Who Killed JFK? The Conservative “Climate of Hate”!



According to Arthur Schlesinger, Jr. and other Kennedy-friendly biographers, the young president was a victim of the political atmosphere, not Marxist Lee Harvey Oswald. Conservative criticism of Kennedy led a disturbed young man (Oswald) to kill Kennedy and The Dream. Man, this is an old left-liberal script:

Go straight to Schlesinger’s A Thousand Days: John F. Kennedy in the White House (1965).

He quotes a local: “’the spirit of assassination’ had pervaded the city.” Dallas was inhabited by ‘”people who have hate in their hearts and who seem want to destroy.”

For other sixties-era, “conservative hate killed Kennedy” accounts see here.

Search this book for “hate” and you’ll find other biographers echoing the theme.

This fit with the Liberal Establishment’s psychoanalysis of conservatism: Richard Hofstadter’s Paranoid Style in Politics found paranoid conspiracies under every conservative bed (to steal the phrase about communists under every bed). Yet left-liberals seem to possess their own paranoid style, not that they would ever admit such.

At any rate, here is today’s history lesson:

Oswald did not kill Kennedy, “hate” in Dallas did!

  1. Who cares who killed Kennedy? Why compare it to Mafia leader getting bumped off – one less gangster in the world?

  2. It’s not about Kennedy (who cares, really?). It’s about the liberal reaction to every act of violence. The psychobabble is predictable.

  3. It is the Left that cries about impending violence.

    But it is the Left that commits nearly all of it.

    What is up with that?

  4. Lee Harvey Oswald did not kill John F. Kennedy. A cabal with tremendous power was able to use crossfire in Dealey Plaza to kill Kennedy, as evidenced in the Zapruder film and supported by new emerging evidence and these books: Inside the ARRB by Douglas Horne, JFK & the Unspeakable, by Jim Douglass, Me & Lee: How I Came to Know, Love and Lose Lee Harvey Oswald, by Judyth Vary Baker, Crossfire, by Jim Marrs, and dr. Mary’s Monkey by Edward T. Haslam. Read the reviews at Me & Lee and at JFK and the Unspeakable for a quick education about the truth.

  5. All you people have been so miss directed by the magicians, that you have failed to redeem the source, to the truth. First and only evidence needed to know that something is not square, is the rifle and not the person. In any engagement on a moving target, you will not use a bolt action weapon, for rapid fire. The weapon of choice is always a semi automatic of a smaller caliber. less recoil and quicker recovery of your site picture, or target. All of which were available at that time in history. This is my first and will be my only comment for all you Einsteins out there.
