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

My girlfriend Linda just made an interesting observation from a woman's perspective. If Oswald was involved in a torrid love affair with Judyth Baker the summer of 1963, why would he be interested in improving his Russian by using flash cards and borrowing Russian-learning LPs from the library, as JVB claims?

Again, I think it's ridiculous because Oswald was already fluent in Russian- way beyond the point of using flash cards. But even theoretically, it doesn't make sense. He wasn't going back to Russia, and the only one he needed to talk to in Russian was his wife Marina. 

So, in the midst of their torrid love affair, and in the midst of all the clandestine intelligence work they were doing trying to kill Castro and whatnot, why would he devote time to trying to learn Russian? At that point, what did he need it for?  And why didn't it bother Judyth that he was doing that?
