1. I dunno. Can't get excited. Pretty sure secrets were kept. Pretty sure the conservatives

hated the Kennedys. Pretty sure they got MLK.

Easy to kill someone with a gun. Easy to believe mistakes were made.

We are a violent species.

Too long ago to get all excited about it.

2. They had to block the heavy stuff because GHWB is still alive.

Maybe after Jeb and GWB pass away too we'll learn that GHWB was involved, as I believe to be the case.

Don't delete this post, JFK conspiracy crap should be allowed now. It's relevant to current news.

i'm similarly expecting little of interest beyond a bit more trivia about it all.

i have to think that if there really was anything major, it would have leaked by now.

5. Oswald worked for the CIA. It all goes back to that.

Bet nobody has bothered to read the excellent material linked above, or has read anything from John Newman, whose work is pretty much factually unassailable—documented to the point of making his book a difficult read>>>>

This remarkable book could never have been composed or even contemplated without the existence of the Assassination Records Review Board. No book takes us more into Oswald's workings with the intelligence community than this one. And his section on Mexico City is clearly one of the 5 or 6 greatest discoveries made in the wake of the ARRB, writes Jim diEugenio

The Education Forum has the most level headed discussions about JFK Assassination I’ve seen; well worth a look. Here’s a good assessment of the CIA/FBI fabrication of the México city trip:

http://educationforum.ipbhost.com/topic/23519-marina-the-commission-and-mexico-city/

What got me going was the out of hand dismissal by EVERY person on cnn/MSNBC today of the “crazy conspiracy” theorists out there, while accepting the BS wrt Mexico City; no balance at all, across the board

Check these links, and check out John Newman, who before the Oswald/cia book, wrote a well received one on how JFK was getting ready to leave Vietnam
