if you haven't read this, you really should. he just eviscerates Arlen Specter's defense of the single bullet fantasy.

read his interview with him, in which Specter, captain of the Yale debate team, is reduced to a stammering buffoon, while trying to reconcile the position of the the back/throat wounds on our president's body with the location of the bullet holes in his shirt. it would be very amusing material, were it not the subject the destruction of US democracy at the hands of monsters.

....Was Specter saying there was no inconsistency between the Commission’s location of the wound and the holes in the clothing?

Specter’s exact response, including his hesitancies, as recorded: “No, not at all. That gave us a lot of concern. First time we lined up the shirt...after all, we lined up the shirt....and the hole in the shirt is right about, right about the knot of the tie, came right about here in a slit in the front....”

But, I asked, where in the back did it hit Kennedy?

“Well, the back hole, when the shirt is laid down, comes....aah....well, I forget exactly where it came, but it certainly wasn’t higher, enough higher to...aah....understand the....aah....the angle of decline which....”

Was it lower? Was it lower in the slit in the front?

“Well, I think that....that if you took the shirt without allowing for its being pulled up, that it would either have been in line or somewhat lower.”

Somewhat lower?

“Perhaps. I....I don’t want to say because I don’t really remember....”


Fonzi follows up with a discussion of the mysterious Maurice Bishop, of whom it's thought by many to be David Atlee Phillips, and who Bugliosi contends never existed.
