Kansas City Star Frets: The Same Conservatives That Killed JFK Might Kill Obama…
Wait, conservatives killed JFK? Did I miss something the last 50 years?
[A]fter Kennedy’s assassination, Dallas staggered as media accounts labeled it the “city of hate.” That was hurtful; an act by a deranged individual shouldn’t define a city.
But The Dallas Morning News acknowledged in an editorial this month that the city had an anger issue: “Indeed, this city had a broad streak of in-your-face right-wing politics born of Cold War anxieties and sectional resentments. The darker angels of our nature had stature and voice, so much so that Kennedy said his Texas trip was a foray into “nut country.”
We live again — or perhaps still — in angry times. And today, as in 1963, much of the anger is directed at a leader who is seen by many as “different,” a disruption of the image that some people hold of the nation and the person who represents it as president.
In 1963, Dallas was a hotbed for conspiracy theories, contempt for the federal government and insinuations about the president’s loyalties and motives. Half a century later, all of that mistrust and anger has metastasized through the Internet, cable news and other media.
Fifty years ago, Americans were shocked to learn that a group of influential Dallas businessmen had circulated “Wanted for Treason” pamphlets before Kennedy’s arrival. Today, material like that directed at President Barack Obama is abundant.

Why people have to create nonnews? Is it to divert attention from other news?

"Today, material like that directed at Resident Barack Obama is abundant."
He would love for that to happen. Unfortunately for him, Conservatives don't want to f*ck all the liberals off, and unlike the liberals, we don't talk about killing them and their families, or sh*tting on their heads.
Give him some ritalin and a glass of kool-aid while he settles back down.

Funny, but I haven't seen the level of vitriol directed at Obama reach the level of that directed at Shrub. And I'm no fan of Shrub, it's just when they make a movie about killing Obama, then they'll have something to complain about.

Funny that Kennedy wasn't liked by many of his own party in his day. Probably because his ideas were much closer to conservatism than liberalism. His stances on taxation, economic growth and government spending were not in line with the liberal train of thought.
Also funny how they are STILL trying to paint an assassin who had dallied with the commies as some conservative nut. Good thing the internet hadn't been invented yet because the press of the day would have jumped the gun and labeled him a right winger immediately, until they realized that everybody knew he was more aligned with the far left. Just like they actually did when Rep Gabby Giffords was shot and numerous other examples.
This is fodder for the LIV crowd and your simple liberals mis-educated in public schools.

Obama is safe because Washington has gun laws. And it's good to know that even though nothing happened Obama is still portrayed as the victim.

Obama is safe due to two words.
Joe. Biden.

According to Oliver Stone, Obama is safe unless he pisses off the military.

Exactly. God the liberal mind is warped. Talk about making a leap. Oswald the gun toting, hating conservative. lol.

Yes, Oswald was a card-carrying member of the John Birch Society, who visited the Soviet Union and Cuba at the height of the Cold War.
Libs live in a fantasy land.

Now that I think about it, someone who would want Obama's name on every street may shoot him.
He better watch his back around Oprah and Pelosi.
