Remembering 11-22-63
I thought I might find a token memory on one or two of my favorite sites, but nope, not on Ruppert, not on Carolyn Baker.net....
Here's what I found: Deseret News, Salk Lake City, columnist Lee Benson
11/22/63: Are you old enough to remember?

John F. Kennedy Quotes

IS THERE AN AMERICAN SHADOW GOVERNMENT? 

---

Ladies & gentlemen:

Does there actually exist a shadow government that controls all things in America, like the Wizard of Oz behind that flowing presidential curtain? Many Americans today believe there is, and there is strong circumstantial evidence in support of it.

A number of Americans believe the United States Government was hijacked back in the 30's, when FDR set the trend for American socialism with his "New Deal" prescriptions for overcoming the Great Depression, and I cannot argue with them entirely. Those enactments like Social Security, the Emergency Powers Act and the establishment of our social welfare programs certainly did violate basic constitutional government restrictions. But in my mind, there was a following event of far more monumental proportions that occurred: It was the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. I believe that was the moment the others finally took complete control over this nation...

Why don't we think of, and dwell on, a more positive anniversary — make that two anniversaries — today:

40th anniversary of release of The White Album
45th annviersary of release of With The Beatles (2nd U.K. LP)

I know this guy — not a friend or anything like that, but I have talked with him at social events. And I was one of the people, like he mentioned in the article, who annoy him by asking: When will the book be done?  

This is this guy's life work, so to speak. I guess I don't get the fascination or the compulsion.

Today is my dad's birthday and he told me he remembers being in a bar celebrating with friends when they saw Walter Cronkite reporting the news on a TV in the bar.

Someone killed JFK?    I've got to start watching the news more often...........

Yet another "definitive" study attempting to put JFK assassination conspiracy theories to rest for good.

Nov. 22, 1963

I don't hold out much hope that this book will accomplish what Bugliosi, Posner, and other well-intentioned researchers have attempted previously.
