That wasn’t the point. Set up or not, JFK was the last conservative sort of democrat, and being a sort of catholic in comm with the Vatican (and hence vietnam machinations in the middle of this)— represented at least to those who loved the “camelot” a kind of decent family time. Never mind all the security risks he posed, his habits, his power crazy brother, and.... the mob. Never forget the Castros didn’t forget the plots, and the Alpha 66 never forgot the lack of air support at Bay of Pigs, among other things.
Rush’s point is salient. Oswald was there. He was a socialist/commie who had lived in USSR and made inroads at Mexican embassy for them. A nut. And, for what it is worth- the shot was NOT impossible. It is a straightaway line. Ask any sniper. But, I get your point. And look to LBJ- a more lying SOB there never was, and who put the US into the “war on poverty” a trillion later and we gets.... obamaumao and more white guilt that never ends.
Look at the prayerman evidence by Sean Murphy & Stan Dane....mind blowing. They are not talking about Lovelady standing in the doorway, we know he was there, but Oswald standing way in the back...new, cleaned up pictures look just like him. Google prayman JFK images. It’s not just the picture, Murphy has done some new, and troubling research that places Oswald near the front door on the first floor. during the shooting. I’m no conspiracy person, but this new research is impressive.
And what little bit of evidence do you have, vs. the mountain of evidence that Oswald did it. Alone.
I heard this segment in snippets today, I had to leave in the middle and was pretty distracted.
This was as wrong as I have ever heard Rush. I couldn’t find myself agreeing with his (or the author’s) thesis, or logic, or mindset.
Rush has a point.
“Sympathy For The Devil” comes to my mind. A great Stones song and put out just a few years after the assassination.

Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name, oh yeah
Ah, what’s puzzling you
Is the nature of my game, oh yeah
I watched with glee
While your kings and queens
Fought for ten decades
For the gods they made
I shouted out,
Who killed the Kennedys
When after all
It was you and me
Let me please introduce myself
I’m a man of wealth and taste
And I laid traps for troubadours
Who get killed before they reached Bombay
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guessed my name, oh yeah

However I do believe there is a possibility there was more to this assassination than simply Oswald being the, “Lone assassin”.
“What were the circumstances around the 11/21 attempt? “
I honestly do not remember the rest of the story. I read some account of it probably 25 years ago.
The downfall of Joe McCarthy gave rise to the Communist movement in the 1960s in America on campuses and elsewhere. Openly flying the North Vietnamese flag in a time of war, waving and quoting Mao’s Little Red Book, quoting Che Guevara, etc.
It didn’t CREATE the Communist movement of the 60s, but without backlash, it took over America’s institutions.
Corporations, churches, academia, and the media are now overrun with Marxist claptrap.
The House Committee on Un-American Activities did not begin with McCarthy (it dated back to the 1930s) and it did not end with his downfall, but it took the winds out of the sails.
In 1968 the “New Democrats” rioted outside and inside the DNC convention in Chicago. Today they form the leadership of the Party and the media and academia.
Bill Ayers ceased to be controversial.
Black Lives Matter is just more SDS/WU “Days of rage”.
You should have seen the 6th floor before they turned the thing into a museum. I am a mediocre shot, but even I could have hit Kennedy from that position. I stood in that corner and with a toilet paper tube sighted in the route taken by that car. It was an easy shot. As to what motivated Oswald? Maybe the same as that of the guy who shot McKinley. McKinley, BTW, was much more popular than Kennedy was.
I remember those days and the madness that followed the murder of Robert Kennedy by a Palestinian immigrant in 1968. America has NEVER been the same since!
Bookmarked.
"The goal of socialism is communism" - Vladimir Lenin
Barack Obama did the same thing with Obamacare, he asked that Congress pass it in Ted Kennedy's memory.
I feel like LBJ had something to do with it. People have suggested that the assassination attempt on Reagan was orchestrated by Bush in order to get himself into power. Not sure about the Reagan thing, but I could see LBJ pulling that type of scheme off.
If Oswald was the means, or part of the means, so be it.
(But I've also reviewed tapes of the coverage and can aver that those on site ran toward the Grassy Knoll...and that the best surplus Carcano carbine is close to junk.)
Rush is part right when he says the democrat party changed in November 1963. Kennedy was a carry over liberal who would probably have been a Republican today, he reversed Eisenhower's cautious actions in Indo China (kicking off the escalation later blamed on Johnson) and his fiscal policies were conservative enough to be anathema to today's "progressive" economists...And with his death the dem party clearly changed course.
Pretty convenient
Meanwhile, Academia and the media proclaimed a new myth of Camelot and what might have been...based on things that never were.
LBJ was kind of a composite, still a hawk but wedded to big government "war" on perceived social issues...he was crushed by the same party that elected him.
Since LBJ's crash, and since Nixon's assisted political suicide, the dems have given up any suggestion of bipartisanship and/or concern for the nation...and now we have Obama and every indication that it can & will get worse.
*THIS* is the "money thought". He was nowhere near as "beloved" as has been repeatedly put out, ad infinitum, et ad nauseum, et ad ad absurdum.
He was at best, a mediocre president, who went on a campaign swing in Dallas, the November before his re-election year. Why would he do this, this shoring up of his base, if he was so "beloved" by all? His re-election prospects weren't actually all that good! If Oswald hadn't killed him, he would have been 'one, and done' at any rate...
the infowarrior
I lived it too, dark days for America have followed all the way to the election of the "Incompetent Won".
hmm
bump
Haha.
Because there is absolutely no evidence, let alone proof, that anyone other than Oswald commited the crime. Before you go off, I have read dozens of books, seen all the films, gone to lectures, even visited the assassination site. Oswald did it. The obfuscation began with that pinko Mark Lane, with support of the KGB. The confusion continues, but the truth has been known since November of 1963.
I’ve been there too. Concur with your description.
