Who murdered JFK?
 
I was watching a show on the assassination of JFK (there will be a bunch of them because this is the 50th anniversary) and was listening to the theories about who did it.....what do you think? Just pick the ONE you think most likely.

Guess there is a book out there about it called "Last Word". The researcher Mark Lane, has written four books on the Kennedy assassination. 

He sort of speculates, according to his direct involvement with RFK and JFK, that both John and Robert were planning on disbanding the CIA.  That could explain the confusing deaths behind JFK, RFK and Marilyn Monroe.

85% of Americans think it was the CIA.

Right. The same 85% who believe the moon landing was staged in a TV studio?

The same 85% who believe the 9/11 attacks were organized by Israel and Karl Rove?

The same 85% who believe a dead Martian is hidden in Area 51?

The same 85% who are worried about chemtrails?

I think the more accurate statistic would be 85% of CT nuts, not 85% of Americans.

Mark Lane has made a career as a conspiracy theory lunatic. In addition to Kennedy, he's written about the CIA murdering Martin Luther King.

He was Jim Jones's lawyer at The People's Temple, and was actually in Jonestown for the massacre. He was the source of Jim Jones's wild fears about the CIA.

I don't think I'll put much stock in what Mark Lane says.

Right.  What I posted was what the DUmmies watched on tv.  I should have said too, that it was on Geraldo's program.... :rofl:

That's where I remember that name from.  Thanks, GoBucks.

Why do the primitives insist that everything's a vast conspiracy?

Does it never occur to them that sometimes things just happen, and that sometimes the most minor of events or person can convulse society?

I once shot a half dollar at 200 yards with a .338 Lapua. Hit it right behind the ear.
Maybe I did it.

It satisfies the need to feel that life is against them and they never bear responsibility for outcomes.

In 1967 I spent 9 months living on the sixth floor of a hotel. I used to look down at the street below and think, "You know, taking a shot from here would be easy.".....not that I was going to mind you, just thinking about the Kennedy shooting.

Why does the truth constantly need to be tested by polling ? I don't get that. 78% of Americans think polling has led to the decline of our once greatest nation.

To expound a bit:  They need to explain to themselves why their worldview fails, hence it must always be a conspiracy or everything would work.

Yeah, I start to get a headache just typing that shit.......

Surely you're heard of that old poem, "for want of a [horse-shoe] nail, a kingdom was lost....."

I look at history quite different from the way the cousin looks at "history," and I'm always struck by how little thngs, random things, accidental things, can change things in a hurry.

But the primitives have no idea of "time and [random] chance;" apparently they think the whole world and all its people are manipulated by some greater force.

Bah, humbug.

I once shot a big horsefly that landed on my target at 100 yards, with a .222. It was absolutely done on purpose, and I saved the target for years. A very nice five-shot group, then four or five inches away a single bullet hole with a halo of red horsefly guts.

So do I, and I pray to Him every day, but try mentioning His name in the presence of a liberal...

It fascinates me how little a grasp DUmmies have on reality.  Truly amazing.

Maybe the same person who shot the Kursk.

I heard Chuck Norris went back in time to block the bullet with his chin. JFK was so amazed that his head exploded from the awesomeness.

But wouldn't that mean that the primitives would be acknowledging that God exists? You'd think that there would be reports in the news of people's craniums exploding from the conundrum of a DUche acknowledging the existance of a higher power!  :-)

Hmm. (Watch out yall, imma get my conspiracy on) Who shot JFK.... I have always assumed the powers that be within the Democratic Party. (Dem dems have big union/mafia ties ya know...and they ain't squeaky clean. They funded that little group known as the kkk...)
The way they trot the dead Kennedy brothers out for every DNC is quite suspicious.  :whistling:
Hehe

Btw....6 people voted George Bush?! Have they no shame? Will they blame a bush for anything?
Yes...yes of course they will.
