It's important to realize that there is NO PLACE else but that doorway that Oswald could have been at 12:30 sharp.
He wasn't in the domino room because he was there earlier eating lunch.
And he wasn't in the lunch room because he was there later when Baker arrived. Oswald was still walking through the room when Baker arrived and saw him.
There's no reason to think Oswald was sitting there a while and then got up. Why think that? What would he have been doing? Not eating. Not drinking. Not reading. Not working a crossword puzzle. Not counting holes in the ceiling. You can't assume he was just sitting there by himself doing nothing.
And why would anyone claiming to be an Oswald defender think that he was more likely to sit in the lunch room alone doing nothing rather than be outside in the sun watching President and Mrs. Kennedy ride by? Does "Oswald was weird and eccentric" crap have to dominate the minds of Oswald defenders too?
And Oswald was undoubtedly told to go to that lunch room, and the one who told him was most likely Bill Shelley. Shelley was Army Intelligence and then CIA from its inception in 1947. Then he worked for defense companies, but then, for some reason, he spent the last 13 years working for a company which distributed Dick and Jane books for little kids? Why on Earth would he do that? Why would it interest him to do that? The TSBD was a CIA front company in which book distributing was their cover for other illegal and clandestine activities, as described by William Westin in The Spider's Web: the TSBD and the Dallas plot.
And Shelley lied. He told investigators that he didn't see Oswald at all from 11:50 to after 2:00 at the PD. That was a lie because he certainly saw Oswald in the doorway. Shelley also lied when he said that he was standing way back in the shadows. He was NOT back there; he was down on the steps. You just have to read Billy Lovelady's testimony. Lovelady said that well before the assassination, he looked outside through the glass and saw Bill Shelley and Sarah Stanton on the steps, and so he decided to out there to be with them.
Billy Lovelady: I happened to look on the outside and Mr. Shelley was standing outside with Miss Sarah Stanton, I believe her name is, and I said, "Well, I'll go out there and talk with them, sit down and eat my lunch out there, set on the steps," so I went out there.
You know that Shelley wasn't back in the shadows then. It was a sunny day. It was really nice out. Shelley was surely on the steps. And why would he have wound up back in the shadows later? What for? He wouldn't. He didn't. It was a lie.
Shelley had to be down on those steps because his job was to make sure Oswald did not venture out into Dealey Plaza. Imagine if he had. It would have been a disaster for the conspirators. The fact that Oswald went no farther than that landing is probably due to Shelley being there on the steps.
And then, very likely, at the last second, Shelley told Oswald to go to the lunch room. Was there a commotion over it? There may have been because Dave Wiegman spun around and aimed his camera at the doorway again. Why did he do that? Either he heard something or he saw something, and I mean in the doorway.
I haven't made any Doorman collages in a while, but here is a brand-new one.
You see the perfect match of the right ears, the chins, the mouths, and the overall shape of the face. You see the vee-ish shape of the margin of Oswald's t-shirt, which is a match to Doorman. The long necks match. The hairlines do not match, but I explained that they moved Young Lovelady's hairline over to Doorman. It is the one and only thing they did to "Lovelady-ify" him. Their eyes match. Their slender builds match. That is Lee Harvey Oswald on both sides of the collage. It's a dead ringer.
