There's an old saying: never say never. Well, this has been a strange
and heady couple years with regard to literature in the JFK
assassination case. After being a fervent believer in a conspiracy in
President John F. Kennedy's death (from about the age of 12 to 41!),
the Spring of 2007 yielded the Oswald-did-it-alone masterpiece
"Reclaiming History" by the highly respected author and former
prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi that, quite literally, made my world
upside down and had me reassess everything I knew (or thought I knew)
about JFK's murder. Result? While I still believed there mere multiple
conspiracies (plural) to kill Kennedy, and that (speaking as the
leading civilian Secret Service authority) the Secret Service was
grossly negligent on 11/22/63 in Dallas, at the end of the day, Oswald
beat everyone to the punch, so to speak; for all intents and purposes,
that solved it for me, albeit with a great deal of discomfort.
Then came ANOTHER masterpiece of even greater length (spread over 5
volumes) that, once again, turned my world upside down (some would
say, right side up)!
Douglas P. Horne, the author of this latest masterpiece, "Inside The
Assassination Records Review Board," has achieved a literary feat
worthy of a Pulitzer Prize. His 5 volume study (5 books in one, so to
speak) reads almost like the Defense's side of the case; the perfect
answer to the Prosecution's ("Reclaiming Historty") masterful plea to
the bench. I am amazed and highly impressed with the book as both a
very inspired, well put together piece of art (it's a great read!) AND
for the substance--and length---of the (counter) argument. While Vince
Bugliosi did the seeming impossible back in 2007 (convincing me,
however begrudgingly, that Oswald acted alone, despite others who
wished JFK ill), Douglas P. Horne has turned around and performed HIS
own version of the impossible: convincing me I was WRONG in 2007---a
delightful, soul searching, slightly embarassing, and honest
appraisal. After all, it is somewhat painful, as a seasoned researcher
with a "stake" in the case, to admit he was in error...twice!
Bugliosi's book cleans up the "junk" in the case and presents the best
case for Oswald acting alone; STILL a terrific book (THE best Oswald-
did-it book that will ever be written---infinitely better than Gerald
Posner's "Case Closed" or the insufficient Warren Report). That said,
Douglas P. Horne's masterwork trumps "Reclaiming History" and presents
the best nuts-and-bolts-and-more case for conspiracy I ever thought
possible, circa 2009 and post-Bugliosi. While I have sung the praises
for many books over the years, no other book (other than David
McCullough's triumphant "Truman") has moved me to the point where I
would recommend the volume achieving the vaunted Pulitzer Prize...yes,
I am THAT impressed with Horne's years of research and insider work on
the case. Jim Douglass excellent volume "JFK and the Unspeakable"
serves almost as a companion volume---the "warm-up act"---to Horne's
masterwork.
The MEDICAL evidence is the keystone to the case, bar none. With this
firmly in mind, Horne, as a respected insider into the U.S.
Government's final investigation into JFK's assassination in the mid
to late 1990's, has laid out the best case for conspiracy I have ever
read, especially at this late juncture (and where my thinking on the
case was at not long before his 5 volume study appeared). I won't
spoil things by revealing anything specific in this review (sorry!). I
will just say this: get these books asap---you will find yourself
(like myself) reading them and refering to them many times over.
I recently admonished people in the research community (of which I am
one) to, qote, "get a life" (shades of Willia Shatner, huh?). Well,
disregard that bit of advice: instead, GET DOUGLAS P. HORNE'S
BOOKS...NOW! 5 PLUS STARS; THE HIGHEST RATING HUMANLY POSSIBLE.
Vince Palamara
5 star Amazon.Com reviews (should be posted there soon)
Cut the crap Vinny , the hour is getting too late for yer pole sitting
non-sense....
You're no more a honest book reviewer than you are "leading civilian
Secret Service authority" .....
When you can't figure out there was no conspiracy after 46 years of
hoaxing bullshit you otta retire to a monastery and start knitting for
yer old age ....
You're disgusting !
tl
Thank you, Cdddraftsman.
Vince Palamara is beginning to get very boring.
One day he will tell you something, the next day something else, and be
prepared for another complete reversal on his part sooner that you can
expect...
The truth is : Vince Palamara doesn't know what to think. What matters to
him is that people remember his name ! That's all.
He has recently read a book by someone (Horne) who claims the Zapruder film
was altered (what nonsense, what crap !), and he says he saw the light ????
Give me a break !
To me, Palamara is now to be put in the same group as the Liftons, Fetzers,
Mantiks and Grodens : useless people who can do nothing but waste their time
and spread falsehoods.
How sad !

Laz, ya really have to stop beating around da bush..... LMAO!

And not only that, Vince Palamara just read a book (Doug Horne's) that
claims that JFK's body was altered by DR. HUMES AND DR. BOSWELL AT
BETHESDA NAVAL CENTER PRIOR TO KENNEDY'S AUTOPSY!
And Palamara just read a book (Horne's) that insists that there were
TWO BRAINS examined by the pathologists in November 1963, with one of
these brains being JFK's real brain and the other one being a phony
brain of some kind that--get this!--WAS WAY TOO BIG TO EVEN BE JOHN F.
KENNEDY'S REAL BRAIN!
Talk about BRAINless idiots for plotters!
And that is the kind of pro-conspiracy nonsense that Mr. Palamara
evidently finds convincing.
And the kicker is: Palamara is still calling Vincent Bugliosi's book a
"masterpiece" too -- at the same time that he's calling Doug Horne's
conspiracy-filled tome worthy of winning a Pulitzer Prize!!
Touting BOTH Bugliosi's book and Horne's book as being of worthy of
equal praise is pretty much the same thing as saying that the person
engaging in such praise for those two things (Vince Palamara) firmly
and genuinely believes that the sun is both hot AND cold.
Allow me to repeat my earlier comments about Vincent Michael Palamara:
"In order to believe in ANY of the conspiracy-tinged nonsense
that Douglas Horne believes in, a person must AUTOMATICALLY disbelieve
the things that Vincent T. Bugliosi believes in. ....
"Either Lee Oswald killed Kennedy alone (as Bugliosi posits) or
he didn't (as Horne posits). You cannot believe that BOTH Bugliosi's
and Horne's versions of the JFK story are true. They are like water
and oil. They cannot co-exist. ....
"In short, it appears that Vince Palamara's opinions regarding
the John F. Kennedy murder case are about as steady as the colors of a
chameleon." -- DVP; December 16, 2009

Indeed, to even begin to think that Humes (and Boswell) altered JFK's body
before the autopsy .... is way, way TOO MUCH.
It's so silly that only a handful of conspiracy theorists (and people who
swim haphazardly in the conspiracy lake, like Palamara) can defend that
idea.
