November 22 plus 45 years


Two days ago was the 45th Anniversary of JFK's assassination in Dallas.

"Mr. President, you can't say Dallas doesn't love you," the first lady of Texas commented, as the presidential limousine entered Dealey Plaza. JFK supposedly said, "I would never say that."

Then shots rang out and within a few hours the nation learned that their president had been killed by a single gunman.

In the following decades thousands of investigators have attempted to lift the veil of mystery from this murder without ever arriving at an undeniable truth, however with the election of Barack Obama perhaps a little more light can be shone on this dark moment in American history.

45 years is more than enough to not know why.

It might eb time for a change, but even more so for the truth.
