2. Ask him why, when he saw the Zapruder film
Edited on Mon Dec-13-10 04:56 PM by PCIntern
he narrated it by saying that Kennedy's head went forward when in fact, it snapped backwards. He was narrating it b/c it was not allowed to be shown, so his verbal description is all that was in the public domain until the film was finally released.

this is gonna make me real popular around here...

6. What WAS the frequency, Kenneth?
What I really would ask you to ask, librechik:

Why did you stand up to Bush when most of your colleagues kept quiet?

11. Find a nice way to ask him if he agrees with the *false* equivalency of
what Faux News does and what MSNBC or "the Left" does.
