Mark Lane, JFK assassination expert, has died.

22. I've never called him a douche, if that's what you mean.

While I don't agree with him politically, I quoted him in regards to Gov. Don Siegelman once on DU and have heard a lot about it ever since whenever I write something that hurts someone's little feelings.

Here's what Dr. Roberts wrote the other day:

When They Killed JFK They Killed America

EXCERPT...

Unlike most presidents, Kennedy was able to break with the conventional thinking of the time.

From his experience with the Bay of Pigs, Cuban Missile Crisis, and the Joint Chiefs’ “Operaton Northwoods,” Kennedy concluded that CIA Director Allen Dulles and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Lemnitzer were both crazed by anti-communism and were a danger to Americans and the world.

Kennedy removed Dulles as CIA director, and he removed Lemnitzer as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, thus setting in motion his own assassination. The CIA, the Joint Chiefs, and the Secret Service concluded that JFK was “soft on communism.” So did the Bill Buckley conservatives.

JFK was assassinated because of anti-communist hysteria in the military and security agencies.

The Warren Commission was well aware of this. The coverup was necessary because America was locked into a Cold War with the Soviet Union. To put US military, CIA, and Secret Service personnel on trial for murdering the President of the United States would have shaken the confidence of the American people in their own government.

Thanks for remembering. Paul Craig Roberts, a Republican, today agrees with the conclusions Mark Lane, a Democrat, made in 1964.
