There are days when I calculate alternative routes to get home from my office just in case something happens to Obama. The Bronx (and most every city in the USA) would erupt like Krakatoa if anything happened to him. I pray daily for his safety and for the safety of his family.
Read this ad and then tell me if anything has really changed over there on the far paranoid right in 46 years.
I wonder if there are just more of the far right paranoids today, mostly because the internet makes their message more available. The message is the same. Hate, hate, hate anyone and anything that is not just like me.
ReplyDeleteAnd, of course, it was a Communist (left wing) enthusiast who actually decided to kill him, a fact which the Left immediately rushed to submerge under dark mutterings about the "far right" and moonbat conspiracy theories.
ReplyDeleteNever forget.
This is a part of history I didn't know. When are we going to learn that murder begins in the heart and words do indeed turn into bullets?
ReplyDeleteI'm one of that small minority that thinks that Oswald did it, and that he did it himself. Oswald was a paranoid nutcase as the Soviets knew all along. Kennedy was hardly the first world leader to be murdered out of the blue by a lunatic (remember Henry IV of France; Queen Victoria suffered 5 assassination attempts, all by lunatics).
ReplyDeleteI don't think any cabal murdered Kennedy.
I do think that Oswald made a lot of people's fondest wish come true.
Be careful what you wish for Mac (or Brad).
I remain convinced that MLK's murder was a conspiracy. There were a lot of people, very rich and powerful people, who wanted him dead.
ReplyDeleteI would imagine that the same people who had a hand in King's death still own and run the United States.
We're all so lucky that you condescend to live among us, spreading your light, progressive touch.

Sad Brad: he has no friends.
