America has been on a slide into the third world ever since the coup of 1963.

"the stench of truth" is so thick I can smell it right up here in Canada.

One only needs eyes to see and ears to hear

the truth is all around America today

from the 24 trillion stolen to prop up foreign owned banks to illegal wars and the constant lying to the American people.

Who are left in the dark because the lies now are 50 years deep.

911 and more 911 will come because Americans take it all lying down.

@cdddraftsman -- Pathetic, blindly repeating bland lemming shill-swill lacking even a minimal grasp of the evidenciary, testiment and circumstantial proof of massive coordinated cover-up, tampering and fabrication designed to implicate Oswald the FBI informant, CIA asset, anti-Marxist patsy as the designated fall-guy; Read Dr. Mary's Monkey for background on Dallas 1963 Nov. FACT: The wt. mass of bullets/fragments observed striking curb, found in the Limo, Conally & JFK is MORE than in 2 shots.

It was the Cubans no it wasn't the Cubans, Oswald was in Mexico City no Oswald was not in Mexico City, Bobby and Jack wanted Fidel dead up until Jack died no that is not true. JIm Garrison was right on the money no Jim Garrison was a nut. It was the CIA and the Mob no it was not the Cia or the Mob. I can't take it anymore, we'll never know the truth.

Awesome book, read it and make your own judgements...but 3 things to remember: You dont need "official" backing from the whole of each agency; a few from the CIA here, a few from the FBI there; friends who have had multi-agency careers. The US was an utterly divided country from '60-'68; civil war was at least possible... And an extremely proffessional assassination is not likely to leave hard evidence behind. But the scale of the job is such that circumstancial evidnence: abundant.

America's last free and independent President was Kennedy. All the rest have been puppets. John-John had indicated he was going to reveal to the world who the insiders were that murdered his father through his popular mag George. Short time later a surface-to-air missle takes his private plane down off Martha's Vineyard. Wake up people, our government is corrupt. The Wall St Banksters have shaken us down for 26+ Trillion. We have the best government money can buy!

@steveforsane There were shots from the DALTEX and Grassy Knoll,and maybe even someone shooting from the TSBD

[starmanskye]

ALL of the SS agents involved dispute that Kennedy told them to ride in the follow-up car. Kennedy had NEVER interfered with or countermanded SS protocol. He was one of the best-natured, easy-going, gracious presidents they ever served -- So Talbot's premise that Kennedy gave them orders to ride in the following car is bullshit, tending to invalidate all of his comments.

@Zoidborg1 Please remember that when you talk about the "Whole F.B.I" in 1963, you're talking about just one man-J. Edgar Hoover who hated the President.

[Zoidborg1]

i believe this eye witness account... it is damming to the FBI (witness doctoring)... but changes nothing, there is still no evidence of another shooter, no bullets, no casings, no visual witnesses.

the idea that almost the whole FBI is involved in a conspiracy to overthrow the government, and nobody let the secret out before hand... is absurd

we have all heard sounds eco from the wrong direction, it sounds very convincing

@cdddraftsman Your dosage seems excessive. I'll cut back on it when I dose myself.

Nap time for you, pet.

@OneVoiceMore "We'll see how it plays out, TALKER"

* Your implied answer indicates the JFK Con-Spiracy Hoax is just a game to you.

"You want me dead? Come get some"

* I really couldn't imagine a person who was born 'anencephaly' doing any worse than you're doing now. Do those stewpid pills really work that well? Just curious.
