Donaldson on This Week on JFK Assassination: I'd Like to Ask Castro 'Did You Do It?'

[UnalienablyRight]

ABC's Sam Donaldson let a little of his inner-conspiracy theorist out this morning on This Week with George Stephanopoulos.

In a discussion of President Barack Obama's lessening the sanctions on Fidel Castro's Cuba, Donaldson began his analysis with one of a number a Kennedy-Truther notions that have been knocking around ever since President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963....

Another wild card in this crazy deck was Cuba's El Presidente, Castro. The theory being that Castro was upset with JFK's woefully planned and executed Bay of Pigs attempt at ending his nascent dictatorship, and therefore exacted his revenge by executing the 35th President.

Donaldson's buy-in for this house-of-cards game is apparently the Castro connection.

To wit:

Sam’s back on the sauce, I see.

Donaldson: I'd Like to Ask Castro 'Did You Do It?'

And then when Castro says, "No", Donaldson would say, "Okay, I'm good with that."

[dr_who]

I can just visualize it happening:

DONALDSON: Fidel, did you have JFK killed?

FIDEL: Why yes, I had hiiim killlled. I did. Do you forgiiive me?

(2 minute pause while Castro puffs on his cigar) DONALDSON: Yes!!! (gets weepy, drops to his knees and hugs Fidel Castro's legs).

[Star Traveler]

I’ll have to check it out then... thanks...

[Brilliant]

Only a complete fool would expect him to tell the truth now.

[Balata]

You are exactly right. This thread should be about Sam and anyone who saw him on this mornings program would have to agree he has lost his mind and should quietly “go into the good night”.

[Kansas58]

I think Oswald did it.

I am not sure that Oswald acted alone.

Oswald WAS a Communist at heart.

So, you have a Communist, Oswald, killing JFK.

You have a Muslim, Sirhan Sirhan, killing RFK.

You have liberals in love with Castro, in love with Communism, and unwilling to fight radical Islam -—

Even though Robert Kennedy and John F. Kennedy: WERE KILLED BY COMMUNISTS AND RADICAL MULIMS???

The liberal world view never makes any sense, does it?

[Star Traveler]

I’m actually wondering about Lyndon Johnson, in regards to the Billie Sol Estes fraud, and Johnson having the “job done” in order to get rid of Kennedy because Johnson was going to be dropped from the ticket... LOL...

It was not apparently beyond Lyndon Johnson to do those sorts of things...

[prismsinc]

It doesn't matter. Castro did it, whether he's guilty or not.

These old liberal media types have been spouting this conspiracy for 4 decades. In their minds, they OWN the last attack on America. 9/11 is a Bush neo-con conspiracy to politically shift the sympathy to conservatives in the minds of the American peasant.

This is all pointing to a theory I've had about the old Democrat in America. These liberals are Monarchists. They believe that all countries monarchies, regardless of their written and adhered-to laws.

These people are so damned cynical about the everything we know. They think that America (and all other self proclaimed democracies) is a faux Republic. They think that our independence from a monarchy simply means that we transferred one form of monarchy to another, and then re-labeled something to feed the masses. I can imagine what they think, and maybe say to each other behind closed doors. How can we expect to be better than that from which we separated? Don't kid yourself! There is no justice or rule of law! The powerful make decisions for the powerless, and that's the way it will always be!

I know it's hard to believe, but let me tell you something. JFK was EVERYTHING to these people. He was their chosen King in the American Monarchy. The fact that he was assassinated so early in his tenure was a psychological blow to them. Many of these people have never forgiven the world for how they felt on that day.

These people will NEVER admit this publicly, but the world needs to pay for what was done to JFK in their minds. WE'RE ALL RESPONSIBLE FOR HIS DEATH in their minds. Why? Because no one was ever punished for his murder. 9/11? Hogwash. A great President was assassinated, and no one is seeking justice for him any longer! Those peasants that died in the towers? We're going to WAR for those little people but we never went to WAR for JFK?

This is why they were so against the war. This is mental and quite immature. They're in denial about 9/11 because it MUST be a political conspiracy. They were left holding the bag with JFK's assassination. If that's the way it's going to be, then dammit, this generation can hold the bag for 9/11 and its victims!

[Star Traveler]

You said — The liberal world view never makes any sense, does it?

—

That’s why I’m considering the evidence for Lyndon Johnson being behind the killing of Kennedy... :-)

Why ask him anything? Even on his deathbed, Castro will lie through his teeth.

[steelyourfaith]

Sam may be on to something. Seems that Lee Harvey had an alibi, jammin' with his group about that time.

At the Bob Dole GOP Convention, in San Diego, I was trading Kansas Flag and Kansas Sunflower lapel pins with other Republicans, at the U.S. Grant Hotel.

Sam Donaldson came up and joined our table.

Sam wanted a Kansas lapel pin. I handed him one. “I said, OK, as long as you wear it on the air.”

Sam said, “I can't do that, it might indicate a bias in my reporting.”

I took the lapel pin back.

A short time later, I saw Sam Donaldson, on TV, reporting from the Democrat Convention.

He was wearing an Arkansas lapel pin!

[SlapHappyPappy]

Sam Donaldson was the speaker at my college graduation. I believe he is probably a demon in human form and is therefore immortal. I base this on my up close view of his eyebrows and hairpiece.

Related Video. The channel itself had a very interesting debunking of a lot of the supposed problems with the "magic bullet", but I can't seem to find it. Maybe that's part of the conspiracy? ;)

Anyway, the end of the video linked above is rather interesting.

[Star Traveler]

And..., as a follow-up here...

You were saying — I think Oswald did it.

—

Well, this proves, to me at least, that the “double-agent” disguise of Oswald (in that he was a Communist sympathizer) worked very well (in that he was a double-agent, working for the CIA to infiltrate into the Soviet Union). And then he came back after his work was done there, and got involved in infiltrating the Cubans down in the New Orleans area, by setting up this “Fairplay for Cuba” front.

And obviously, he was on another undercover job, there in Dallas, but was not involved in the Kennedy assassination — but maybe Lyndon Johnson was (in connection with the fraud stemming from Billie Sol Estes and Kennedy dropping Johnson from the ticket)....

[Churchillspirit]

....I have been reading about the JFK assassination since 1966....

Me too. Have you read "Best Evidence" One of the best IMO.

[Wissa]

Oswald did it. He planned it. He carried it out all by himself.

I agree. But just like with the chemtrail believers, it doesn't matter how much evidence the Kennedy conspiracy people are confronted with, they're steadfast in their belief in their pet conspiracy.

I like to ask ol’ Sam “ Do you still get a $50k gov. subsidy check for NOT raising sheep on your ranch?”

[jennyjenny]

Is he gonna ask him what the frequency is at the same time?
