Well, one hates to go back there, but it changed my life. I was working at NASA in Houston, in a bull pen of other supply types. Somebody brought a tv and we all watched as Walter announced his death. Stunned silence, except for one guy who said “it’s about time.” I remember the shock of that statement, and somebody who said he was a John Bircher. Young and ignorant, I had no clue. We all went home and were off work til the funeral. I sat on the bed watching tv and crying. Then the drama got more bizarre, Thanks to Jack Ruby. I remember somebody saying that John Birchers thought Ike was a communist. I had liked Ike (because he kicked Hitler’s arse) and thought that was crazy. Became a political animal and LBJ fan, in one fell swoop. I still think John Birchers and their ilk (by whatever name these days, Republican fits), are evil personified.
Rob Reiner has a new well researched podcast series that provides a credible and horrible reason for Jack Ruby's assassination of Oswald, and Oswald's assasination of JFK.
