Anyone easily offended would best avoid my work.
I can vividly recall Dominican Sister Catherine of Siena interrupting Friday class to herd us over to St. Thomas Church for impromptu prayer. Was school done for the week then? That I don't know, but it's hard to imagine anyone capable of focusing on lessons amid 11/22/1963 afternoon's tragedy.
Delivering that Saturday's Chicago newspapers was my sad job, but my customers, most of whom I never met, were very generous that Christmas. On Sunday, I sat in our basement alone, while in custody at Dallas police headquarters garage, the self-proclaimed patsy, Lee Oswald, was shot on live TV. I believe I then shouted upstairs, "They shot Oswald!": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5khMFFKslw
The gunman later claimed he did it to spare Mrs. Kennedy the ordeal of a trial. Jack Leon Ruby (nee Jacob Leon Rubenstein) was a Chicago-Dallas mobster Jew, heavily involved in illegal gambling, narcotics, and prostitution, died of cancer and pulmonary embolism at Parkland Memorial Hospital (where JFK & LHO were both pronounced dead), and is buried in Norridge IL.: https://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=911
The 1960 presidential election was the 1st in which I took an interest, probably cuz Kennedy was a Catholic, but Nixon-Lodge materials seemed more memorable than Kennedy-Johnson. Election night TV coverage was exciting with gee-whiz computer tallying by RCA's 501 and perhaps 1st ever national election projections in full living black and white. Except at the start, Kennedy had an early lead, but Nixon was steadily closing the gap by the time I went to bed.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XtOuIqHi8ns
I felt inspired by JFK's inauguration and moon speeches.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEC1C4p0k3E and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuW4oGKzVKc
In early 1961, 2 of what I consider critically important presidential speeches were delivered. The 1st was a 1/17 farewell address by President Eisenhower, in which he warned of dangers from an unrestrained military industrial complex, and the 2nd was JFK's 4/27 speech about secrecy in a free and open society to ANPA.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWiIYW_fBfY and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdMbmdFOvTs
We had a copy of Vaughn Meader's 1962 comedy record album The First Family and I memorized all the audio skits. Unlike all of our President Scrooges, JFK could appreciate a joke.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xwu8S6Ekx9w
I've also read a few books by and about JFK, including Profiles in Courage, and intend to read more. An updated list is available by request.
Its original mission was, "To promote world peace and friendship through a Peace Corps, which shall make available to interested countries and areas men and women of the United States qualified for service abroad and willing to serve, under conditions of hardship if necessary, to help the peoples of such countries and areas in meeting their needs for trained manpower." When did JFK's Peace Corps become a CIA front, like journalists? It appears decidedly nixonian and bushy, but likely began with LBJ. With only 44 men as President, we've already had 2 Adamses, 2 Harrisons, 2 Roosevelts, 2 Johnsons, and 2 Bushes. If we get another Bush, Trump, or Clinton, I'm moving to the Southern Hemisphere.
Did this speech on prospects for practical, attainable, just, and genuine peace turn the military establishment against JFK?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_cPQiLBrUA
Or was it this horribly misguided Zionist experiment in Palestine? JFK pressured Israeli leaders not to breed weapons-grade nuclear materials at their Dimona reactor, but they did it anyway, cuz world peace means nothing to them, only their own supremacy, masked in all manner of lies and deception.: https://nsarchive2.gwu.edu/nukevault/ebb547-Kennedy-Dimona-and-the-Nuclear-Proliferation-Problem-1961-1962/
Mordechai Vanunu, peace activist and former technician at Dimona, exposed its covert purpose, revealed details of Israel's nuclear weapons program to the British press in 1986, and suffered the wrath of his country.: http://www.vanunu.com/, https://www.democracynow.org/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&query=vanunu, and https://www.theguardian.com/world/mordechai-vanunu
Zionist Israel, like Nazism, is a global cancer spreading until eradicated or it destroys its host.: https://www.veteranstoday.com/2016/05/09/israeli-general-yair-golan-israel-is-acting-like-nazis/ and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Other_Side:_The_Secret_Relationship_Between_Nazism_and_Zionism
It now appears that 3 future Republican presidents were all seen in Dallas that fateful day, though suspiciously 2 won't admit it.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkeCQWk9ID8, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRQkDGdHmd0, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZYKlwI_oDQM, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FqWu3awhPhw
Nixon's Freudian slip about 2 rights not making a wrong is quite telling, while commenting on murders of JFK and LHO.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XyoyNF2MbIY
Old Opium "Poppy" Bush is hiding the most secrets.: http://jfkmurdersolved.com/bush.htm, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-NlJQJUUqR4, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wap7YX1OeUs, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dN1y6MhfAWk
Cleverly disguised as a mild-mannered, bumbling, forgetful, bold, frisky friend of all ex-Presidents, and poster boy for disaster relief, serial killer/drug lord Poppy Magog Bush goes unpunished for his heinous crimes.
This GHWB quote, apparently about Iran-Contra, could apply to other Bush crimes, ""If the people were to ever find out what we have done, we would be chased down the streets and lynched." President George H.W. Bush, quoted by Sarah McClendon (White House Reporter) in her June 1992 Newsletter."
Read your lips? No thanks, Bonesman Magog Bush, I read your bloody fingerprints.
Republicans are a party of leeches and bankers, "but I repeat myself", as Mark Twain once said. A bunch of mini-Ronald Reagans, vastly outwitted by academics, they now hone their act for illiterates, the uneducated, myriad religious wrong, and immigrants, while not hiding utter contempt for their base, excepting, of course, the uber wealthy.

By allowing the Warren Commission Report whitewash and cover-up to stand uncontested, we are complicit in the crimes, and encourage the brutes who committed them to strike again, as they did on 9/11/2001 and with an even worse flawed 9-11 Commission Report, substituting fascist fraud for fundamental freedoms.
I can recall a time when our leaders seemed trustworthy, not hypocritical, when national politics was honorable, not hell-bent on destroying opponents, and when American values stood for something more than convenient talking points spin. I want to see an America that's a leader inspiring imitation, not a belligerent bully dictating terms across the globe. Our current nutless nut case fruitcake Comb-over in Chief appears too damned stupid to be conniving, but so did Dubya. And the Oscar for Reptard goes to...
My peaceful Muslim neighbors worry me not. It's ignorant Christian and Jewish terrorist armed camps that pose our real threats.
Some religious practitioners insist God can't be known logically, but by faith alone. Really? Then what's their flawed watchmaker argument all about? Why do they try to prove the unproveable with pseudo-science and ridiculous 'creationist museums'? How can the greatest divine gift to all mankind be unable to find its maker? Could it be that those who find validity in all religions are wrong? Despite his own religious persuasions, what would Mr. Spock say? Surely blind faith alone can't reach God, cuz that's too perfect, the blind leading the blind. Phony 'Christians' say, "Get thee behind me, Satan!", where he can jam his damned bible up their asses.
You may not agree with some or all of my stated positions, but that's fine with me. Since you've read this far, you are entitled to your opinion and have every right to be wrong. ;^J Humorless fascist Führer Von Drumpf insists only his sloppy, uninformed, and frankly ignoramus positions matter. Will he drag us all through world war hell? He'll be eliminated when his purpose is fulfilled. Having amassed so many enemies, it'll again be hard to ID the real perpetrators, yet my hunch tells me it's the Chinese this time, but I could be wrorrrrrr.: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbMKjLe-RFA, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkqgDoo_eZE, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwkU8-d1gIk
Some JFK quotations to muse upon:
“If by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people-their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights and their civil liberties-someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal", then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.””
“The rights of every man are diminished when the rights of one man are threatened.”
“The Chinese use two brush strokes to write the word 'crisis.' One brush stroke stands for danger; the other for opportunity. In a crisis, be aware of the danger--but recognize the opportunity.”
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."
“The great enemy of truth is very often not the lie--deliberate, contrived and dishonest--but the myth--persistent, persuasive and unrealistic. Too often we hold fast to the cliches of our forebears. We subject all facts to a prefabricated set of interpretations. We enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”
“There is nothing in the record of the past two years when both Houses of Congress have been controlled by the Republican Party which can lead any person to believe that those promises will be fulfilled in the future. They follow the Hitler line - no matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses will regard it as truth.”
“Forgive your enemies, but never forget their names.”
“I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute - where no Catholic prelate would tell the President (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote - where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference - and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the President who might appoint him or the people who might elect him. I believe in an America that is officially neither Catholic, Protestant nor Jewish - where no public official either requests or accepts instructions on public policy from the Pope, the National Council of Churches or any other ecclesiastical source - where no religious body seeks to impose its will directly or indirectly upon the general populace or the public acts of its officials - and where religious liberty is so indivisible that an act against one church is treated as an act against all.”
