Bush 41 knew how to do that (so did Reagan, but I'll get bamblasted for saying so).  Yes sir, just deny knowing anything about anything and you'll slide by on everything you ever did wrong.  In the book called family of secrets by russ baker, there is more than just a passing suggestion that bush 41 was involved (somehow) in the murder of jfk - - and I believe it's true from what is well documented in the book.  Everyone should really read it, although this article is not that. 

This article is long to read, but pretty interesting stuff, I must say.
