MY LATEST LETTER-TO-THE-EDITOR OF THE MORNING CALL (OF LEHIGH VALLEY, PA):
Dear Editor:
I could never vote for Pat Toomey because he is way too far to the right – and, if elected, he would try his best to put us right back into the trouble we had when George W. Bush was president.
I could never vote for the opportunistic Senator Arlen Specter because he invented the extraordinarily lame Magic Bullet Theory in order to justify the Warren Commission-sanctioned support of the narrow-minded lone-nut assassination theory in the JFK Assassination.
Thank God Congressman Joe Sestak is running for the Democratic nomination for US Senate from PA this Tuesday!
Despite my undying support for President Barack Obama, I will be voting for Joe Sestak on May 18. He is a real Democrat who can beat Pat Toomey in November and who can be counted on to vote for the continued success in recovering from the Bush years that President Obama has initiated!

FRIENDS:
I AM READING VINCENT BUGLIOSI'S BOOK,
"RECLAIMING HISTORY". IT IS THE WARREN COMMISSION REVISITED.
THE REASON I AM READING IT IS: ACTORS TOM HANKS AND BILL PAXTON BOUGHT THE RIGHTS TO THE BOOK IN ORDER TO FILM A 10-PART SERIES ON HBO. THEY MUST BE CONVINCED OTHERWISE!
I HOPE TO FINISH READING THE 1600 PAGE BOOK AND THEN WRITE THE SONG THAT WILL CONVINCE THEM TO ABANDON THE PROJECT - AND FILM JAMES W. DOUGLASS' "JFK AND THE UNSPEAKABLE" INSTEAD!
I HAVE ALREADY GONE TO GUY AND GRACE'S PLACE TO BEGIN THE NEW SONG (THIRD NEW SONG IN ONE MONTH!)!

MY LATEST FACEBOOK ENTRY:
Joined a brand new group: Operation Educate Tom Hanks. Hanks and HBO are planning to produce a false recreation of history - based on a bogus book, "Reclaiming History" by Vincent Bugliosi. As anyone who has read any serious books and/or done any real research on the JFK Assassination knows, the book is based on CIA disinformation and should not be fed to the public as facts. Please help persuade them to drop the project.
Thank you,

MY FACEBOOK ENTRY TO A VERY NICE, VERY LIBERAL WOMAN WHO HAS ABANDONED PRESIDENT OBAMA - REGARDING HIS APPEARANCE IN FRONT OF THE REPUBLICAN HOUSE:
Terri,
Whether the message was for the viewers at home or the Republicans, the message was on the money:
"if you paint me as a Dirty Stinking Commie who wants to do nothing but raise taxes and turn this country into another USSR, there is no way you Republicans can vote on anything I propose without taking a chance that you will lose your seat to somone who is even further to the right than you are - and if you paint yourself into that corner, we will get nothing done for the American people".
"Getting done for the American people" could have included your beloved single-payer issue if so many people weren't afraid of losing their seats as a result of the backlash (due to the right wing "un-American, commie BS" that he is referring to) that would have resulted for many of the people in Washington who want to keep their jobs.
As for your pleading/leading point: it is a classic case of inclusion vs exclusion.
I prefer a leader who is someone who includes everyone and agrees to disagree on some particular points but works on the places where they can agree and they get something done - rather than what we just had for the past eight years: someone who arrogantly tells everyone "it is my way or the highway - you are with us or you are unpatriotic" - and gets nothing done due to the resulting gridlock.
I know you are passionate about your cause and you are bitter as a result of not getting what we all hoped would happen immediately, but this is how our system works.
The people in Washington are politicians and they are going to vote the way that gets them re-elected. The left is going to vote left and the right is going to vote right - and all Obama is trying to do is get them to see the parts where they can all agree and get something done - so he gets re-elected!
Believe me, you are going to be sorry - at least most of us are - when your far left wing allows Jeb Bush into the White House in 2012 just because Obama couldn't get things just right fast enough to suit you.
Or maybe you won't be sorry. Maybe the far left prefers to have someone more ignorant, more arrogant, and further to the right - that way you can bash more easily (and you can play the victim more convincingly) - it is easier and definitely not as much real work. But it is playing into the far right's hands, isn't it?

SOME OF MY RECENT FACEBOOK ENTRIES CONCERNING THE ASSASSINATION OF JFK:
1. MY ANSWER TO SOMEONE WHO ASKED ABOUT "re: JFK's supposed-anti-CIA attitude":
JFK fired Director Allen Dulles and Dulles' assistant, Charles Cabell, in the aftermath of the Bay of Pigs fiasco. JFK blamed Dulles for trying to back him into a corner. The CIA blamed JFK for not giving air support. Cabell called JFK a "traitor" after the dismissals. Cabell's brother, Earle, was Mayor of Dallas at the time of the assassination 2 1/2 years later. Dulles was placed on the Warren Commission by LBJ to insure "Lone Nut Oswald" complicity.
The rest of the time between the Bay of Pigs and the assassination, there was the Cuban Missile Crisis - where, instead of attacking, Kennedy secretly agreed to pull our missiles out of Turkey in exchange for USSR pulling their missiles out of Cuba; and the Berlin Wall - where, instead of attacking, Kennedy gave a speech and provided an airlift.
In addition, just days prior to the assassination, JFK signed the paperwork in order to begin the withdrawal of the CIA "advisors" out of Vietnam.
There was nothing JFK did that pleased the CIA - or the people who run the CIA (CFR, Skull & Bones, Trilateral Commission, Bush family, pick one).
That is why he was killed.
2. MY RESPONSE TO A CIA DEFENDER/JFK ASSASSINATION CONSPIRACY DOUBTER:
The CIA removed and/or killed many heads of state of foreign countries over the years prior to the JFK assassination. That is a fact.
Dulles and Cabell - along with E. Howard Hunt, Frank Sturgis, George H.W.Bush and the rest of the CIA operatives working to remove and/or kill Castro were very unhappy that Kennedy refused to give air support during the CIA-sponsored Bay of Pigs invasion. That is another fact.
Dulles and Cabell were fired as a result of the Bay of Pigs egg on JFK's face. Fact.
Cabell called JFK "a traitor" after the firing. Fact.
Cabell's brother was the Mayor of Dallas when the motorcade route was changed. As a result of the route change, the motorcade drove into the kill zone at 11 mph. Fact.
Dulles was placed on the Warren Commission by LBJ for a reason. Dulles ramrodded the thought through the commission that our country only has lone nut assassins. He told the members that this is not a banana republic and we don't have assassination plots. Fact.
I don't care how many CIA operatives you have spoken to over the past 25 years. Their words do not change the facts. Some of them may have liked them. I am sure a few of them did. But Dulles, Cabell, Hunt, Sturgis, Bush, and many others did not.
What makes you think your CIA operatives were telling the truth? Do you honestly think even a small percentage of the CIA operatives liked JFK despite his anti-CIA actions (no air support during Bay of Pigs; closing down the CIA/Cuban refugee training camps down south; a secret agreement with USSR instead of an attack during the Missile Crisis; a speech and an airlift instead of an attack when the Berlin Wall was built; pulling the CIA out of Vietnam before the war could get started)? What did they say they liked about him? His personality? They certainly did not like his politics.
If the president was to be killed, the CIA was the perfect agency to carry out such a plan. That is what they do for a living. And Kennedy threatened to splinter them into a thousand pieces. It was a matter of their survival!
I HAVE FOUND FACEBOOK TO BE A GREAT PLACE TO FIND LIKE-MINDED AND UNLIKE-MINDED PEOPLE, WITH WHOM I ENJOY DISCUSSING SUBJECTS THAT I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT!

I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
(ET2BRUTE/SEGROVES)
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
HAD A WIFE WITH BLUE HAIR
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
THEN I COULD PRETEND TO CARE
ABOUT THE PEOPLE OF THE COUNTRY
AND THE PEOPLE OF THE WORLD
EVERY CHILD I LEFT BEHIND
EVERY BOY AND EVERY GIRL
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
TURNING GREEN INTO BROWN
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
TURNING ENVIRONMENTS UPSIDE DOWN
I’D RUIN THE WATER IN THE RIVERS
AND THE QUALITY OF THE AIR
THEN I’D SAY I PASSED A BILL
TO PRETEND I REALLY CARE
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
TURNING BROWN BACK INTO GREEN
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
SO MUCH MONEY I’D BE OBSCENE
CHANGING GLOBAL WARMING
INTO “CLIMATE CONTROL”
ALLOWING MORE CRAP IN THE AIR
AND OIL MEN TO BUY MY SOUL
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
TURNING BLACK INK INTO RED
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
WOULDN’T MATTER ONE THING I SAID
I’D HAVE ALL OF MY BACKERS
INTERPRET WHAT I MEANT
I’D HAVE THEM PUT A SPIN ON MY WORDS
AND HOW THE MONEY WAS SPENT
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
REDUCE EVERYTHING TO BLACK AND WHITE
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
WOULDN’T CARE WHAT WAS WRONG OR RIGHT
IF ANYONE DISAGREED WITH ME
I’D TELL THEM THEY WERE IDIOTIC
IF THAT DIDN’T SEEM TO DO THE TRICK
THEY MUST BE UNPATRIOTIC
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
BUT NEVER GET OLD AND GRAY
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
YOUNG AND HEALTHY IS HOW I’D STAY
WE’D KILL SOCIAL SECURITY
AND RUIN MEDICARE
SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST
LIFE JUST ISN’T FAIR
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
A REPUBLICAN WITH BLUE EYES
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
WHERE EVERYONE BELIEVES BIG LIES
BIG LIES TO FOOL THE POOR
BIG LIES REWARD THE RICH
IF I WAS A REPUBLICAN
I’D BE A SON OF A BITCH
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
WHERE EVERYONE IS RICH AND WHITE
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
THEN I COULD SEE THE LIGHT
THE LIGHT THAT KEEPS ME SAFE AT HOME
WITH OUR BLOOD-FOR-OIL WARS
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
‘CAUSE THINKING CAN BE SUCH A CHORE
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
DON’T WANT TO DO NO THINKING NO MORE
I WISH I WAS A REPUBLICAN
‘CAUSE THINKING CAN BE SUCH A CHORE (CHORUS)

“Of course the people don't want war ... that is understood. But voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.”

MY LATEST FACEBOOK ENTRY:
George H. W. Bush: the most evil man in America!
The first time I realized George H. W. Bush was involved in the JFK Assassination was when I read Mark Lane's book "Plausible Denial" about twenty years ago. Since that time I have watched him with that in mind.
As mentioned in the Lane book, it is obvious Bush was in the CIA prior to the assassination (Operation Zapata - his oil company was named Zapata Oil - and the boats used to attack Cuba during Operation Zapata were named Barbara and Houston, etc).
What has amazed me is how, over the years, he has been able to continue to replace the Kennedy Era with the Bush Era - and flaunt it - and dare anyone to call him on it!
I forget, was Poppy's name and phone number in the wallet of Oswald or Ruby? Or both? Oh no, it was just Oswald's CIA handler, George DeMohrenschildt!
I happened to catch Bush address a bunch of rich, old, oil men on a CSPAN channel years ago - mid-90's - after he had been replaced by Clinton as president - so he thought he could let his guard down (since he didn't know at the time that his asshole son would be running for president a few years later) - and he told a joke at JFK's expense: he said that JFK had addressed a bunch of similar rich, old, oil men when he was president in the early 60's - and while trying to get the oil men to help get the economy moving, said:
"If I weren't president, I would be investing in America!" at which Bush said that his fellow-oil men joked:
"If he weren't president, I would be investing in America, too!"
He and his rich, old, oil friends really got a kick out of that one!
Think: who but a CIA macho man would jump out of a plane every five years - even at 85 years old?
One last quick Bush note: if you noticed, when it was time to convince the American people that Enron CEO "Kenny Boy" Lay was dead (and I do not believe he is), it was George H.W. Bush who attended the funeral in order to "signal" to everyone "not to worry, it had all been taken care of by the Skull & Bones boys". Then, a few months later, a court allowed the Lay family to keep the $400 million that was supposed to be forfeited and go to the Enron employees "because Lay didn't live to appeal his conviction". How convenient!
That is, what I like to call, a typical "Bush-league CIA manuever"!
George H. W. Bush: the most evil man in America! He may be the Devil! If not, he is the closest thing I have ever seen. He and his entire family should all go to hell ASAP!

FYI, WRITTEN BY FORMER PRESIDENT HARRY TRUMAN ONE MONTH TO THE DAY AFTER JFK WAS ASSASSINATED:
The Washington Post
December 22, 1963 - page A11
Harry Truman Writes:
Limit CIA Role
To Intelligence
By Harry S Truman
Copyright, 1963, by Harry S Truman
INDEPENDENCE, MO., Dec. 21 — I think it has become necessary to take another look at the purpose and operations of our Central Intelligence Agency—CIA. At least, I would like to submit here the original reason why I thought it necessary to organize this Agency during my Administration, what I expected it to do and how it was to operate as an arm of the President.
I think it is fairly obvious that by and large a President's performance in office is as effective as the information he has and the information he gets. That is to say, that assuming the President himself possesses a knowledge of our history, a sensitive understanding of our institutions, and an insight into the needs and aspirations of the people, he needs to have available to him the most accurate and up-to-the-minute information on what is going on everywhere in the world, and particularly of the trends and developments in all the danger spots in the contest between East and West. This is an immense task and requires a special kind of an intelligence facility.
Of course, every President has available to him all the information gathered by the many intelligence agencies already in existence. The Departments of State, Defense, Commerce, Interior and others are constantly engaged in extensive information gathering and have done excellent work.
But their collective information reached the President all too frequently in conflicting conclusions. At times, the intelligence reports tended to be slanted to conform to established positions of a given department. This becomes confusing and what's worse, such intelligence is of little use to a President in reaching the right decisions.
Therefore, I decided to set up a special organization charged with the collection of all intelligence reports from every available source, and to have those reports reach me as President without department "treatment" or interpretations.
I wanted and needed the information in its "natural raw" state and in as comprehensive a volume as it was practical for me to make full use of it. But the most important thing about this move was to guard against the chance of intelligence being used to influence or to lead the President into unwise decisions—and I thought it was necessary that the President do his own thinking and evaluating.
Since the responsibility for decision making was his—then he had to be sure that no information is kept from him for whatever reason at the discretion of any one department or agency, or that unpleasant facts be kept from him. There are always those who would want to shield a President from bad news or misjudgments to spare him from being "upset."
For some time I have been disturbed by the way CIA has been diverted from its original assignment. It has become an operational and at times a policy-making arm of the Government. This has led to trouble and may have compounded our difficulties in several explosive areas.
I never had any thought that when I set up the CIA that it would be injected into peacetime cloak and dagger operations. Some of the complications and embarrassment I think we have experienced are in part attributable to the fact that this quiet intelligence arm of the President has been so removed from its intended role that it is being interpreted as a symbol of sinister and mysterious foreign intrigue—and a subject for cold war enemy propaganda.
With all the nonsense put out by Communist propaganda about "Yankee imperialism," "exploitive capitalism," "war-mongering," "monopolists," in their name-calling assault on the West, the last thing we needed was for the CIA to be seized upon as something akin to a subverting influence in the affairs of other people.
I well knew the first temporary director of the CIA, Adm. Souers, and the later permanent directors of the CIA, Gen. Hoyt Vandenberg and Allen Dulles. These were men of the highest character, patriotism and integrity—and I assume this is true of all those who continue in charge.
But there are now some searching questions that need to be answered. I, therefore, would like to see the CIA be restored to its original assignment as the intelligence arm of the President, and that whatever else it can properly perform in that special field—and that its operational duties be terminated or properly used elsewhere.
We have grown up as a nation, respected for our free institutions and for our ability to maintain a free and open society. There is something about the way the CIA has been functioning that is casting a shadow over our historic position and I feel that we need to correct it.

TWO OF MY LATEST FACEBOOK ENTRIES:
Since I have discovered that Tom Hanks and HBO have decided to film Vincent Bugliosi's crap book, "Reclaiming History", I have no respect for either one. Bugliosi's book is garbage and the multi-part series will be another in a relentless series of attempts to chip away at the truth concerning the JFK Assassination! Shame on Tom Hanks for not educating himself on the subject and for (intentionally or unintentionally) helping to spread the old Warren Commission whitewash lies!
The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame announced their latest inductees this past week - and once again they ignored the greatest singer-songwriter of our time: Tom Waits. To include acts like ABBA, Genesis, and The Hollies and not have Tom Waits in there makes the entire process a joke. I for one refuse to recognize the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame as anything but a monument to the middle-of-the-road musician and a popularity contest - until Tom Waits is inducted!

COPY OF THE LETTER I WROTE TO A FRIEND IN ANSWER TO HIS LETTER CONCERNING THE CIA AND CFR INFILTRATION OF THE MAINSTREAM MASS MEDIA:
Carl,
It is always great to hear from you! I met Lisa Pease at the 46th Anniversary of the JFK Assassination in Dallas. I was impressed! She is informed, intelligent …and fun!
As it relates to the JFK Assassination, I believe the CIA media infiltration became apparent to the JFK assassination researcher/casual observer on 11/22/63, when Texas cub reporter Dan Rather stated from Dallas, TX that he saw the Zapruder film and Kennedy’s head went forward - when it actually went back and to the left; continued with the mainstream media’s massive coverage of Gerald Posner’s CIA-inspired book “Case Closed” (in retaliation to the movie “JFK”) in the early ‘90’s; Peter Jennings’ narration of the ridiculous “Oswald did it alone” laser TV show in 2003 - and remains today with every CFR/mainstream media member (name anyone on TV/doesn’t matter how liberal or how conservative: read Chris Matthews’ “Kennedy and Nixon” – the part about the assassination is like an audition for a TV show!) - I believe that everyone of them must pass a litmus test that goes something like this:
“Who killed Kennedy?”
“Oswald killed Kennedy.”
“OK, you can have your own show.”
And now Tom Hanks is going to team up with HBO to produce Vincent Bugliosi’s book!?!? Unbelievable! Bugliosi does next to no real research, except to "procecutor-ize" The Warren Commission Report - and gets an HBO series - while people who have done decades of research get ridiculed by the mainstream media!
Last year, Matthews stated on his show - when the movie “W” was about to be released - (paraphrasing): “based on the movie, ‘JFK’, don’t expect anything that Oliver Stone does to be factual”. At the time, I wrote and told him, “if you are not going to honestly address the JFK assassination in your book, don’t bash Stone for taking the facts out of Jim Marrs’ ‘Crossfire’ and Jim Garrison’s ‘On the Trail of the Assassins’ (two excellent books) for his film, ‘JFK’, asshole!”
It makes me think that the CFR and the CIA might have EVERYONE in the mainstream media on their payroll!
Thank you for sending.
Have a great holiday!
