The James Earl Jones JFK Conspiracy Special

[Bob]

Some of you have probably seen this vid, but maybe not. It came out shortly after the movie JFK was released. So we are talking about almost 20 years ago. Still...this conspiracy special is infinitely better than any recent presentations on either Discovery or the History channels that have the likes of Gary Mack, Dale Myers and bullshit artists like that in it. Was everything correct in this special? No...but it was a hell of a lot closer to the truth than any JFK special I've EVER seen on Discovery.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid ... conspiracy#

Here's an interesting tidbit about that special told to me by Daniel Sheehan (yet another Santa Cruzian!)...Moments before the show was to begin, the participants got official word that the key sponsor would pull the plug if Nixon were to be implicated in any way. Jones dutifully complied, but Sheehan tried to finesse that issue.Still, I agree the special was much better than most.

All I can say, is next time I'm out in California, I won't be hanging around Los Angeles, San Francisco or Sacramento to see Arnold (where he says Caleefornia). I will definitely drop by Santa Cruz, as it sounds like one of the coolest places in the country.

Well, it is very well promoted, obviously.Lots of good beer too!

Speaking from experience Bob, Santa Cruz is a very neat place. I was stationed at Ft Ord Ca for 4 years and went there often. And it does have great beer.

That special was one of the best! If you see the movie "Clear and Present Danger" with James Earl Jones and Harrison Ford, you know that these actors know EXACTLY what's playing in their country. But do they really use their power and influence to change it for the better? NO! Wim

Yes i have seen this before and it is probably the most unbiased (from a lone nutter) perspective, and i will give it another viewing as soon as i get time.
