  1. *sniff* do you smell fish?
    i agree with the investigators, it was probably some kids fishing and when they caught the shark, realized it was to hard to cut up or illegal to catch (because it is on the Eastern seaboard without a license) and dumped it in the woods. If this was in New Jersey, it would not even make the news 😛

    LOL

  2. Jackie O.* And LBJ*~She over estimated LBJ’s intelligence!
    Red Pill,

    I agree that LBJ and a cabal of Texans were part of the plot to asasinnate JFK*. But, LBJ was not the brains. LBJ was not very bright and he did what his handlers told him to do. LBJ was, however, greedy for money and power. Allen Dullas, J. Edgar Hoover, and the military Joint Chiefs of Staff probably planned the assination. Allen Dullas, former head of the CIA, and the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff were both fired by JFK. J. Edgar Hoover had been put in his place by both JFK and Bobby Kennedy, the Attorney General.

    I’m certain that LBJ was very happy about the plan to asasinnate JFK; but, he didn’t have the brains to pull it off. I also think that Lee Harvey Oswald, a CIA asset, was a dupe and that his murder by Jack Ruby, which I witnessed on live television, was faked.

    *
    Jackie O. = Jackie Kennedy
    JFK = John F. Kennedy
    LBJ = Lyndon Baines(No Brains) Johnson

    I know that there is corruption in Mexico. But, in terms of corruption, the U.S. is just as corrupt!

    1. LBJ
      Yeah, I guess nobody is even considering the possibility that Johnson was the real mastermind behind the conspiracy. The real question is when did he become privy to it: before or after the event.

      You say he wasn’t a very smart president, but what about all his ‘Great Society’ legislation? isn’t it true that from the PoV of social reform, he actually achieved more than Kennedy ever did?

      1. LBJ Achieved What JFK Would Have Achieved If He Had Lived!
        Red Pill,

        The Great Society was JFK’s* idea and LBJ took credit for it! In this regard, it should be noted that Sammy Davis Jr. became the first African-American to sleep in the White House during JFK’s Administration. The 1964 civil rights act was one of many things that JFK wanted to do and it’s signing was a tribute to the great leadership of JFK! Furthermore, the signing of the 1964 Civil Rights Act was a great political move for LBJ in an election year. A few other things that JFK was planning to do were:

        1} Normalize diplomatic relations with Cuba!**

        2} Have the U.S. print its own money and abolist the Federal Reserve and the debt owed to it for printing money!***

        3} Remove the U.S. from unnecessary involments including foreign wars, close many military bases world wide, and end the cold war by normalizing relations with the U.S.S.R., China, North Vietnam, North Korea, etc.!***

        4} Etc.!

        * JFK was neither perfect nor a saint and I’m not trying to say that he was. But, he did have many good points!

        ** JFK smoked Cuban Cigars in the White House!

        *** #2 got JFK killed and #3 got the military very interested in helping! But, by itself, #3 wasn’t enough to get JFK killed! On the other, #2 was more than enough to get JFK killed!

        Finally, Lady Byrd, LBJ’s wife, had both the money and the connections. She steered LBJ!

          1. I Agree With You! But,…
            Red Pill,

            JFK was killed to prevent him from implimenting what he had already arranged! He had done the ground work!

          2. Prevent him from implementing
            Let’s assume that:

            JFK is killed to prevent him from implementing what he had already arranged.

            LBJ is part of the conspiracy.

            LBJ becomes president.

            LBJ implements the reforms that caused JFK’s death.

            …Am I the only one seeing a problem here?

      2. No excuse
        I apologize for jumping into yall’s thread but…

        There is no acceptable logic, no reasoning that excuses the assassination of the president. No matter how badly he may have presided based on one’s political or world views, there is no absolution for this kind of crime. This man was elected by the people. Even taking into consideration the horrible mess that towed Dubya Bush into office in 2000, there is no legitimizing assassinating him. He still represented this nation.

        As I mentioned in my post down at the bottom of this stack, there are others who believe that LBJ was behind the deed. Over the years, most accounts of this man lead may one to conclude that he was a boorish Texas redneck at best, and a heartless bastard at worst.

        But even so, there would have been no way to excuse his assassination, either.

        I recall the day that Kennedy was killed. We heard about it in class and when I got home, it was the first words out of my parents. Even 9.11 doesn’t come close to this kind of thing.

        Okay… that’s my view. Once again, apologies from dropping in uninvited…

        Best 🙂

        1. Agreed
          JFK’s death was undoubtedly a turning point in history, with ripples that reach us to this very day.

          It is one of the many reasons why distrust in government has turned pervasive, with all the terrible side-effects this implies –UFOs, climate change, etc etc etc.

        2. LBJ Did What Was Best For LBJ’s Political Career!
          Redoubt,

          I agree with you for the most part! You are being moch too kind to LBJ!:) Don’t forget that Lady Byrd, LBJ’s wife, had the money, the brains, and the connections.

          The assination was probably planned by J. Edgar Hoover, Head of the FBI, and Allen Dullas, former Head of the CIA who JFK fired, with the assistance of Organized Crime, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Lady Byrd for operations in Texas. Lady Byrd had excellent connections in Texas, just Texas.

  3. Rounding a bend on the JFK assassination
    These tapes made by the widow of JFK (Jackie Kennedy) coincide with an interview a few years back with one Madeleine Duncan Brown, who claimed to be a mistress of Lyndon Johnson. The concept that LBJ was the engine behind the assassination is the common thread in both.

    There are still a few full length (81 min) versions on You Tube, but you have to dig them out. There is also one at Google… or was 24 hours ago. They have been disappearing from You Tube but I managed to rip a copy before the link was goner.

    Here’s a link to the Google video of the interview.
    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=1929769365635576415

    For those who have never seen it, Ms. Brown retells a lot of collateral story as well so… you have to stay with it pretty much all the way through to realize the full impact of what she is saying.

    Taken together with what may be emerging from the Jackie Kennedy tapes, there could be a major rounding of the bend.
