287. Not only that
Edited on Fri Feb-22-08 06:38 PM by ailsagirl
Kennedy had actually decided to begin withdrawing troops in Dec. 1963.
Big mistake as far as he went-- after he died, Johnson "quietly" suspended
that decision.

Then, Kennedy was furious over rogue elements of the CIA who were allowed
to go off half-cocked and make terrible decisions without clearing anything.
He wanted to break down the CIA and scatter it into a million pieces. And he
then wanted to give the power to the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Another "mistake."

He simply didn't toe the line so... he was out.

That was a coup that day and anyone who believes that LHO had anything to
do with the murder is living in a dream world.

BTW, have you ever seen this clip?
