We are not a free country anymore. Because the people that are smart
enough and powerful enough to take out a President like that, and get away
with it for 25 years, are probably involved in other areas of the
Government. In other words, the country is being run by people we did not
vote for.

I've had a good-quality copy of the '64 CBS program for years now. It
was made available by NARA through Amazon's manufacture-on-demand DVD
service in 2008:

How can you cover the assassination, the murder of Tippit, the murder of Oswald and the Warren Report's conclusions in only 29 minutes? - prwhitmey

Canuck,

That running time of 29 minutes shown on the Amazon site is incorrect.
The DVD-R disc contains the complete 2-hour program.

Gary Mack notes that the schedule says they are running only 22
minutes of what was originally a two hour program.

Gary Mack is correct. If The Conspiracy was brilliant enough to
anticipate every possible contingency, such as a throw down bullet at
Parkland Hospital and framing LHO for shooting the President and a DPD
patrol officer, then no amount of theorizing will ever bring them to
justice. Evidently the current US President has been recruited into
this longstanding conspiracy of silence too, so who is left to carry
the ball?

There are a number of things one can hope for, of which conscience
is one. We also have new evidence, which can happen, and newer views
on old evidence. For newer views, see Douglas Horne at:
http://insidethearrb.livejournal.com/

And then for conscience we have the statement of an ex-FBI agent
that was involved in parts of the JFK doings, and he says the FBI
failed miserably in its job, let a criminal go, and even made things
worse intentionally:
http://tinyurl.com/6lnwuqc

Many of the participants in Dallas that day are reaching their end
of life, and may want to tell it like it really happened to unburden
themselves.

We might even consider the statement from E. Howard Hunt, who
couldn't quite bring himself to admit to any crimes, but said he was
ordered to 'observe' at Dealey Plaza during the 'Big Event'. Given
his well-known nefarious functions, that alone should have a bearing
on whether the day was planned ahead by more than one person, since
there was Hunt, and then the person that ordered him to be there,
making at least two.

Given the routine incompetence of the government the conspirators do not
have to be that smart to get away with planting evidence to frame a
suspect. Cops routinely leave behind a cold throwdown pistol at a crime
scenes where they just shot and killed an innocent bystander and it
doesn't even match in caliber or cartridge shells.
Up here we had a system where the detectives would bribe the scientist
to doctor the drugs they seized to get the desired result in quality and
quantity to convict their suspects of the highest possible charges.
4 white cops in the White Knights gang shoot a black homeless man 150
times with 6 different guns and the incident is listed as an accidental
discharge while cleaning his revolver.
The conspiracy did not anticipate that Oswald's rifle would jam.
Neither did the OAS at Petit Clamart.
Neither did the CIA when they sent Saddam Hussein on his first
assassination assignment.

Isn't that why they call them deathbed confessions? Remember who wrote a
book called "Write It When I'm Gone"?

And why do people give oral histories which can not be read until after
they they are dead? Why does Caroline stipulate the the WH recordings can
not be released until after her grandchildren are dead. Could it be that
recording where JFK said, "Tell Marilyn that I can't talk to her right
now. I'm in the middle of a meeting."

I don't believe anyone ordered Hunt to be there. They asked him if he
wanted to volunteer to be part of the plot. It was not an authorized CIA
operation like the Castro plots.

If we're in the realm of what we believe, I'm more inclined to say
that Hunt would have expected money, and wouldn't show up at any
operation unless he was paid and told he was assigned the job. But
even if asked to volunteer, we have more than one 'conspirator'.

As a CIA officer was he on salary or paid by the mission?

Chris,

E Howard Hunt was an entertaining fiction writer of spy novels, the
American counterpart of Ian Fleming. Hunt was also a professional
disinformation specialist for the CIA. He detested LBJ and Cord Meyer for
opposite reasons. He considered LBJ a boorish lout and Cord Meyer a
spoiled rich kid undeserving of his office in the CIA. Hunt loathed both
of them. Therefore one must be careful in evaluating the story Hunt
concocted for the benefit of his son St John Hunt. Most likely this whole
concoction was to provide St John with something of value as a legacy and
Hunt's going away present to besmirch the reputation of LBJ and Meyer.
He obviously borrowed from the TV special "The Men Who Killed Kennedy"
documentary by Nigel Turner.

It may be several enemies were plotting to kill JFK but a lone dissident
beat them to it. This is what one person connected to organized crime in
Dallas claimed happened. Just because LHO acted on his own doesn't mean
nobody else wanted to take out JFK. It could be that LHO had connections
to the CIA and possibly the FBI. In fact he may have been spying on the
CIA for the FBI, and even possible he was keeping the KGB informed of his
activities as well. Given the fact LHO was a dreamer with a chip on his
shoulder, a broken marriage, and an infatuation with Marxism, it is
possible he went solo on a mission to go out in a blaze of glory by
ambushing the Leader of the Free World.

No. Revenge for being marginalize by his former colleagues. But there is
still a big kernel of truth to his story.
