NEW BOOK CLAIMS JFK HAD SECRET LOVE AFFAIR WITH LEE HARVEY OSWALD

A new upcoming book by author William H. Burrow, former Librarian of Congress and Harvard Historian, claims JFK’s assassination had nothing to do with a conspiracy theory involving the CIA, Lyndon B. Johnson or heads of the Chicago Mob but instead was the result of a secret love affair turned tragic.

The shocking new narrative comes not from the soon to be declassified JFK files that Congress is set to release in October of 2017, but instead by an eye-witness testimony from one of JFK’s most trustworthy bodyguards at the time, Edward Mahoney.

Burrow claims he has gotten this privileged information from the recorded death-bed confession of the 88-year-old former bodyguard of the president who recently passed away.

According to William H. Burrow's upcoming book Sex, Love and Death of a President: The real story behind the JFK and Oswald love affair Lee Harvey Oswald was an abusive and jealous lover completely obsessed with JFK.

“Mahoney was a key witness to John Fitzgerald Kennedy’s intricate web of love affairs. If his affairs with Marylin Monroe and Lyndon B. Johnson’s wife are well documented, what I learned about Lee Harvey Oswald left me flabbergasted,” he told reporters during the press conference.

“Oswald was extremely jealous and possessive. He hated that Marilyn got so much press about her affair with JFK and that he got none, he wanted everyone to know the special and intimate relationship he had with the president and grew very bitter with time'” he explained.

“When JFK wanted to terminate the relationship, that’s when Oswald went totally berserk,” the author claims, based on until now unpublished chapters of Lee Harvey Oswald’s own personal diary.

“The truth had been lying there in plain sight since the beginning, everything was written in his diary for all to see, but no one would have believed such a story at the time,” he adds.

“Edward Mahoney organized secret meetings with the president and Oswald in a number of hotels and locations. He swore on his deathbed that he was telling the truth and that the president had first met Oswald in San Francisco, at a private gentlemen’s club called Bohemian Grove in 1960, the year previous to his election.”

Oswald was allegedly a waiter and “sex toy” for members of the elite club according to Mahoney, a claim substantiated by Lee Harvey Oswald’s own diary confirms the author.

The book, which is set to be released next fall, promises to lift the veil of secrecy around the president’s multiple love affairs and dispel once and for all the “conspiratory views” that have blamed a number of culprits for the president’s assassination such as top members of the CIA, the former vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson and the Chicago Mob, claims the author.

This is absolutely going to be a movie! After all... if a Twilight fanfiction can, why can't this?

[–] Cookie.L.A. (2117) 7 years ago

Now we know who killed Marilyn...!!

[–] actionkamen (23176) 7 years ago

Is it Elvis??
I always knew something was not quite right with that guy!!

[–] Cookie.L.A. (2117) 7 years ago

No, no...Oswald obviously killed Marilyn to get her out of his boyfriend JFK's life! There was a strong "Alienation of Affection" undercurrent at work...serving as a virtual RIPTIDE!

William H. Burrow's next book will be about secret love affair between George W. Bush and Saddam Hussein, and how the real reason for invasion of Iraq was that Saddam was cheating on Bush.

[–] actionkamen (23176) 7 years ago

And the one Saddam dating is, you guessed it, Osama. That's why Osama did 911 to avenge Saddam. Later, it turns out Osama is actually a clone of Obama, he just had a plastic surgery so they looked different. Their names are an obvious proof. Why nobody even realized this is unfathomable!

Plot twist: they were both cloned from the DNA of Obadiah from the Bible. JFK was a devout Catholic, so he knew all of this. That's why he visited the Pope in 1963, to ask about it. Oswald is actually a secret agent sent by Vatican to keep JFK silent, but they found love. The rest is history.

[–] Apis (1624) 7 years ago

This has mini series written all over it. They could call it Game of Clones. It wouldn't be the weirdest thing on TV. ;)

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

Just another piece of crap!
Honestly.... This is the weirdest story I have ever heard. People will buy the book. If a movie is made, people will watch it. No doubt about it! That's the tragedy. This will make money for this idiot.

This man is a predator!

[–] Mint Berry Crunch (345) 7 years ago

JFK? Makes sense. Sexual degenerates always are.

[–] napsdufroid (2077) 7 years ago

Only problem with this little tale beyond the other nonsense is that anyone with a functioning brain knows there's no way Oswald fired the fatal shot from that window.

[–] Mint Berry Crunch (345) 7 years ago

It's been proven time and time again.

[–] napsdufroid (2077) 7 years ago

No it hasn't. It's been theorized with zero proof time and again.

[–] Mint Berry Crunch (345) 7 years ago

If by theorized, you mean, actually recreated dozens of times, yes, it's been "theorized"

Good lord. Take off the fricken tin foil hat.

[–] napsdufroid (2077) 7 years ago

Grow a brain. No way Oswald fired the fatal shot. Only morons believe that

[–] NGMI (1184) 3 years ago

Ever heard of youtube? Go watch all the recreations.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

He fired a shot that hit, but a secret service agent in the car behind stood and fell back, discharging, shooting the prez in the head.

[–] BullSchmidt (3189) 3 years ago

I've heard that one too. I don't believe it, but just imagine that from LHO's perspective! His pulse is probably already at 120+, he's about to assassinate the President of the United States. He fires one shot that misses. He gets off another round that hits, but it's not a fatal wound. Now he's sighting in, aiming, knowing it might be his last chance ... and suddenly Kennedy's head explodes and he didn't pull the trigger. If nothing else, there's a good idea for a movie there.

[–] [deleted] 3 years ago

The secret service agent in question refused to talk about it and then claimed he'd sue. He obviously did it.

He used an exploding round which is why his head exploded.

Lee used a bullet designed to wound.

Spectators said they smelled gunpowder.

[–] BillHicksFan (10102) 3 years ago

There were probably 3 shooters - triangular.

Oswald tested negative for nitrate tests, and possibly never shot a thing, although he did have the unlisted phone number of George de Morenschildt, a CIA guy.

FBI questions him all day - no notes.

Warren Report is such a shitty work of fiction

[–] BullSchmidt (3189) 3 years ago

My mother told me about something that happened to her in May 1961. She was at home and got a phone call. The caller asked for her, using her maiden name. She replied that yes, that was her, but she was now married. She knew she had heard the man's voice before, and when he introduced himself as Pierre Salinger, she recognized the voice from the televised press conferences he sometimes did. He explained that he was working through the census roll of adult American women in alphabetical order, recruiting sexual liaisons for the President, and asked if she'd like a trip to DC for that purpose. All expenses would be paid, and he promised it would be the best thirty seconds of her life. She declined, saying if it was only thirty seconds it wasn't worth the trouble.

Now, her maiden name started with a "C." By November of 1963, I'd say they had worked their way to women whose surnames started with "O" or even "P" -- Marina's maiden name was Prusakova. I don't think Oswald acted alone, he was part of a gang of pissed off husbands, but he was definitely one of the shooters.

[–] BillHicksFan (10102) 3 years ago

Recruiting sexual liaisons? With his name? Is it possible the guy knew he sounded just like Salinger and played a joke?

[–] BullSchmidt (3189) 3 years ago

Nope. When he introduced himself, she recognized the voice. Then when he explained the reason for his call, she thought it was a prank and said so. He then suggested she hang up, then phone directory assistance and get the White House phone number. Then she could call collect and ask for a certain phone operator, not by name but by number, something like "operator 37." Intrigued, she did that. The operator said they were expecting her call and put her through to Salinger, who reaffired his request to her.

Naturally, the fact that this was going on was denied by the Kennedy administration. The women who publicly spoke of it were discredited, in the same way people who claim to see flying saucers often are. And I'm sure some women took him up on it. But then, in October 1962, a whisteblower in the administration confirmed it. The code name for the project was "Operation Horndog." It could have been a real scandal, but Kennedy reacted with a brilliant maneuver. He had the CIA fake some U2 photos of missiles in Cuba, then used them to push the world to the brink of nuclear war. At least that's the way it looked. Khrushchev was a pussy hound himself and understood Kennedy's predicament, so he played along. Both men were hard nosed Cold Warriors, but both also considered pussy to trump all issues of ideology. The world was never in any danger. But by the time the "crisis" was over with, everyone had been so scared shitless and JFK looked so heroic that Operation Horndog was forgotten.

By the way, I have a bridge in Brooklyn I want to sell. Interested? :)

So many conspiracy theories use bad logic like "X knew Y, Y knew Z, therefore X knew Z." Well, here's a true story I'm not kidding about. One of my undergrad profs was a minor player in the Kennedy adminstration, the assistant to the deputy to the aide to the subordinate to someone fairly important. Occasionally he'd be called into meetings to provide facts and figures in his area of expertise. Kennedy knew who he was -- when they passed each other in the hallway there might be an exchange like, "Good morning, Will." "Good morning, Mr. President."

So, I knew Will and Will knew JFK, therefore I must have known Kennedy and I'm probably the guy who shot him. Most would consider it highly unlikely. I'm in my late fifties now; do the math. But given how crazy some conspiracy theories are, I think some would suspect me of it.

[–] BillHicksFan (10102) 3 years ago

Wow, that's one crazy story. Women could have recorded this, have multiple witnesses, etc..

I also never believed "we were so close to nuclear war" because there's nothing to gain. It's political theater for both sides, and the people of each country will look at their leaders in a positive light.

[–] BullSchmidt (3189) 3 years ago

A funny story about JFK, from Richard Goodwin's book Remembering America: A Voice from the Sixties.

Goodwin was a speechwriter for JFK during the 1960 campaign, and later was part of his and LBJ's adminstrations. One day during the campaign, one of Kennedy's staff -- let's call him Fred -- screwed up in some way, and as a result Kennedy was unable to deliver a scheduled speech to a crowd who had gathered to hear him. Well, that's a whole crowd full of lost votes. Now he was back in his hotel suite, alone in the bedroom, eating his lunch. He was wearing only his underwear, so that if there was an accident with his food it wouldn't stain his suit. Several of his staff were also in the suite, and he had told them to let him know immediately when Fred arrived. As he ate, he got more and more angry at Fred.

Immediately after lunch, Kennedy was scheduled to meet and gladhand with some local VIPs. So as he ate, those VIPs arrived at the suite to meet the candidate.

Then Fred arrived. Kennedy was immediately told. And -- clad only in his briefs -- he charged out of the bedroom and, in front of the staff and the VIPs, gave Fred a first rate tongue lashing, complete with some real profanity. When he finished he turned away, stormed back into his bedroom and slammed the door.

Several minutes later he came back out, now fully clothed. Welcomed the VIPs, shook hands, posed for pictures, et cetera. No apology or even comment about the prior incident. Goodwin wrote that as far as he could discern, Kennedy never realized that when he chewed out Fred there had been more than just his staff in the room.

Incidentally, that book was the basis for the movie Quiz Show, where Rob Morrow played Goodwin. The Van Doren scandal is only one chapter, though. It's a very good book.

[–] BillHicksFan (10102) 3 years ago

Yeah, I know Dick Goodwin (and his wife, Doris)... A few years ago, I read and compared the speeches for JFK and LBJ, and what a difference - very flexible!

Under JFK, a speech for legislation for interstate commerce, money for building roads would read like (I believe he coined the phrase "The New Frontier")

"When the time comes for the next generation to look back and judge us, let them not say we would not pass the torch"

Under LBJ, it went something like, "It would be nice if all men could live in peace..... Unfortunately, there are those who do not share our dream." (therefore, a truck will be there in the morning to pick up your brother)

Van Doren "the price was wrong"

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

WOW! I have read and heard some of the most crazy theorys about JFK's assassination in my time, but this one takes the cake! I am laughing out loud at this moment!

“Oswald was extremely jealous and possessive. He hated that Marilyn got so much press about her affair with JFK and that he got none, he wanted everyone to know the special and intimate relationship he had with the president and grew very bitter with time'” he explained.

At that time, there wasn't much, if ANY press about that affair with MM.
Naturally, there were people who knew about it, but it wasn't splashed across the front pages of checkout aisle tabloids back then, the way it it would be today.

[–] napsdufroid (2077) 7 years ago

Exactly why this whole premise is total BS...

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

I just can't stop chuckling. Some people will make up anything for money.
I don't know why I'm wasting my time here. I ought to be outlining MY book!
It's all about my sordid affair with little brother Bobby, and how it was leaked in the press.
Did you know that he was actually shot by a jealous ex lover? It's TRUE! I live with the guilt to this day!

[–] BiffGG (662) 7 years ago

There is no way that a secret of that type would have held for over 50 years. At least IF it were true that somebody bled the Kennedy's for tens of millions in black mail money.

It's all bullshit, my friend Margo. Please don't let it spoil your day.

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

"It's all bullshit, my friend Margo. Please don't let it spoil your day."

Spoil my day? I found the whole thing funny. Why would you think that this bothered me?
Having read books and articles, and looked at so many films on those conspiracy theorys, this is one of the most ridiculous stories I believe I have ever heard. Trust me! This one made my day!

[–] R_Kane (15828) 7 years ago

I lived through that time, Miss Margo. I know the news business very well. My father was a TV journalist at the time, the News Director for the CBS ("Tiffany Network") affiliate station in our city. I went on to become a columnist for The Boston Herald. There was NOTHING about JFK and MM in the news. In that era, the motto of The New York Times was "All the news that's fit to print." Walter Cronkite, anchorman for the CBS Evening News (and who was voted "The Most Trusted Man (read 'person') In America,") would have flat-out REFUSED to go on-air and read, "This just in: President John Kennedy is banging movie star Marilyn Monroe." Remember, Marilyn had to be sneaked in to JFK's birthday bash, where she sang, "Happy Birthday, Mr. President." The discretion and good taste of the 1960s bears no semblance at all to the vulgarity and self-loathing and wanton sensationalism of what we have, sadly, become.

[–] db20db (16208) 7 years ago

Interesting !

[–] MissMargoChanning (6630) 7 years ago

I agree. We never heard or read such things then. Even the rags only printed innuendo.

[–] Catbookss (13664) 7 years ago

Well, um, okay.

What?

[–] R_Kane (15828) 7 years ago

The truth is that Lee Harvey was really John-John's father, which pissed JFK off unbelievablely, so he staged his own assassination, so he could have Oswald framed for it and show the guy who was boss.

[–] actionkamen (23176) 7 years ago

Mind. Blown.

[–] [deleted] 7 years ago

[–] Cookie.L.A. (2117) 7 years ago

Don't you know anything??

[–] BiffGG (662) 7 years ago

Not that I believe it for one second but I can't imagine how they would cross paths and the personalities seem very dissimilar. The story about a SF gentleman's club seems like contrived nonsense at least where JFK is concerned. I have never heard of Oswald being in SF for any length of time. I never had a heavenly vision of JFK to cloud things up but this seems like story telling plain and simple.

[–] R_Kane (15828) 7 years ago

It IS true, however, that JFK had a gay affair. Notorious "swordsmen," like Mick Jagger and David Bowie, get so much poontang that they get curious about what "the other way" feels like. Kennedy's lover wasn't Oswald. It was that charming nightclub emprosario, Jack Ruby. And now you know why Ruby, seemingly out of nowhere, shot and killed Oswald.

[–] Cookie.L.A. (2117) 7 years ago

It's just all so tragic, really. For all three of them.

[–] kspkap (13031) 7 years ago

Oh horse caca!! It's so easy to write garbage like this when all the characters are dead! But, only those people who are "one french fry shy of a Happy Meal" will read this tripe! Same goes for a movie or tv series.

BTW, Lee Harvey Oswald was not a lone gunman, if he was even there. There is doubt to that so-called "fact". Napster (naps) is correct!
