All You Zombies
Amidst Obama mania, a small news item came and went last week.
Ironically, it had to do with the assasination of the man many are comparing Obama to - President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.
Documents reportedly hidden away in the darkness of a court-house safe were ordered to see the light of day by Dallas County District Attorney Craig Watkins.
While many of the items in the safe have yet to be released, one tantalizing piece was purported dialogue between alleged long assasin Lee Harvey Oswald and his killer, Jack Ruby.
It went down about seven weeks prior to the assasination, according to reports, like this:
Ruby meets Oswald in his nightclub, the cheesey Carousel Club, and he tells Oswald that the "boys in Chicago" want to get rid of JFK's brother, Bobby, who was the U.S. Attorney General with an axe to grind against the same mob that help JFK get elected.
Oswald then says: "There's a way to get rid of him without killing him."
Ruby: "How's that?"
Oswald: "I can shoot his brother."
They then talk about logistics and blood money for the chore and Oswald innocently asks Ruby if he is mobbed-up.
Ruby: "You're asking too many questions."
Ruby then warns Oswald of the life-or-death ramifications of turning rat if things go wrong.
Even a firm believer in a conspiracy like myself finds this conversation silly and rather unlikely to have occured.
It is believed that the papers belong to former Dallas DA Henry Wade, who was believed to have been toying with the idea of a screenplay about the assasination.
So, while the dialogue is probably the product of a poor writer, the fact that Wade believed there was a connection between Ruby and Oswald is high-caloried food for thought.
Was Wade culling together bits and pieces of conversations he had behind closed doors with Oswald and Ruby and trying to lay them out in a crude script?
Just as interesting is the RFK angle.
I recently watched a show on The Discovery Channel wherein several independent experts analyzing a tape recording of his 1968 assasination that was unwittingly recorded by a foreign journalist and deemed unusable by the FBI.
Each expert determined that more than eight shots were fired, with one having as many as 13 going off. RFK's accused assasin, Sirhan Sirhan, only had an 8-shot revolver on him.
Hmmmmmm ....

... and the Secret Service told the Dallas police to stop some of the gun checks that were going on at an Obama rally in Dallas on Thursday. Does somebody want another JFK/RFK assassination? Or was this just plain stupidity?
PS The organized crime angle of the JFK assassination has always been there.
I don't think Mr. Glantz was doubting that the organized crime angle has always been there. He found it intriguing, as do I, that a DA in the city where it happened seems have bought into this angle to such an extent that he began jotting down script ideas based on this notion.
Obama will be taking his life into his hands, no ifs, and or buts. This noose-hanging crap is only the beginning of widening the great divide we can blame on Bush.
Anybody else think the "movie script" explanation might be disinformation put out by the powers that be to defuse the impact of this information?
