has itself been subsequently called into question and its authenticity (?) questioned by independent scientists. (I used the word 'authenticity' b/c I think the scientists question whether the Dictabelt captures the sounds of gunshots or some other noise.)
I would be suspicious from the get-go of any Commission that included Allen Dulles as one of its members. (Arlen Specter and Gerald Ford also caused me to raise my eyebrows, but Dulles really sticks in my craw.)
I count myself agnostic on the question of a conspiracy and have started to read the WCR now to educate myself further and broaden my understanding. Next up, Bugliosi's book from LA Public Library.
Last night, my wife said, "What difference does it make now?" (knowing who was responsible for JFK's murder). I replied, "This thread and others on DU show how deeply the assassination affected people and hurt them. And there's the whole question of making sure to the extent we can that justice has been done." I think my wife was worried that I, in true obsessive-compulsive fashion, was preparing to slip down the rabbit hole
On edit: My wife has just reminded me that a majority of today's Americans were not even born yet when JFK was assassinated and thus do not have this in their consciousness as important.
