For those of us old enough to remember that fateful day in November, 1963, the memories when prodded even slightly, become vivid again..

I was in school when news came over the loud speaker that President Kennedy had been shot. The hallways and classrooms became eerily quiet and after dismissal, the walk home produced a silence which was deafening.

The hours and days that followed were some of the saddest I remember…Walter Cronkite with tears announcing the President had died..the pictures of the widowed (former) First Lady at the swearing in of Lyndon Johnson, the solemn funeral and the final salute to his father from a very young “John-John.”

Lee Harvey Oswald..who had been accused of taking the life of our President and Jack Ruby who then took his as we watched in horror. Questions, unanswered to this day died when Oswald took his last breath.

Hearings began in Congress, not many of which meant much to a nation in shock..remember Senator Specters “Magic Bulllet Theory”? It seemed to make no difference, all we knew was that someone had been taken from us in an instant that we could never replace.

Funny how you can put these facts and events in the subconscious until you come across an article like this.

JFK Lone Gunman Theory Flawed

New research finds flaws in the evidence used to implicate lone gunman Lee Harvey Oswald in the 1963 assassination of President John F. Kennedy.

The findings are based on updated bullet analysis techniques and throw a wrench in the case-clinching evidence previously cited by experts to rule out a second assassin.

“By properly reanalyzing the bullet fragments, our nation has a chance to shatter a myth about the JFK assassination,” said study team member Cliff Spiegelman, a statistician at Texas A&M and an expert in the analysis of lead in bullets.

Many scientific and conspiracy theories have been tested through the years on this subject and perhaps in the end this one will have merit. Will it make any difference to those of us who remember? The images and events will always remain and maybe, just maybe, the mystery keeps this part of history alive.

She doesn’t appear to allow anyone else to speak a complete thought and is so puffed up with herself she actually seems to believe the nutty things she’s saying.

I don’t watch the show so if someone does and can tell me she does allow others to speak without interruption and preaching her doctrine of conspiracy theories please let me know.
