I would agree! Gianacana — I can see that happening. I have done a lot of reading on the mafia and it was very powerful going into the early 60’s. IMHO they helped elect JFK and when he unleased his brother on them, they got mad and got even.
Can you imagine how Hillary feels knowing this was snatched away from her...and she has to stand up with this guy. Politics suck. It’s not for rational, God-fearing humans.

WOW! CNN has been sitting on this the whole time. What else have they been sittin on is what I would like to know!
Interesting footnote to all this is the fact that a republished Ayers book is actually dedicated to RFK’s assassin Sirhan Sirhan.
I am still undecided as to how much of a Manchurian candidate B. Hussein is; he might just be an evil thug rabble rouser in his own right, assisted by ghost-writing henchman who have glommed on to his “charisma.”
You are not the only one who feels they are standing by helplessly while our country is being stolen... this morning on Fox they interviewed this young kid who voted in one of the Nikelodeon school elections and said he voted for Obama “because he is going to reduce taxes for 95% of America”... now this kid was all of 8 or 9 years old and has absolutely no idea what taxes are all about.... but that was his reason... can you say brainwashing? Well that is what Obama wants to force on all chldren in this country.. brainwashing.
This cat fight between the Clinton and Obama campaigns has been the media since it started back in Mid Jan., 2008. Here is a link to a Boston Hearld article of Obama’s complaint against the Clinton camp.

Hill/Billy knows what coming down. That’s why they are “keeping their enemies closer.”
That is what I am thinking as well. If you were Obama, would you want Hill and Bill giving you advice? I know I wouldn’t. :)
Possibly. The weak spot is, if it was a Mob contract, it doesn't explain why LBJ twisted the Warren Commission's arms off to return the "LHO acted alone" finding, which was baked into the cake from the start.
We know the Mob had compromised J. Edgar Hoover (or rather, he had compromised himself), but what was in it for LBJ to avoid a finding that led back to the Chicago Mob? Whereas on the other hand, anything that led back to Cuba or the Soviets would have been radioactive and could have induced men like Earl Warren and Gerald Ford (I think he was on the commission, too) to play along.
Turns out there's another explanation for the numbers, huh?
LBJs hands weren’t clean with respect to election fraud in 1960. That alone would have made him want to keep the Warren Commission away from the mob and their motive for whacking JFK.
I think the weak link in the mob contract theory is LHO himself. He was an extremely flaky guy, even for a patsy. How would you approach somebody like that and make him do exactly what you want him to do? One thing the mob was NOT known for was subtlety on the level of the KGB or GRU. The sheer difficulty of getting inside LHO’s head and making him see the thing through is the best argument for the LHO acted alone theory.
The mob hit theory is my favorite from a literary point of view because of the tragic elements combined with the colorful characters. But the best story isn’t necessarily the true story.
My high school French teacher told me the French have a saying, "When a thief steals from a thief, God only laughs."
His associates in New Orleans were beyond colorful and interesting. I know a black Orleanian who once met David Ferry, and who gave me a sense of what Ferry was like in person. He was the most incredibly bizarre little homosexual man, in both his appearance and his speech and deportment. Some corners of New Orleans society are truly, truly ..... bizarre.
So I would agree with you that the flake factor around LHO was somewhere just off the charts, so that he would hardly make a Mob patsy, much less a gunsel entrusted with a superheavyweight hit.
