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

Backes, you are an utter fool. You have no idea what constitutes a rational argument. 

First, you point to the possibility that Whaley was murdered. I don't object to considering his death suspicious. But, it's not a ball you can pick up and run with- as proof that Whaley was given a phony story to tell. He was killed in an accident in which an 83 year old man also died in a head-on collision, where the 83 year old man was driving and crossed the median  And the passenger riding with Whaley was also critically injured. 

Again, you can note it; you can add it to the list as a suspicious death; but you don't get to use it as a talking point- as concrete proof that Whaley was "manipulated" to tell a phony story.  Forget it, Backes. 

But, let's get to the essence of Backes' stupid argument. He said:

"People were easily manipulated into telling a story that Dallas police and other law enforcement wanted told to back them up. McWatters, Whaley, and Bledsoe were manipulated into telling stories that weren't true."

Wow! Talk about saying something without explaining a thing! "Manipulated" into "telling stories that weren't true"??? Exactly how? Doesn't it come down to "tell it or else"? 

Well, we can shorten that a bit because that a story that you tell that isn't true is a LIE. Whether it's your lie or someone else's lie, it's still a lie. So, they were manipulated into telling lies. 

How in God's name could the Dallas Police manipulate someone to do that, Backes? I'm asking here for a script. I want to know exactly how it went down. 

For instance, Mrs. Bledsoe came in voluntarily. SHE SOUGHT THEM OUT; THEY DIDN'T SEEK HER OUT. And we know, officially, what she told them, that she was riding the bus, and Oswald got on for a couple of blocks, and then he got off. 

Now, according to Backes, that wasn't her real story, that she must have come in with another story that was very different, but that they "manipulated" her into telling THEIR story, which was that one. 

(Note: at times, the Idiot Backes has questioned the very existence of Mary Bledsoe. That's right! I'm serious!  And it means that he has to question the very existence of her lawyer too because she had one at her side during her WC testimony. Nice touch of the WC to not only make Mary Bledsoe up but her lawyer as well.)

So, what story did Mary Bledsoe have to tell? I mean: what did she really come in to tell them? Do you have any idea, Backes? You haven't even thought about it, have you? You want to know why? It's because you are a dumb pluck, and thinking doesn't become you. 

And frankly, I am not going to venture as to what you think she actually came in to tell them about encountering Oswald. It did have to do with Oswald, right? Or do you figure she came in to pay her son's parking ticket? Let's just call her story X. 

Detective Fritz: Thank you for coming in, Mrs. Bledsoe. I've listened to what you've had to say about encountering Oswald in the manner of X, whom you recognized from having rented  a room to him in the past. But, we are very sure that something else happened. We now know that Oswald got on a bus, the Marsalis line, #1213, and that's what he did minutes after the assassination. So, instead of telling Story X, we would like you to say that you briefly encountered Oswald on this bus. Do you think you could do that for us? 

Mrs. Bledsoe: What? But, I don't know anything about that. I don't claim to have seen Oswald on a bus. I claim to have seen him at X. So, how can I say that I saw him on a bus? I wasn't on any bus with Oswald. 

Detective Fritz: We can provide the details, Mrs. Bledsoe. It's just a simple statement. I'm telling you that it will help to resolve the case and bring justice for President Kennedy. You want that, don't you? 

Mrs. Bledsoe: Yes, of course, but I don't think I can do that. I'm not a very good liar. Do you think you could get someone else? 

Detective Fritz: Well, you happen to be his ex-landlady, so you make a convincing witness. You had the unique ability to recognize him. After all, at that point, his image had not been broadcast. No one else on the bus had the ability to recognize him at the time- for who he was. They may have connected the dots later after seeing him on the News. But, you had the unique ability to finger him as Oswald in real time. So, we need you. 

Mrs. Bledsoe: Well, I am in shock. I never thought anything like this could happen. I just came in to tell what I know, to tell what I experienced- what I saw happen- and I never dreamed I would be told what to say. I'm afraid that I am very uncomfortable with this, and I want to speak to my lawyer. 

Is that about how it went down, Backes? I'm doing the best I can here. But, it's your scenario, not mine. And was it similar with Whaley because he was just a cab driver who reported to his supervisor that he had transported Oswald. Or, was it more like this:

Detective Fritz: I know you are surprised to have been pulled over in your cab and brought in to the police station, Mr. Whaley, but there is an important civic reason for it. You are not in any trouble, and we want you to relax about that. 

Wm Whaley: Whoah! That's a relief! I was scared there for a while. So, what is this about?

Detective Fritz: Well, Mr. Whaley, or may I call you Bill? 

Wm Whaley: Sure, that's fine. Bill it is. 

Detective Fritz: Well, Bill, it so happens that we need a cab driver. Where were you between 12:30 and 1:00?

Wm Whaley: I was making a run to the airport, actually. 

Detective Fritz: Well, we want to change that. We want to make it that you were at the Greyhound Station, and a man, Lee Harvey Oswald, the man who killed President Kennedy, asked you for a lift to his room on Beckley. 

Wm Whaley: What? What are you talking about? 

Detective Fritz: Bill, relax. This is standard police procedure. Sometimes we do this kind of thing. Now listen: you gave Lee Harvey Oswald a ride home. Comprende? You're not in trouble, but you're going to be if you don't cooperate with this.

Wm Whaley: I've got to sit down. I can't believe this is happening. I've never done anything like this in my life. 

Detective Fritz: Relax, Bill, because I have done it before, and we will set you up with a narrative that you can easily learn and recite. The main thing is that you've got to start believing it. You've got to embrace it as YOUR STORY. And in the end, it will become your story. Trust me. 

Wm Whaley: I just don't know. I just don't know. I just don't know. 

Is that plausible? Or perhaps you think I wasn't being fair to you, Backes? Perhaps you had a different idea? Then, for pluck's sake, write down your own Gawd-awful script and get it posted, you worthless buffoon.  

Did you really think you just had to say that witnesses were "manipulated" to tell "stories that weren't true" and that would suffice? That it would establish something? Well, it doesn't suffice, and the only thing it establishes is that you are the dumbest, most brainless idiot to ever claim to be a JFK researcher.

Chit for brains, chit for brains, that's all you've got, Backes, hapless lumbering fool that you are. You're a joke.
