McAdams, JFK Facts, and "Moderation"

[Don Jeffries]

My post on the very lengthy "Simkin to close JFK Education Forum" thread disappeared a while back. I sent Morley an email, but he claimed it was something normal. The post has never reappeared.

Something normal? He either allows the post to go through or he does not.

Obviously when the moderators see one side proving the other to be bogus they jump in because it wrecks their attempt to construct an equal playing field.

Here's the actual reply I received from them:

"The site has been under construction. As I said, some comments might
get lost in the process."

I emailed them again, and asked if my post would be returning.

I think this may be the case.

That is really weird how Don's post just disappeared.

But it may have been because of all the comments that went up showing that Simkin really kind of mismanaged his site. I mean RCD hopped on and showed that this was at least as much the case as there being too many "nuts" there.

And BTW, Dawn, it was not just RCD who retired from Spartacus over me and Scully being banned. It was also Dwayne Dunn and Martin Hay. All three of those guys were good.

But anyway, I hope this calls some attention to this problem.

ANd BTW, its so obvious that BradR/May is a fake name troll that its almost funny. He actually said that since i gave my documents from Destiny Betrayed, second edition to Bill Davy, that therefore I made up my book. Since I could not post the documents now.

I said, does this mean that anytime an author donates his documents to a repository or to another writer, we cannot use that book for reference anymore? That would mean we would have to discard many, many books. He never answered that question. That is when I realized Photon had now donned another false name to help McAdams.

You really wonder about these people. What keeps them going when the ARRB has completely collapsed their position. As I show in my series on the 50th anniversary of the WC, those lawyers took part in a knowing fraud. Which is why they so bitterly castigated those who exposed them. They should have been disbarred. But the Power Elite protected them. To defend them today is like putting your finger in a collapsing dam--its hopeless because there are so many leaks.

[Jim DiEugenio]

I just checked.

Both of those comments are still on moderation.

So I am glad I posted them here. People can finally read them. The information in them is solid, and counters the BS put out by McAdams over there.

And Martin Hay's review of Willens is really right on and his destruction of the whole "RFK wanted Dulles on the WC" exposes that for what it is: a cover story for LBJ.

McAdams has a soul brother, Bill Clarke, at JFK Facts who insists that Kennedy was not really going to withdraw from Vietnam. And he also despises any mention of John Newman's groundbreaking book JFK and Vietnam.

He and I went at it a few times. He then started following me around the site on topics that had nothing to do with Vietnam, trying to bait me.

So I dropped the following reply to him. You won't believe this, but this has been on moderation since June 16th, in other words about a month and a half. So in the interests of full disclosure and fairness, I will post it here:

If something has been on moderation that long, it isn't going to be posted. I've had that happen several times at JFK Facts, which is why I rarely post there anymore. Perfectly non-controversial and inoffensive statements never get posted. Maybe the moderator is just overwhelmed and misses some of them.

But I'm also tired of having the same arguments over and over with the LNers there. You debunk their crap, and then they come right back with it again in the next thread as though you never disproved it.

It's funny how we are supposed to be a free country but we're not. What DiEugenio shows here is evidence of criminal obstruction of justice done against the New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison by those named in his post. Instead of exposing it the current mainstream media continues to pump the lies of the original violators without any counter-opinion.

It would be nice to form a posse and ride into those studios with badges and start doing citizen's arrests etc.

[Jim DiEugenio]

So with Tracy and me and Don, that makes three of us.

Albert, that most definitely was an obstruction of justice.

But the media had done such a good job of making Garrison radioactive that the public was not aware of it. Also, and I left this out of my book, the FBi went to the UPI dispatch desk and told the guy not to carry any more of Garrison's press releases. So his side was strangled.

Of course, Ramsey Clark was part of the cover up at the time. I think the guy turned around in life later to do penance for his part in the cover ups of King and JFK.

No one will ever know what JG would have achieved if he had not been interfered with. But we do have what the CIA thought. At the first meeting of the Garrison Group, Rocca said that if JG was allowed to proceed, Garrison would convict Shaw.

BTW, what McAdams does with these memos is a disgrace. He says Helms was not at the meetings. Well, no, but he ordered them. And he sent his first assistant, Thomas K to attend for him. Think he was interested? I do.

Jim, have you seen Oliver Stone's 'Untold History' series? I bought it on DVD, and found the JFK segment to be pretty good, though not perfect. He does embrace the JFK-started-out-as-a-Cold-Warrior idea, and makes a fairly good case for it in some areas (I didn't realize the use of toxic herbicides in Vietnam began under Kennedy).

I think that on the Cold War spectrum (Curtis LeMay/Allen Dulles = 10, Henry Wallace/Adlai Stevenson = 1), JFK began his Presidency at around 4 or 5, and when he was killed he was a 2 or 3.
