Obama/Hillary-Benghazi=4 dead.

JFK-Bay of Pigs=1400 killed or captured to spend the rest of their lives in one of Castro's prisons.

Same Shit Different Democrat!

If TWA Flight 800 can be swept under the rug as an onboard fuel issue, I reckon an assassination 50 years ago could be subject to the same shenanigans. I believe Oswald was the sole trigger man, but have no firm convictions regarding whether he was set up, paid, etc., or what other personalities contributed to Kennedy’s demise. The forces of evil in this world tend to be shadowy and in high places. I certainly do not trust the government to be forthcoming. Oswald was motivated by an incendiary video.

Also, on YouTube Nov. 5th TruNews interview with Roger Stone. Very interesting.
BTW, Johnson was not the only one with motive. He had partners.

We will never have definitive proof of whether LBJ was a conspirator in the Kennedy assassination. IMO, I believe he was. I believe that on November 22, 1963, a coup took place in this country.

HSCA surely wasn’t so crooked that they’d give Lyndon and others a pass on this. Blakey does say the CIA did not give HSCA all the information they could have.


I got put down worse just for saying it doesn’t mean “Conspiracy Nuts” when currently, over 60% of the nation believes it was a conspiracy and James Tague who got a cut on the cheek that day from a bit of flying concrete that hit him when the curb was hit by a bullet or ricocheted believes in conspiracy, he has just come out with a book.

There is furthermore, much testimony that shows a lot of the witnesses thought something was happening on the ground in places other than the TSBD.

Mr. 2ndDivisionVet I have read your views on different topics and you certainly have credibility and deserve respect. For many years I was open to and leaning to belief in a conspiracy in the JFK assassination. I remember the Blakey committee, I remember the first time the Zapruder film was aired by Geraldo on his ABC show nearly 40 years ago, I remember the 5 part documentary ‘The Men Who Killed Kennedy’ on Discovery 20+ years ago, and story of the mob lawyer Ragano who claimed Santo Trafficante confessed to the assassination on his deathbed years ago, and countless other theories. I just saw a couple weeks ago on NatGeo a new theory that a Secret Service mistakenly blew the president’s brains out during the frantic commotion after Kennedy was first hit.

I understand and respect your doubts. After all these many years, this is the most examined crime in American history. In spite of all the many theories, The Warren Commission report still fundamentally holds up. Former President Gerald Ford was on that commission and rose to become president himself. Never once in the 45 years he lived after the assassination did Gerald Ford ever waver from his endorsement of that commission’s findings. Nobody else could possibly have been in a position to know and conceal facts that support any different conclusion. He became president himself, and if he knew and covered up facts that he surely would become privy to, then President Ford would also be complicit in the cover-up and conspiracy. Also I checked out the Gerald Posner book on the subject about 20 years ago and his conclusions also hold up very well.

Having said that, skepticism is good and you are worthy of respect, not derision. After all these years I believe strongly that Kennedy was killed by a crazed, young Communist loser. Hard to believe today that a 24 year old punk could pull that off, but things were different then.

Having said that, LBJ was an odious narcissist who would do anything to force his ambitions. It is very reasonable to suspect him. He created the Great Society disaster to buy the love of the Left, and thought he was so smart and powerful and heroic he could win Viet Nam through his own skills of intimidation and abuse of power. He is truly a tragic figure and a failure. Still, in spite of his shortcomings, I believe President Ford and believe Oswald did it all by himself. It would take an awful lot of hard evidence and corroboration to discredit that and after 50 years and an awful lot of investigation and analysis I just don’t see it.

So with JFK, it was called a Coup D’Etat but there’s certainly been those who have written that taking down Nixon was a “Silent Coup”. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silent_Coup

I think Nixon did well in relations with China and Russia. I think Nixon’s main fault was his loyalty to his men and that he had a loose tongue but he had to face the press who didn’t like him. Probably some Democrat Prezes could get away with those things. It was a 3rd rate burglary. Compared to most presidents, he was good but of course, nowhere near Reagan.

About the book by Stone, I can read what it says but I just don’t know if it is potent enough for me to believe.

“By late November, 1963, the Kennedys were within days of politically executing and personally destroying Lyndon Johnson via a two track program: 1) a devastating RFK-fed LIFE Magazine expose of LBJ’s astounding corruption and 2) an RFK-nurtured Senate Rules Committee investigation into LBJ’s habit of taking large bribes and kickbacks.”

This is some of what is in the book, hard to think this in Dallas happened against this background.

“* Roger Stone combines his decades of insider political ken with cutting edge JFK research to let you know what Richard Nixon, Henry Cabot Lodge, Barry Goldwater and the KGB all concluded: Lyndon Johnson orchestrated the assassination of John Kennedy.

* Stone ties LBJ to at least seven politically motivated murders prior to the murder of John F. Kennedy. Stone: “LBJ would order up a murder just as you or I would order a ham sandwich.”

Apparently the above seems to be from a publicity mailout for the book.

This isn't the stupidest theory I've ever about the assassination, but it's close. It's one notch above the theory that Kennedy was killed to cover up the existence of UFOs at Roswell.

Anyone who thinks that Jack Rubenstein could have possibly been a mob hit man or political assassin is not a serious person, and is completely ignorant of the facts.

Keep pimping these silly conspiracy theories though; the left LOVES it. It allows them to ignore the fact that JFK was murderded by a Castro-loving, capitalism-hating commie. If Oswald were alive today, he would feel completely at home at an Occupy Wall Street rally.
