Len Colby Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I get the impression it is full of Sy Hersh like soap opera sleaze. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I'm amazed that conservative-run corporations aren't picking up the advertising slack. Why not, do you suppose? I know lots of guys and gals who work in conservative corporations and who claim to be politically conservative, and are proud to say they vote for conservative candidates, and whom I consider friends, but I not recall any of them ever saying a bad word about JFK. I believe that our fellow member Craig Lamson is politically conservative, and I don't recall Craig ever saying a bad word about JFK. Ronald Reagan was the leading conservative of his time and he made no secret of his admiration for JFK. I believe that, in that regard, Reagan spoke for a majority of Republicans. Of course there are the Loonies who give conservatism a bad name. Sy Hersh, on the other hand, who used forged documents to convince a major publisher to allow him to change the topic of his book from an investigation of JFK's assassination to a vicious piece of character assassination, is regarded as a LIBERAL. .

Barry Keane Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Barry: If you and your compatriots would allow me, I would be honored to speak at the next DPUK conference. The topic I was thinking of is Jim Garrison, and how he deceived himself. Ray, we might just take you up on that, if only just for the pint!

J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ray, we might just take you up on that, if only just for the pint! I expect that you have an embarrassment of riches this year, with outstanding speakers like Gerry McKnight who were unable to present last year, due to the Iceland Volcano. If the schedule is already crowded, so be it. I would love to attend anyway, and I will try to swing it, but the prospect of addressing the conference would guarantee my attendance, whether Jim Di Eugenio accepts the challenge or not. I have been to Tunbridge Wells, where my Kentish cousins live, and I hear that Canterbury is a lovely town I just looked at the DPUK website and cannot find the date for this years conference. Has the date been set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Keane Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Ray, The Conference is set for the 16th/17th April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 I.. would definitely be interested in seeing J. Raymond Carroll spin and distort the evidence in person. I am nearly certain I can make those dates if invited to speak, though I was shocked to see how much airfares have jumped since I was in London a few years ago. If Jim DI Eugenio is unable to attend (it is short notice) perhaps the good folks at DPUK would consider inviting Mr. Farley to present the pro-Garrison rebuttal? I too have neglected to join DPUK, an omission I intend to rectify regardless of whether I make the conference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 But you don't play fair. So I won't... That is faulty logic. Even if you truly believe that I do not play fair, you should not let that prevent YOU from playing fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 15, 2011 Share Posted March 15, 2011 Sometimes "faulty logic" is created to preserve one's sanity. As I hope to discuss at Canterbury, it was faulty logic that led Garrison astray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Raymond Carroll Posted March 16, 2011 Share Posted March 16, 2011 Thanks John, for posting the Seminar info. Looking like a great conference. Note for next year: I'd say that a few Yanks would love to attend if we had sufficient advance notice to incorporate the conference into a European vacation plan.
