Who Killed JFK?
The Andrea Shea King Show ^ | Feb. 4, 2009 | Andrea Shea King

Posted on 02/04/2009 11:49:12 AM PST by patriotgal1787

Do you believe that the November 22, 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy was the result of shots fired by a lone assassin from the 6th floor of the Texas School Book Depository?

Or are you one of many who believe it was a conspiracy that involved the highest levels of our government?

The case is not closed regarding what actually happened on that fateful day.

The late President Gerald R. Ford, the last surviving member of the commission admitted that the CIA destroyed pertinent documents, covering up the investigation of the assassination, in a recently published book.

Tim Miller, the book publisher who helped author the text, believes there was a conspiracy and that Ford knew even more than he told his publisher and the world. Ford shares many other breath-taking admissions with the reader in this, his final book, written three years prior to his own death.

What did Ford say about the "single bullet theory," the Zapruder film, and Oliver Stone’s movie, JFK?

"Who killed John F. Kennedy?"

Tim Miller joins us to discuss tonight at 9 p.m. ET -- link to the show here.

Its simple folks.... never visit Dallas in an open convertible when your vice president is from Texas!

LOL! Now that's what I call a bottom line in plain sight!

No, it was the Mafia. Payback for Bobby K’s going after them when they had helped Kennedy go after Castro. Same for Bobby’s death.

So if Kennedy had his back to Oswald, then how do you account for the bullet that hit him in the right side of the forehead?

B-A-L-O-N-E-Y! I’ve seen specials on the Discovery Channel, the Learning Channel and The National Geographics Channel...all using sharp-shooters, all making the shots. Since the sixth floor depository is now a museum, people go up there all the time see if they can do it. You can too.

RE: "Someone would have squealed by now."

Some did squeal and they are dismissed as nuts.

I remember those days. I remember the talk that LBJ was out in 1964. I remember the investigations of Bobby Baker, Billie Sol Estes, et al -- including organized crime and murders -- and I ask, who had the most to lose BIG time if JFK was re-elected?

I did not source this but I swear I remember talk that the Kennedy's had taken note of LBJ's shenanigans and LBJ would not be on the ticket in 1964. Meanwhile the federal investigations continued and they had "legs" in the MSM world.

Call me a nut.. please! but I believe LBJ was definitely involved if not the actual leader. The involvement of the Vice President, CIA personnel, et al in no way besmirches the office of the VP or the CIA itself, these were individuals.

Multiply 1.74 by 10, and you get 17.4, the EXACT age of George W Bush when JFK was assassinated!

Ahem.. Koff. koff...

Wow... that's, umm... pretty impressive work there.

I'm pretty sure he killed John Lennon and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. too, didn't he?

I mean, the numbers don't lie.

Because to a True Believer, no amount of evidence will ever be enough.

Actually the Carcano is one of the worst military rifles ever. They are generally fairly roughly made. I have owned several of them.

Having said that, they are still an effective rifle, fully capable of doing the job.

Now all these experts who keep saying Oswald was a real sharpshooter are all wet. He barely qualified and I think they gave him the designation of marksman or maybe sharpshooter, I can't recall off hand, which is a bit of a misnomer as it was the lowest grade the Marines gave for someone who qualified. I have read more than once that he failed to qualify on his first attempt, tho I don't know if that is true since so much misinformation is out there.

Now shooting is something I have done all my life and it is one of the few things I really know. Yes, Oswald's shots were possible but really difficult even for a good shot. The fact that it could have been done is enough to make it possible tho. The fact that it was difficult is enough to make one suspicious.

Then you have very poor taste. Jacqueline Lee Bouvier Kennedy was definitely NOT GUILTY no matter what she did.

“I believe that is true. For there to have only been one shooter, at least one of the bullets would have had to have made at least 3 right angle turns, and that is highly unlikely.”

That’s the old canard used by conspiracists along with the “magic bullet” theory. Connally was sitting on a jump seat, lower and inboard of Kennedy. Simulations show that the shot lines up beautifully. Also, the magic bullet was heavily deformed. It only appears pristine from one side (the photo conspiracists always show).

Every one on the inside knows that Martin Luther King Jr. had Jesse Jackson pay the Russians to kill JFK and set Lee Harvey Oswald up as the fall guy so Johnson could become president, pass the war on poverty, and start the ball rolling to get a black man elected president.

Heh, heh.

You have fallen for the biggest lie of the conspiracy theorists. That Kennedy and Connaly sat in line with each other.

Here's a photo of the inside of the limo - driver side. The passenger side mirrors this. The jump seat where Connoly rides is INBOARD and BELOW where Kennedy sat and is in direct line with the TSBD.

That is untrue. Computer modeling of the scene depicted in the Zabruder film shows that Kennedy & Connolly are perfectly aligned at the moment that the "single bullet fact" occurred.

It’s been done recently, but at the time of the investigation, neither the FBI or the Army could duplicate the shots. You could look it up....

Did Kennedy’s brain really disappear from the National Archives? What was that all about?

Who, I have no idea. But *why* he was killed, I have a novel idea.

JFK had Addison’s disease, also known as chronic adrenal insufficiency, an endocrine disorder, among his other numerous physical complaints. This explains the odd appearance of his skin, one of the obvious symptoms of the disease. At the time, it could have been diagnosed by a physician familiar with the disease just by looking at him from a few feet away.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addison’s_disease

At the time, the only treatment for the disease was the use of cortisone, still a relatively new and misunderstood “miracle drug”. For several years in the 1940s, he had cortisone injections, when the drug was still rare and expensive, but by the time of his presidency, he would intermittently take cortisone pills, now in mass production.

It was incorrectly popularly believed at the time that cortisone would or could cause severe clinical paranoia. This was reinforced by a popular movie that came out in 1956, entitled “Bigger Than Life”, which starred a powerful performance by the top star James Mason, of a man driven murderously insane from taking cortisone pills.

http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0049010/

In the context of the time, when America was still traumatized by the Cuban Missile Crisis, and there was a tremendous public fear of nuclear war, the bad logic could have gone like this:

1) JFK is sick. A doctor who looked at him says it is Addison’s disease, which fatal without treatment.
2) The only way to treat Addison’s disease is with cortisone. Cortisone will drive you mad. You remember that movie?
3) When JFK goes mad, he will start a nuclear war. He already came close to starting a nuclear war over Cuba.
4) “We” (whoever “we” is) can’t allow that to happen. JFK will never voluntarily step down for health reasons. This leaves “us” no choice but to kill JFK.

It was purple-skinned reptilian monsters from Planet Zork.

Which is just what the Bilderburgers WANT you to believe!

The Trilateral Commission and the Grays had a problem: JFK's relationship with Jackie meant that she might let slip vital government secrets to her lover, Marilyn Monroe. To prevent this, Elvis and Bobby Kennedy conspired with the remnants of the Fourth Reich, safe in their base in the Artic at the entry to the hollow earth to hatch a plan: If they could convince the REAL H.G.Wells to bring back killer robot clones from the future to hunt down and shoot Jackie after Marilyn went into hiding with James Arness, who, it can now be revealed, really WAS a form of deadly carnivorous carrot, not just playing one as he did in that B movie. Well, after the MIB's found out, they managed to use selective weather control hardware placed into Sputnik by Nicoli Tesla to convince Lee Harvey (ROBOT!) Oswald to twitch at the critical moment by beaming (AGAIN!) Elvis music into his head through the fillings in his teeth, and whamo, the shot MISSES JACKIE, takes out JFK, AND BEFORE YOU KNOW IT I TURN INTO THE KIND OF PERSON WHO POSTS IN ALL CAPS AND ENDS SENTENCES WITH MANICAL LAUGHTER AND TOO MANY EXCLAIMATION POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
