Try and disregard the more current picture of the balding man.





Extra credit if you can guess the time and place associated with the picture...

1. I was thinking Lee Oswald before noticing the bottom left corner
so assuming it is, and is it the schoolbook depository in '63?

3. Darn! That blows my whole quiz
Originally someone over at the education forum suggested a resemblance of the balding dude with the man in jeans from his younger days. That seems far fetched to me.

Instead i see another famous person. It's just a matter of checking existing photos of him at the time.

6. Not sure what you're saying? That it is Oswald?
or "another famous person'?

5. Yes
I'm always glad to see distribution of these photos. gets people thinking.

And at the same time there have been a fair amount of hucksters around trying to pimp off the assassination.

The problem of attaching the Bush Family to JFK murder is three fold:

1. There is much suspicion and oddities that connect Bush(s) to dallas Nov. '63 but no actual definitive hard evidence. we can see the smoke but not the gun.

2. Kennedys have always drawn in the hucksters. An easy drama to get sucked into.

3. The Bush family makes for the perfect villain for the story. So much so that it's easy to create false leaps without true evidence.

Never the less i truly believe that Bush I is linked to the assassination Dallas Nov., '63.

7. And nothing suspicious about the fact that GHWB is the only person in the world
Edited on Fri Jul-09-10 08:10 PM by abq e streeter
who was over the age of 5 that day, who, by an astounding coincidence, can't remember where he was. I was 12, and can remember every single detail; Jimmy Kohn stopping me in the hall outside my math class to tell me JFK had been shot, my shop teacher Mr. Huebner announcing that JFK had died,walking home with Alan Peterson and talking about it with our 12 year old's level of understanding, everything... but Bush Sr. just can't quite remember.
P.S. hope this reply doesn't get this sent to the dungeon...if this concerns you, let me know and I'll erase it.

15. how do you forget an event you documented to the FBI (or was it CIA)
? Geez.

Tha fact that Reagan was almost assasinated by a bush family friend (!) when GHWB was Vice President (cui bono?) makes me think that GB is either the most coincidentally involved guy in the 20th century (frikkin Forrest Gump already....) OR he's the James Bond of Evil. Prolly the latter.

8. Looks like Shrub
Makes sense, as that famous picture possibly shows daddy standing in front of the Book Depository.
