Bob Dylan releases 17-minute song about John F. Kennedy assassination
New York Post ^ | March 27, 2020 | Variety

Posted on 03/28/2020 8:07:09 AM PDT by CheshireTheCat

...As the clock struck midnight on the east coast Friday morning, Dylan released a new song, “Murder Most Foul,” that has a 16:57 running time — and it’s an epic free association on the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy...In the song’s view, the killing of JFK, “right there in front of everyone’s eyes,” is the “greatest magic trick” — and one he presumably thinks has some relevance in 2020.

Looks like he’s pushing that ridiculous claim that one of the Secret Service agents shot him from within the car. If that had happened, he’d have been in prison, pronto, no one else in the car would have had any doubt at all who’d fired the shot. The lyrics:

Especially as regards the “inheritor” to JFK, a venal vile crapa@@ of democrazy Tyrant that was Lyndon Baines Johnson-— the demonrat Army colonel’s dream, perpetuating the Vietnam “War”. That was his JOB, as defined by the very Mil-Industrial complex which exiting Ike warned everyone about. plantation.

Family recorded in his memoirs his “greatest regret” of ever having mentored LBJ to his “rise” of disgusting ugliness, hatred and corruption. The “harvard sanctioned” version of which we went through with obamaumao for eight years to set up his PARTY “inheritor”.... Hitlery the GERMAN socialist who is a GLOBALIST socialist. And who is it now? The mahthah’s vineyard communist’s next choice for approved Tyrant democrat? Examine the current Coronavirus Tyrant Governors-— banning firearms, banning association, banning small “non-essential” business. They are the ones who will try to deliver this next obamaumao-nation.

And we’re hearing it again from the Kick the Debt can down the road DEMENTED Senator from MBNA (Delaware credit card fraudsters, his son Hunter worked for them), the kickback king of US tax dollars filtered back from Ukraine by a communist Russian born “ambassador”. This proven idiot and his party think the country will overlook all that, and make his VP “pick” (Harris?, Moochelle?-— whaaaat?) prez, with the old imbeds from obamaumao.... in place to take over. Watch the media birdie!!! Look-—over there! (Media monsters, animali).

The copycat folkie at it again-— rewrote folk songs with his lyrics, and grabbed a ‘lectric’ guitar to freak out his Stalinist promoter.... Pete Seeger (it’s all there, including Pete’s Comintern Communist Card... fully admitted, as well as Stalin directed support of US in WWII, once hitler invaded soviets-— exact dates).

Bingo! Thanks, FRiend. Friends in “the biz” have been saying this for decades. So naturally he gets a Nobel for “literature”. Absolute horse crap! Sort of like the Nobel Peace prize for obamaumao-— who had not done ONE damned thing to merit it.

Science Prize— also... corrupted to globull warming.

The Alfred Nobel ARMS DEALER/Munitions manufacturer/War Profiteer Guilt Foundation Award from.... Sweden, a marginal “neutral to the Nazis” nothing country whose major import is now Islamofascists notably not blue eyed blond haired Scans.

So, is Bob Zimmerman Dylan in the “Q”? His “conversion” to Christ was just one more scheming business decision,in the opinion of major critics. But his song “portfolio” (Lest we forget his Chrysler Advert at SuperBowl greed king)-— it’s stil All his. (See: “Wagon Wheel” pursuit of royalties of a non-descript tiny pastich lyric thread. BMI to the rescue, like the Fed Reserve of copyright).

We’re all “Younger than that Now”.... Bobby and get your silly monumentally boring monotone monologues-—one more irrelevant time. Gonna check the lyrics to ANY reference to LBJ’s

Yeah, “Hurricane” is a great song! Also on Blood On The Tracks was “Idiot Wind”, “Tangled Up In Blue” and a bunch more. I especially like “Idiot Wind” because unfortunately, I can relate to it.

I can think of a few:

Supper’s Ready - Genesis
Close to the Edge - Yes

Joni Mitchell has ALWAYS been a far more accomplished songwriter (and singer) than Dylan...or from whoever he stole.

“Calling JFK a king is just piling it too high.”

But they did call it Camelot
Did they not? Did they not?

Oh yeah-— that, especially. Seeing as how they both “did” her along with the Exner the “pillow talk” mobster whore (and probably Soviet sold info supplier from the Mob). Then Bobby Jr.’s son screwing the babysitter, and his wife suicides over him. Great bunch.

This bull crap song is to revive Biden’s....”hey we’re the shite off the Camelot shoes” campaign... vote for us, my Son the crackhead who screwed his brother’s widow, and knocked up a stripper and a whole lot of other pelvic affiliates”—for President.

While the Bernie bots are the dying relic’s granchildren of the misled committed 60’s crazed commies-— Dylan’s “fans”.

Darkness at the break of noon
Shadows even the silver spoon
The handmade blade, the child’s balloon
Eclipses both the sun and moon
To understand you know too soon
There is no sense in trying.

The “Fidel Castro” of songwriting hacks. Would rather listen to one of Fidel’s “famous” 3 freaking hours long speeches. Who is afraid to stop clapping (like Stalin’s “audience”).

And who can forget Dylan’s paen to the “peace” of the new Zimbabwe-— by Mugabe’ the Soviet stooge. Destroying the breadbasket of Africa... Rhodesia.

Oh yeah— that Bob, he’s a real genius. “The answer my friend-— “ is... “blowing out your a@@”... the answer is flatus of irrelevance.

It was nauseating then as it is now. I’m not going to burn the calories on what level of irony Dylan is playing from in 2020.

Yet again, I point out that Dylan wrote a song about Mozambique.

The Zimbabwe song was by Stevie Wonder.

Imagine there was evidence that it was an inside job (CIA?) or that Johnson orchestrated it?

None alive today to pay the price.

The revelation would only tear the country apart.

Jethro Tull - Thick As A Brick is my favorite longest song. Dark Side Or The Moon is up there too, and you got the others nailed down too.
