Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

Question for bpete: Are you, or are you not, Duncan MacRae? And realize something: if you don't deny it, the default is that you are him. 

Hey, I don't make the rules! I just enforce them. 

Now, bpete is back parsing words again, and this time it's Marrion Baker's words. Baker described Oswald's shirt as a "jacket" but others did as well. And it's understandable because it had the lay of a jacket. 

The way the collar flows into a lapel on the left side is what makes it jacket-like. Shirts don't do that. That is the "lay of a jacket" that I am talking about. 

Now, keep in mind when Belin showed him Commission Exhibit 150, it was this:

How dare they show him that shirt? It looks nothing like Oswald's arrest shirt. It's no wonder that Baker was hesitant to confirm when what they showed up looked so different. Was it even Oswald's shirt? I don't make that assumption. They've been messing with our heads about Oswald's shirt for 50 years. 

The only reliable images of Oswald's shirt are the ones in which it's on his back. Got that, bpete? 

So, forget about that CE 150 shirt, and forget about anything Baker said in comparing Oswald's shirt to it. They did everything they could to hide the way Oswald's shirt really was. Look at them side by side.

So, you really blew it, bpete, assuming that CE 150 was anything that Baker should have recognized from his encounter with Oswald in the lunch room. 

So, the next thing is that he was asked about the actual shirt that Oswald was wearing at the PD, and about that, Baker said:

Baker: He did have on a brown shirt that was out.  I could have mistaken it for a jacket.

Why'd he say that? It's because of what they showed him, CE 150, which didn't look anything like a jacket. But, the garment that Oswald wore most certainly did. They were messing with Baker just like they have been messing with us. Anything but remind people of the true nature of Oswald's shirt. 

Regarding Fritz' notes, there are sound reasons to think that the first rendering, when Oswald told him that he only changed his "britches" was the accurate one, not the second rendering when a shirt was mentioned. Note that no dirty clothes were found corresponding to what Oswald said. 

Furthermore, there is absolutely no doubt that Oswald did not change his shirt: that's because they found his bus transfer ticket in his shirt pocket, which he confirmed and McWatters confirmed. 

And if you are going to start down the road of saying the Dallas police planted the bus ticket and invented the whole story and coached the witnesses etc., then go pluck yourself. That is ridiculous. They didn't start interviewing him until 3:00 PM. They registered the bus ticket into evidence at 4:05. They did not in that one hour of time come to the momentous decision to phony up a fake  bus ride and cab ride and somehow come up with a fraudulent bus transfer ticket. That is preposterous. 

You, the plucking bonehead who thinks God forbid they should have altered the Altgens photo, thinks they concocted a whole big theatrical story about Oswald's odyssey home, including an encounter with his former landlady which included her account of how Oswald had signed her calendar to indicate when he paid the rent which her son ended up selling as a collector's item... and you think they made all that up just to stick Oswald on a bus for 2 blocks?????????????  That is Backass bull shit, and I know you've become his clone, but don't think I have any patience left to give to you about it because I do not. 

You're some piece of work: defending these bastards on every film, every photograph, all of it pure as the driven snow according to you, yet, you want to claim they faked, fabricated, dreamt up a bus and cab ride? You really want to go there? Are you sure? 

Oswald rode the bus and cab. It was his bus ticket. And he admitted it. And that means he did NOT change his shirt. 

Oh, and by the way, these people whom you think would NEVER alter a photograph claimed to find his shirt fibers on the butt of the rifle. So, I guess you admit that was fake too. 

So, you really don't think too much of them, do you? It's just that you think they had one principle that they never violated: thou shalt not alter films and photos. 

But, in the final analysis, the ultimate reason we know that Oswald did not change his shirt is that we can see the perfect match to Doorman. 

 That's Bingo, Buster. Same guy, same shirt, same hand-clasp, same long neck, same notched t-shirt. Oswald!

Now, are you Duncan MacRae or not? Answer the question. If you don't, it's going to escalate.
