right time, and Dr. Thomas calculated the odds being 100,000 to one against RANDOM NOISE on the tape looking like gunfire.

Just so we have an understanding of the situation--I was nowhere near Dallas that day.

Watch the winshield. It is struck by a bullet.

That sequence is from the DVD with the four digitized sequence on the assassination.

I did not go into the earlier shots as the two shots at the end alone prove conspiracy, you can see Connally shot in the Zapruder film, the Dallas Police recording recorded it, and the witnesses said they heard BANG-BANG.

Since they all say essentially the same thing, a resonable person would conclude there were multiple shooters.

"I think it was Cuban/mafia/Connelly/Johnson. The Cubans because of the Cuban Missile Crisis; The Mafia because of what Bobby Kennedy was doing with the investigations into the Mafia;Connelly, he was in the playpen with Johnson..."

No. Governor Connally led the charge that ousted LBJ's best ideological friend, "progessive" Senator Ralph Yarborough. It was with Connally's help that Lloyd Bentsen was able to run as a Conservative Democrat in order to beat the died-in-the-wool communist Yarborough.

Thus, the Left's 2 greatest **Democratic Party** enemies were in that same car together in Texas that day: Connally and Kennedy.

Within a few more years, 3 other right-wing Democrats were attacked (House and Senate) via "muggings" and plane crashes, and surviving right-wing Democrats "found religion" by shifting Left.

The end result was that the Democratic Party lost all of its right-wing power-players. What remained in the smoky backroom halls of Democratic Party power were leftists.

BTW, some man in Maryland had/has a film of the School Book Depository with JFK's Limo headed for the left turn on Commerce--Elm--whichever it was.

Two men in white shirts and ties were at Oswald's window, moving around, though extremely hard to see.

Mike Snyder, the news anchor on Channel 5 in Dallas/Ft. Worth, was excited as he was going to take the film to an expert to see what all that was on the sixth floor right before the limo turn.

That was almost ten years and we're still waiting....................

The most accurate theory I'v heard is: Ther were three shooters, grassy knoll, manhole in front of limo and book depository.

Here's mine, 50 people did it, they were standing right along the street. They were using cloaking devices from the mother ship. They were pissed because Kennedy wanted to send a man to the moon and return him safely to the earth before the decade was out.

And no, I'm not a rocket surgeon, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night.
