You didn't notice something interesting about the New Zirbel?
In his first LBJ did it book, back there in 1991, he was all for a Texas Conspiracy.
Now, a generation later, from the Contents, he has changed it to a Johnson/Mafia conspiracy.
You know, I don't think consistency is too much to ask in a writer.
This reminds me of that goofball Nigel Turner. In the first go round, he posits Steve Rivele's fruity Corsican Connection via Christian David.
Then, over a decade later, in 2003, he comes up with the whole Barr McClellan/Murchison/LBJ thing.
And no one is supposed to notice? Or ask questions?
Its this kind of thing that gets us marginalized into the tin foil hat crowd.
Mr Zirbels first book The Texas Connection tried to pin the entire assassination on LBJ and his Texas cronies, now its LBJ and the Mafia. Now in a twenty year period anyone can change their mind, dig up new evidence, come to new conculsions, but whatever role LBJ and the mob had in the murder, and I believe both had a role, but as Mr Drago said LBJ was not the mastermind and in no way could be, the mob had a role, but it too was NOT, the driving force.
