You guys. Sheesh. The REAL conspiracy is that Kennedy wasn’t shot at all! It was all a fake. Kennedy is still alive and helping to control the world government with Elvis and Amelia Earhart down in a secret volcanic bunker in Bolivia (yeah, I know). It was quite a struggle between Kennedy and the Nazi forces lead by Hitler, but in the end good old American know-how showed those Nazi bastards what was what. Hitler is now a cabana boy for a large notorious biker group in the mid-west…

Admittedly, there is some truth to the guy in the sewer…that was the guy with the cloaking technology that allowed Kennedy to escape (that’s right…via the sewer) into the fixed up alien space ship (fixed up at Area 51…the one that originally crashed at Roswell) and them to substitute the cloned replacement for Kennedy, the one with the squib surgically planted to simulate the effects of gun shots, and designed to be obvious but to still provide the CT nutters with endless hours of fun and amusement.

Waitwaitwait: The forensic report of the 9/11 disaster showed that not only did a missle hit the Pentagon, but that there was unexplained sewage residue. Could it be. . .?

What’s really shocking is that he’d be 93 this year.

It couldn’t have been a beaver. I spotted a beaver in a bush once and it didn’t have a gun.

You can be darn sure no one was caught in 1928 giving the order to proceed on a cell phone in California.

Oh, I don’t think it can be called random. This particular missive from JFK fantasy-land isn’t dnooman’s first, nor I suspect his last.

‘Be it resolved that JFK was done in by the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?’ I think this belongs in MPSIMS, not Great Debates.

Somewhere in here there should be a “rectum? It killed 'im!” joke.

Although I was in Dallas at the time, I was buying a coke in a 7-11 in the Garland suburb. I didn’t keep the receipt, though. I wonder if it would have any collector’s value now?
