When Kennedy was murdered, Earl Warren, the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and later head of the Warren Commission, immediately said, “Some right wing extremist did this!”

I am open to correction, but I believe that no statement has ever fallen so far down into the national Memory Hole than this one.

I would remember it in any case, but remember that I had a special reason to. I was 22 years old and I had already had an adverse file with the FBI for seven years. Before Oswald was arrested, anyone in my position would assume he was going to be questioned a lot and the Feds would be trying to link all of us to a conspiracy.

The left had been shouting about how evil us right wing extremists were, we Warren had, and they were in their glory at that moment. The left was desperately disappointed when Lee Harvey Oswald, a hard leftist, was arrested.

They have not gotten over that bitter disappointment to this day. They are STILL trying to prove that the Warren Commission covered up for a conspiracy of right wingers who happened to plan their assasination for the very day Oswald was supposed to have shot Kennedy.

I THINK I remember something else everybody else has forgotten.

About 1961 there was news item that said that the president had signed a paper which allowed an American who had given up his citizenship and moved to the Soviet Union to return tot he United States.

For an American who was not under charges of spying to go to the USSR and give up his citizenship was unique, so this was a newsw item.

The man was Lee Harvey Oswald. The president who let him return was John F. Kennedy.

If I remember correctly, this was a major irony of history, but it has gone down the media hole because it makes Oswald look like a leftist.

So I said inthe article below that if a black Republican presidential nominee were killed, it would be a black or a Hispanic who did it, n ot a right-wing extremist.

This is not exactly a wild guess.
