Stephen Carson at LRC blog reports:
Here is a not-to-be-missed web page from the U.S. federal government addressing various conspiracy theories that involve the U.S. government: Conspiracy Theories and Misinformation. They write: “Conspiracy theories exist in the realm of myth, where imaginations run wild, fears trump facts, and evidence is ignored. As a superpower, the United States is often cast as a villain in these dramas.”
Here's a warning from the
federal government website:
Perhaps more conspiracy theories surround Lee Harvey Oswald, who assassinated President John Kennedy in 1963, than anyone in American history. The Soviet KGB, Cuba, the mafia, the CIA, and others have been blamed for killing Kennedy, but all evidence indicates that Oswald acted alone.
If there's nothing to hide(in the JFK matter) why doesn't the government release
George Joannides' file? Anyway, the Sherman and Clayton acts are based on conspiracy theory. Does the government think people who get involved in politics are purer than businessmen? Who could forget the Rod Blagojevich case is based on
conspiracy to commit RICO? Who could forget the ultra sleazy Chicago voters sent
this "high ranking made member " of the Chicago Mob to Chicago's City Council for 23 years?
