Just the best article ever...
My favorite (internet) article of all time- devastating to the Kennedy detail and never ceases to amaze me (and, no, I had nothing to do with it, although I am mentioned several times in it). A modern-day classic: http://www.sott.net/article/269016-Gerald-Blaine-and-the-Kennedy-Detail-Was-the-Secret-Service-Stood-Down-in-Dallas#

JFK files coming
It was Hunt, shortly before he died in 2007, who claimed that he had been privy to a plot by several CIA affiliates to kill Kennedy — what he referred to as “the Big Event.”
Also under review by the special team of archivists are at least 606 pages about David Atlee Phillips, another CIA officer who won a medal for his role in overthrowing the government of Guatemala in 1954, went on to run operations in Latin America, and along with Hunt played a leading role in anti-Castro activities in Cuba.
Phillips was accused — though never charged — of committing perjury when asked about agency ties to Oswald by the House Select Committee on Assassinations. Phillips, too, late in life attributed the JFK assassination to “rogue” CIA officers.

ABSOLUTE MUST-HAVE JFK BOOK !!!!
The Irish Brotherhood: John F. Kennedy, His Inner Circle, and the Improbable Rise to the Presidency- ESSENTIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
TOUCHING, TERRIFIC and so well written!
Helen O'Donnell, the daughter of the late, great Ken O'Donnell, has written a book even better (if that is possible) than the wonderful "A Common Good". In short, this book is terrific, touching, and very well written; an account NO fan of JFK or RFK can live without! I am very impressed, indeed.
You know how there are some books where "once was enough" and you may not even want to own? Well, THIS book is both a "keeper" and one you will read and refer to again and again. Helen, you did your parents very proud with this excellent book. In fact, I have no criticisms whatsoever.
Get this one asap!
