Oswald acted alone

Posted By Walter Locke

Oswald was involved in a conspiracy to assassinate JFK just as the groundwork was being laid to fake the moon landings, cover up Paul McCartney's death, and hide the evidence of a crashed flying saucer in Area 51 . I think the Easter Bunny was the wheel man for Oswald, too. I'm sorry if I sound sarcastic, but there is ample evidence for a solo attack on JFK and these conspiracy notions simply play on our fears. In turn, they make us easy prey for people who would sell us on books, films, and websites that reinforce those fears. The real conspiracy is entitled "Let's Make A Buck On The Rubes" and the perpetrators don't even need black helicopters to carry it out!

You busted me, Joe! I think I was provoked by the painfully incorrect spelling of Ike's last name that was being batted around, and my utter inability to remember the correct spelling. Eisenhauer, perhaps? Anyway, poor spelling and conspiracy theories always seem to push me to my breaking point. Please forgive me.

My spell check says Eisenhower is the proper spelling. Whew! I feel better now.

Manned Missions to Space

Posted By Walter Locke

For the U.S. space program to be an effective tool of exploration and discovery, NASA must have a clear mandate that isn't going to change by the whims of each successive administration. NASA must also have adequate funding that isn't going to be affected by the transient successes and failures of each high-profile mission. Finally, NASA needs an overhaul to make it less bureaucratic, and more flexible, creative, and bold, without being reckless.
