And we can't forget Oliver Stone's next film...JFK Jr.
A scene from it:
(To be named): So this "Magic SAM"...
Garrison Jr.: Yes. It was the one that hit his airplane.
(To be named): The one Bin Laden fired, you mean...
Garrison Jr.: No, he was innocent. Set up by the government so they could capture him. Ted Kennedy fired the SAM from Martha's Vineyard. Part of a government plot. A new stealth YF-22 was following JFK Jr.'s Piper aircraft, ready to shoot it down if necessary, as evidenced by this video, the George Zamboni film, taken from his fishing boat...

Don't worry, I won't spoil the rest.

The truth, of course, was more complicated than the fiction, as that hardest of hard hitting news sources pointed out:

KENNEDY SLAIN BY CIA, MAFIA, CASTRO, LBJ, TEAMSTERS, FREEMASONS
President Shot 129 Times from 43 Different Angles

I don't even have to click on the link. It's the Onion! I love that book, Our Dumb Century, and I love their newspaper! And it's published in my state, Wisconsin (woo-hoo!) soI always pick up a free copy at Barnes and Noble.

Another excerpt from that article goes something like this:

Unfortunately, night club owner Jack Ruby shot and killed all 43 shooters before any could testify.

I'd tend to refute any suggestion that LBJ had anything to do with it. . . Sure, he benefitted, but he hardly behaved in the way those who might have wanted to put him in office would like. . .

Well, he wanted to stay in Vietnam, and JFK didn't, sooo...
Anywat, this may not have anything to do with the assassination, but after that famous photograph of LBJ being sworn in on AF1, there is a picture of Texas Represnative Albert Thomas winking at LBJ, who is looking at him. Anyone know of a link to it?

*has plenty of pictures where people have one or two eyes closed*

That of course doesn't mean they conspired to assassinate Kennedy...

LBJ was a very good president who got mired in the Vietnam War. His decision not to run for a second term must have sent a message to the public. "If the powerful are being destroyed by this war, what kind of mess have we got ourselves into?"

For one of the very few times in its history, Star Trek was prophetic. In the episode "Assignment: Earth", Spock says there are two public figures killed in 1968. (I have forgotten how to spell the "A" word.) In that terrible year, MLK Jr. and RFK were gunned down.

I don't make light of JFK's death. His death traumatized a nation and marked the beginning of the second civil war in America.

I didn't start this topic to make light of his death. One of our greatest preisdents died that day, and I was just expressing my thoughts that the government killed him. It was depressing, as with Waco, but the evidence says the government wanted to stay in Vietnam.
And if one day, I found out it was, with no doubt, Oswald, then I'll be wrong. Everyone can say it to me.
But right now, I belive there was a conpiracy that day in Texas.
Oh, it's a-s-s-a-s-s-i-n-a-t-e-d.

C'mon...we all KNOW who killed Kennedy. It's just that no one has the balls to actually SAY it.

History Channel did a series on this. The last episode featured a man who has testified in over 200 cases, by taking film of the event, using a computer to determine what angles are involved. In this case, he said all three shots came from in front. Two from storm drains, below the street, and one from a drain near the grassy knole/knowl. (How ever it's spelled.)

The same person who told him little JFK Jr. did it.
