The JFK obsession: 40 years and still going strong

I should look on the bright side. More TV time devoted to John Kennedy means less time spent on Scott Peterson.

The day Kennedy was inaugurated, there were a few hundred American soldiers in a far off place called Vietnam. By the time he died, there were almost 20,000, with more on orders to go there.
Didn't Kennedy want to stop the Vietnam engagement ?

Media's still going on about that dead boot-leggers kid huh...oh well.

[mlo]

Didn't Kennedy want to stop the Vietnam engagement ?

Sure. After winning.

All this JFK saturation on the tube has led me to come to a personal observation about his wife that I never hear comment on: she appears to have been a vapid armpiece.

All of this would be in the pre-assassination accounts. I wasn't alive then, so was that a prevalent thought among people, or is it just me?

And as for post-assassination Jackie: remarkably ostentatious gold-digger. I hear people say "Onassis was the only man who could protect her children, with his wealth etc." That's nonsense. It appears the myth-making machine created a saint from whole cloth.

Can anyone imagine if a modern Republican had such a bimbo for a wife. Would the ridicule ever cease?

----Maybe when we’re all finally gone the obsession will diminish.----

As a Gen-X'er who's never been able to hear the word "Camelot" without projectile-puking, I sure as hell hope so.

Simple answer for the obsession - single bullet theory is untenable. Leads directly to second shooter possiblity. Therefore conspiracy.

I was alive then and my thoughts were not the same as yours. I would have said "colorless antimacassar" rather than "vapid armpiece."

History Channel this week..."The Men Who Killed Kennedy---The Final Chapter"

We have been paying for that "Oswald Acted Alone" lie for 40 years.

It has distorted our "Politics", allowed the Free Traitors to steal us blind while we carry out the Left-Right Kubuki Dance it set in motion.

As I say: "He's Dead! Deal With it! Move on! I don't need to know how old he's be today if only... that's just flagellation. He's not and never was a friggin' deity. He's Dead."

Now, back to our program...

[SoCal Pubbie]

Sorry, chum, but Oswald did act alone. The single bullet theory is not untenable, as something as simple as the oblong scar in Connelly's back shows the bullet was tumbling after hitting JFK. This is of course NEVER mentioned by the conspiracy freaks, who can't sell as many books telling the truth. There's a whole host of FACTS that get conveniently overlooked but again there's not much profit in a series of Case Closed books.

[MAWG]

Nellie Connally has been telling the world this week that she and hubby were convinced that John Connally was hit in the back by a different bullet than the one that hit J.F.K. Bye Bye single bullet theory, hello second shooter, buy a clue Arlen.

[MAWG]

The wound in JFKs back did not exit his neck. The wound in his throat was small and described by the emergency room nurse and doctor as an entry wound. Nellie describes seeing JFK react to the throat wound BEFORE her husband was hit in the back. Those are facts.

[Mr. Bird]

I saw something this weekend that stated that Mrs. Connolly had the governor's clothes dry-cleaned right after the shooting, washing away evidence. Was she actually that stupid?

[texasbluebell]

History Channel this week..."The Men Who Killed Kennedy---The Final Chapter"

Have just watched last night, for the first time. Highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in the damage these lies have done to our country for 40 years.

The program runs 6 more times this week on History Channel, including twice tonight.

Who was responsible for JFK's death? Case closed for me.

LBJ reportedly once said, won't people be surprised when they find out some day what really happened and who did this...Now I know what he meant by that cryptic comment.
