He would be increadibly safe till 12:00 pm. EST January 20, 2007. If you want to understand the significance of that time and date, reread the 25th amendment to the US Constitution.

"A decade of Hellary is one scary thought"

Yes indeed.

I recall now that it is the 22nd amendment that is relevant amendment rather than the 25th, but still if the president dies past the midway point of his elected term, the vice president can serve out the rest of the term and be elected twice as president yielding a total of up to ten years in office.

You refer to the limit on the office of the president in the 22d Amendment:

After further review the replay shows it was the 22nd amendment and not the 25th amendment. That's a five yard penatly, but still first down.

Do you know whether the grassy knoll was on the left or right of the motorcade,your comment rings true but I never thought about the where the grassy knoll was relative to the motorcade.

The grassy knoll was to the right of the motorcade, and immediately after the shots people were seen running toward it because they believed that's where they came from.

And I agree, the Warren Report was a joke and has since been discredited. The government itself has now concluded it was likely there was more than one gunman. But I think they knew that from the very beginning and covered it up.

Doesn't that then make Barr McClellan ex husband of Carol Keyton Rylander (or whatever her name is now), because isn't Scott McClellan her son?

Hope I didn't confuse you or me!!

Here is a discussion of that bullet Commission Exhibit 399 which includes remarks by autopsists and forensic experts who express disbelief it caused the wounds attributed to it:

Governor Connally's Wrist Wound and CE-399.

The criticality of the bullet is that it is tasked to account for the seven wounds to exclude additional shots and the subsequent explosion of the lone gunman theory.

The trajectory of the rear shot with throat exit is likewise impossible with its entry placed at the FBI's measurements, which are corroborated by autopsy measurements.

The throat exit is denied by the Parkland personnel who stipulate it was a wound of entry.

Lane, Mark. Plausible Denial: Was the CIA Involved in the Assassination of JFK? New York: Thunder's Mouth Press, 1991. 393 pages.

This bestseller recounts the defamation case brought by E. Howard Hunt against the newspaper Spotlight and its publisher Liberty Lobby. Hunt sued because of a 1978 article by another former CIA officer, Victor Marchetti, who wrote that an internal CIA memo had surfaced that placed Hunt in Dallas on the day of JFK's assassination. In the process of defending the newspaper, Lane was able to take depositions from David Atlee Phillips, Richard Helms and Stansfield Turner.

The trial featured the testimony of Marita Lorenz, Fidel Castro's former mistress, in which she said that she had been with Hunt, Frank Sturgis and Jack Ruby in Dallas on November 21. The jury concluded that Hunt lied about his whereabouts on the day of the assassination.

PS: In the book it says Hunt claimed to be home in Virginia on the day of the assasination, but his wife and kids never supported his story. Who here over the age of 55 doesn't remember where they were on that day?

How about the "single bullet theory"? That of the three shots fired, One missed, One was the final head shot, and the third hit both Kennedy and Connally a total of seven times?

Hillary is no laughing matter, and I think you and dfu and I can heartily concur the world will not be safe while she slouches toward Bethlehem.

She is making the calculation you infer and others as well:

E.g., that only another domestic terror event on the scale of September 11 will sufficiently damage Bush's numbers and the GDP to get her disgusting carcass into the Oval Office.

Crucifixes, strands of garlic, and dedicated grass-roots counter-campaigning will save us and our posterity from that nightmare scenario.

Sure would have been alot better for America if it had been Johnson instead of JFK to take the dirt nap.

Absolutely, EVERYONE remembers where they were on that day. Just like people will remember where they were on the morning of 9-11.

A co-worker swore Oswald was in the lunch room on the first or second floor getting a Coke out of a machine. The first officer on the scene asked the manager if Oswald was an employee. The manager said yes and they ran to the 6th floor, while Oswald calmly left the building. The witnesses saw no sign of nervousness or exertion in Oswald.

Barbara Olson in Hell to Pay says Hillary's sealed Wellesley thesis was a paean to Saul Alinsky, radical counselling, "Tell any lie for power."

I've got the Milton, Ingraham, Noonan, and Olson books on her, and can check.

Yes. She was Mayor of Austin back in the 1970s before changing to Republican and then going into statewide politics. I believe she was Carole Keeton then Carole Keeton McClellan then Carole Keeton Rylander and now she's Carole Keeton Strayhorn. She's the reason I've never voted a striaght Republican ticket. Will never vote for her. A RINO with a capital R. Wouldn't trust her for Dog Catcher.

...proving Gerald Posner (Case Closed) is right?

Posner's argument hinges on the timing of Oswald's employment at the Texas Book Depository. He proved that the itinerary of the motorcade could not have been known to Oswald prior to his taking the job. Neither the decision to go to Dallas nor the itinerary had been decided upon in the WH until after Oswald had aready started working in the book depository. Ipso facto, according to Posner, it was sheer dumb luck that gave Oswald access to a sniper's perch on the day Kennedy came through Dallas.

Now here's the twist. Posner's theory assumes that WH officials had clean hands. He writes only about the public disclosure of the decision to go to Dallas. For Posner it is the date of the public disclosure that forecloses the possibility that Oswald could have known to get a job at the TBD. But if high level officials in the WH knew a good deal earlier of Kennedy's intention to go to Dallas, and the decision was simply held to a small circle for a period of time, then Posner's theory falls apart. And if one of those officials was Lyndon Baines Johnson, then McClennan's theory is not disposed of by Posner, and Johnson conceivably could have plotted to put a sniper at that spot on that day.

Barbara Olson, Hell to Pay, Regnery, 1998, page 50:

In the fall of 1968, Hillary informed her thesis advisor, political scientist Alan Schechter, that she would write a paper questioning how much control poor people should have over programs designed for their benefit. She interviewed Alinsky, and concluded that Johnson-era programs did not go far enough. The problems of poverty made it necessary for a fundamental shift in the structure of power.

~~~
She hired Craig Livingstone.

Vince Foster did not have his Honda keys on him until Craig Livingstone brought them to the morgue.

The devil is in the details.

From FAQ by John Locke

9.1.4 Oswald had an alibi.

False. Oswald has no alibi for the time of the shooting. He was seen by fellow employees approximately thirty minutes before the shooting; and in the second floor lunchroom by the TSBD supervisor and a cop approximately ninety seconds after the shooting. In the late seventies, a former TSBD employee (Carolyn Arnold) told author Anthony Summers that she had seen Oswald fifteen minutes before the shooting, but her fellow employees dispute her account.

9.1.5 Oswald could not have escaped from the sixth floor in time.

False. The TSBD is 30x30 yards square. A cop approximated he saw Oswald in the second floor lunchroom ninety seconds after the shooting. Considering that a reasonably fit young man like Oswald can run at least 400 yards in ninety seconds, there is no reason to believe he couldn't have gone from the sixth to the second floor in that time and still had time to conceal the gun behind boxes. At any rate, the route was timed and verified as possible.
