Odds of the truth coming out tomorrow about JFK on 50th Anniversary?

[brettdale]

It is more likely that...

The westbro church will hold a gay pride rally.

Fox News will be fair and balanced.

Chicago will win next years world series.

The NewZealand cricket team will win a match

Garth Brooks will do another Chris Gaines album (that would be cool actually)

I will marry Christina Ricci or Anna Paquin

So basically, I dont think its going to happen.

1. The truth is already out there.

Oswald killed Kennedy.

2. +1

3. Perhaps, but the truth about who was behind him, that is not 'out there' in the opinions of far too

many people to be ignored.

Why won't they just release all of the documents relating to the case? It's been 50 years. It's history, yet, they are still hiding material from the public. If they have nothing to hide, then release everything.

5. Really? Sabrina believes they are hiding the truth about JFK?

I never would have imagined.

[Dreamer Tatum]

4. Yes, because you'd believe anyone who has a 'truth' other than what you want to hear.

So, actually, because you already have your truth in mind, it won't come out tomorrow because it already has.

6. I thought The X-Files already exposed this years ago it was

The Cigarette Smoking Man.



From "Musings of A Cigarette Smoking Man" Season 4


And then he shot him





And then told this dude everything

7. I believe they are hiding SOMETHING, but I don't know what and to what extent...

I wouldn't be sure enough of anything to yell 'conspiracy' ... but they wouldn't still have documents sealed if there wasn't something they did not want us to see.

For all we know, it could have been the government behind Oswald's assassination and not Kennedy that they want to hide. Or they simply want to hide how badly they bungled the investigation.

But they have been far too murky to be telling the whole truth.

Part of me does wonder if there was a plot behind JFK's death, and it is actually the only 'conspiracy theory' I even maybe-sorta-kinda entertain. I'm not saying it was a government plot, but something just feels odd about how it was all handled.

I'm not all knowing, however. So I would never claim to know the truth until the truth was apparent to al.

8. Not with the Bushies still around

Here's a bit about Bush, the CIA head and President who has been covering up all these years. Thanks Octafish.



From "The Unauthorized Biography of George Bush"...

EXCERPT...

During the preparation of the present work, there was one historical moment
which more than any other delineated the character of George Bush. The
scene was the Nixon White House during the final days of the Watergate
debacle. White House officials, including George Bush, had spent the
morning of that Monday, August 5, 1974 absorbing the impact of Nixon's
notorious "smoking gun" tape, the recorded conversation between Nixon and
his chief of staff, H.R. Haldemann, shortly after the original Watergate
break-in, which could now no longer be withheld from the public. In that
exchange of June 23, 1972, Nixon ordered that the CIA stop the FBI from
further investigating how various sums of money found their way from Texas
and Minnesota via Mexico City to the coffers of the Committee to Re-Elect
the President (CREEP) and thence into the pockets of the "Plumbers"
arrested in the Democratic Party headquarters in the Watergate building.
These revelations were widely interpreted as establishing a "prima facie"
case of obstruction of justice against Nixon. That was fine with George,
who sincerely wanted his patron and benefactor Nixon to resign. George's
great concern was that the smoking gun tape called attention to a
money-laundering mechanism which he, together with Bill Liedtke of
Pennzoil, and Robert Mosbacher, had helped to set up at Nixon's request.
When Nixon, in the "smoking gun" tape, talked about "the Texans" and "some
Texas people," Bush, Liedtke, and Mosbacher were among the most prominent
of those referred to. The threat to George's political ambitions was great.

The White House that morning was gripped by panic. Nixon would be gone
before the end of the week. In the midst of the furor, White House
Congressional liaison William Timmons wanted to know if everyone who needed
to be informed had been briefed about the smoking gun transcript. In a
roomful of officials, some of whom were already sipping Scotch to steady
their nerves, Timmons asked Dean Burch, "Dean, does Bush know about the
transcript yet?"

"Yes," responded Burch.

"Well, what did he do?" inquired Timmons.

"He broke out into assholes and shit himself to death," replied Burch.

In this exchange, which is recorded in Woodward and Bernstein's "The Final
Days," we grasp the essential George Bush, in a crisis, and for all
seasons.
