Jackie Kennedy Reportedly Believed LBJ Behind JFK Assassination
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2011/08/08...hind-husbands/
Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis believed Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson was behind the assassination of her husband, according to tapes recorded by the former first lady just months after President John F. Kennedy's death, the Daily Mail reports.
The tapes, which are set to be released by ABC News, reportedly reveal that Kennedy-Onassis believed then-vice president Johnson, along with businessmen in the South, planned the Nov. 22, 1963, assassination of her husband in Dallas, Texas.
Kennedy-Onassis thought gunman Lee Harvey Oswald -- long believed to be a lone assassin -- was part of a larger conspiracy involving Johnson, according to the Daily Mail.
The tapes, which were recorded with historian Arthur Schlesinger Jr., also reveal that Kennedy-Onassis had an affair with actor William Holden in retaliation to her husband's reported indiscretions, the Daily Mail reports.
The tapes, which were sealed in a vault at the Kennedy Library in Boston, were supposed to be released 50 years after Kennedy-Onassis' 1994 death. But her daughter, Caroline Kennedy, reportedly agreed to their early release in exchange for ABC dropping its drama series about the family. It is not yet known when the tapes will air.

Most of America felt LBJ was behind the JFK shooting, who had the most to gain from the incident, likely suspect, motive, etc.
LBJ also disrupted the investigation from a position of authority.

I don't think he originated the idea, but I think he was involved in it. Like any detective investigating a crime: who benefits?

There was a great book written in 2003 that delineates LBJ's plot blow by blow. Very compelling. One of the most telling photos was LBJ's swearing in on AF1. The camera captured Jackie's grief and LBJ's smile as he was being sworn in. There was no shock, no fear, no sorrow.
Blood, Money, and Power.

Johnson did it, the mob did it, the CIA did it, Cuban dissidents did it, Oswald did it, the Russians did it. Maybe one day before I die the truth will be known.

"Shooter?"
I hate it when a good quote is on the edge of my brain and I'm not 100% certain.
Edited to Add...I should trust my instincts...just confirmed through the wonder of "google."

Yup. Levon Helm, former drummer for The Band. Hard to believe a rock 'n' roll drummer could be such a good actor...

I hope you're being ironic, or at least facetious.
If Helm's a good actor, then Glenn Campbell should have recieved an Oscar for True Grit I.
