ORIGINAL: Real0ne the only real investigation that has been done on this so far is from private parties, all the government did was sweep everything under the table which of course is criminal negligence and spoliation of evidence. Give it up man, they don't care, the American people don't care. A friend of mine, very smart, Vietnam war protester and all around skeptic about our govt., now a college professor, conceded to me in the 70's that yes, the CIA took out Kennedy, the FBI allowed it...and he didn't care. (BTW...Army intelligence) I finally heard a man (a friend [?] I thought) tell me last year..."They ought to drag that 'N' out of the white house and...shoot his black ass." The last honest president. Here With this and executive order 11110...the straw(s) that as they say...broke the camel's back. (exec. order took fed. reserve notes out of circulation replaced by silver cert.) America is gone. This isn't the country that relatives fought for in WWII and not that long from now, won't even be the country it is today. For sports, celebrity worship, regressing standard of living, partisan political bullshit...we let it all slip away. As I've said and increasingly believe, the youngest of today, will be...spitting on our graves. Here's why..... In response to a great article about how men get older but don't grow up. How the patriarchs have lost their way...philanderers, liars, cheaters, scoundrels, cool bad-boy dominance wholly without substance, monstrosities inseparable from their perceived charisma. Where were the heroes, the Huck Finns to find and have real value and at least something...someone to keep us there ? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ As we mark the 100-year anniversary of The Great War, perhaps we should consider "a crisis of authority" not the death-knell of society but rather the culmination of the enlightenment. The political, moral and social authorities of the 20th century marched millions of Huck Finns off to die. And during brief periods of peacetime, the adults in the room actively discouraged every major social movement towards racial, sexual or economic equality. Why would a generation raised in the shadow of the 20th century strive to become the very 'moms' and 'dads' whose authority created the problems we are tasked with solving? Who can blame us for preferring a juvenile, adventure-filled "Odyssey" after witnessing a century of mature, authoritative and blood-soaked "Iliads"? History has and will continue to refute man's inevitable ascendancy. We stagnate in a cesspool, of pride, greed, power and corruption no less and in fact as much or more, as any of our predecessors.
