George Will on ABC This Week: JFK "Docu-Drama" Was a License to LIE...
and that it was the result of Oliver Stone's paranoia.

What Will forgoes is that Stone's account was based on Jim Garrison's TRUE account of the events surrounding his investigation into Kennedy's assasination. It still amazes me that they got the REAL Jim Garrison to act in that movie (played the part of a judge).

Not that a little artistic license was probably employed but I think Stone got JFK dead on.

1. Screw Will...
He's an apologist fakir-supreme for the so-called Intellectual RWers.

I'm sick of him and his ilk. He's real conservative...but guess what - he wanted Fed funding for Special Children. Guess why? He has a retarded son, now an adult, and is part of the support group of same. What a hypocrite like Christie Whitman.

3. Katrina vanden Heuvel was cleaning his clock
though he was furiously spewing talking points over what she was trying to say.

4. jfk dead almost 50 years. HISTORIC FICTION is what its called.
facts, theories and imagination wrapped up into a book or movie.

this happened 5 years ago, the principals still alive and many of the "facts" are wrong. this is PROPAGANDA.

It,s the sleepers like will and carlson that scare me the most, because of their ability to appear reasonable while pressing their agenda.

7. Nobody votes Dem over Rep because of anything in JFK!
The whole point of Path to 9/11 is that it's supposed to convince people to vote against Dems in November.

10. Stone presented every conspiracy theory in that movie. It was brilliant.
If people don't understand that he wasn't making a "docu-drama", that their fault, not Oliver Stones.

He put all those conspiracy theories in the movie on purpose, because in reality those conspiracies have been around since the day JFK was killed.

11. JFK was in theaters where you paid to see it, not on PUBLIC airwaves
with hidden sponsors.
