Explosive Jackie O tapes 'reveal how she believed Johnson killed JFK and had affair
Daily Mail UK ^ | August 8, 2011 | Rachel Quigley and Liz Thomas

Jackie Onassis believed that Lyndon B Johnson and a cabal of Texas tycoons were involved in the assassination of her husband John F Kennedy, ‘explosive’ recordings are set to reveal.

The secret tapes will show that the former first lady felt that her husband’s successor was at the heart of the plot to murder him.

She became convinced that the then vice president, along with businessmen in the South, had orchestrated the Dallas shooting, with gunman Lee Harvey Oswald – long claimed to have been a lone assassin – merely part of a much larger conspiracy.

Texas-born Mr Johnson, who served as the state’s governor and senator, completed Mr Kennedy’s term and went on to be elected president in his own right.

The tapes were recorded with leading historian Arthur Schlesinger Jnr within months of the assassination on November 22, 1963, and had been sealed in a vault at the Kennedy Library in Boston.

If JFK were still alive he wouldn’t recognize his party. Say what you will, but he was no commie.

“Lyndon Johnson was white trash”

No doubt there. But high-level involvement in the assassination of JFK wouldn`t have survived all these years without someone blowing the lid open. Even Watergate`s “Deep Throat” came out before he passed on.

Read the book “The Dark Side of Camelot” by Hearse. This was beyond sick and twisted. Jackie O was “paling around “ with Aristotle while Jack Kennedy was alive.

It is all very interesting and has been theorized forever but I’m wondering why Caroline agreed to release these tapes now.

The notion that it was to block a benign mini-series that was released anyway - even if she thought this would come out — would easily be dismissed with an.... I will not dignify this with a comment - comment. But to let these out now, near an election year, when 33 years remained on keeping them private, why?

Probably the Bush's, Cheney, and Haliburton.

My problem is that they trot out this garbage again most likely just to get our attention off of the current Dem outrages, and you and others here accomodate them.

Its useless drivel.

Besides. No one. Absolutely no one has any proof what so ever that LBJ had anything to do with it. You are engaging in malicious slander. I have no brief for LBJ. But that doesn’t make him an assassin, or a baby killer.

In case you haven’t noticed. Situation critical right now. Don’t let the left throw us off with 50 year old conpiracy obssessions.

"Malicious slander" of Johnson? Well, you call the lawyers and have the estate sue me.

Big mouthed noobs with bad attitudes often come to grief here. Just a friendly piece of advice, Lady Bird.

This conspiracy talk often rests on the idea that LBJ as somehow more conservative than JFK.

Actually, it was the other way around with LBJ being a big spending liberal New Dealer whose Great Society with Medicare has helped us to get where we are today.....GOING BANKRUPT.

Crap, today he'd call himself a 'conservative' (not that I'd agree) and run as an East Coast Republican.

No one was killed in Watergate.

Higher stakes make for tighter lips.

Recall, Mob interests in Cuba were lost when someone called off air support for the Bay of Pigs invasion. Millions in nightclub action were lost to the Communists' regime as well as smuggling opportunities.

There were plenty of reasons for people to keep their mouths shut, and an accident here, a suicide there, an unfortunate plane crash, all add up over time. People 'in the know' might even have died of old age.

Jack was no saint, either.

The marriage was likely one 'to the right sort of people' and I'd just about bet it was arranged (Rose's tendrils anyone?), as much for appearances sake as anything.

Maybe there really was something there, maybe not, but my bet is that what things appeared to be was of paramount importance, what happened out of the public eye was a very different reality.

Unfortunately, there were Kennedy worshippers (still are), and now we are faced with the current lot the media and idiots have been fawning over. Crimes will continue to be hidden at the highest levels for the duration unless the MSM gets the sight glass in its collective navel cleaned and really sees what they are doing to our country by not just supporting the current fellow, but shielding him from reasonable and serious inquiry.
