Want to know why I am so upset? Arlen Specter argued the “single bullet” theory to the Warren Commission after JFK was assassinated. Do you have any concept of how f’d up that is? I took this class in High School, it was called Physics. Laws of physics prove this asshole’s theory was inaccurate and wrong. In surfing the net (have you guys figured out this whole Internet thing yet??) I came upon several interesting quotes/pieces that have been written about Specter the Pussy. This was put together by some ahole blogger like me (so I am giving him credit for doing the work)
To support the scenario that a lone assassin (Oswald) could fire the purported number of shots within an allotted time frame, the Warren Commission concluded that one of the bullets fired that fateful day hit both President Kennedy and Texas Governor John Connally. This conclusion came to be known as the "single bullet theory." However, given the location of Kennedy's and Connally's wounds, for the "single bullet theory" to be correct, the bullet would have had to change course several times, behaving in the manner shown in the diagram (below left).
In the reenactment photo (below right) Specter, with his pointer in hand, attempts to make the "single bullet theory" appear plausible by deceptively indicating a straight line trajectory for the bullet.
While Specter managed to sell his "single bullet theory" to a majority of the 7 member Warren Commission (4 members concurred, 3 members dissented), he had trouble selling it to a majority of the public. A 2001 Gallup poll found that 81 percent of Americans reject the Warren Commission's conclusions.Eye Witness Testimony:
In Dallas Texas on November 22, 1963, two women, Jean Hill and Mary Moorman were standing on the south side of Elm Street in Dealey Plaza as Kennedy's motorcade passed. They were two of the closest eyewitnesses to President Kennedy when he was struck with the fatal head shot. Jean Hill would later be questioned by Warren Commission attorney Arlen Specter. Hill recalled her encounter with Specter with journalist/author Jim Marrs:"The FBI took me to Parkland Hospital. I had no idea what I was doing there. They escorted me through a labyrinth of corridors and up to one of the top floors of Parkland. I didn't know where we were. They took me into this little room where I met Arlen Specter. He talked to me for a few minutes, trying to act real friendly, then this woman, a stenographer, came in and sat behind me. He had told me that this interview would be confidential, then I looked around and this woman was taking notes. I reminded him that the discussion was to be private and he told the woman to put down her notebook, which she did. But when I looked around again she was writing. I got mad and told Specter, 'You lied to me. I want this over.' He asked me why I wouldn't come to Washington, and I said, 'Because I want to stay alive.' He asked why I would think that I was in danger and I replied, 'Well, if they can kill the President, they can certainly get me!' He replied that they already had the man that did it and I told him, 'No, you don't!'
He kept trying to get me to change my story, particularly regarding the number of shots. He said I had been told how many shots there were and I figured he was talking about what the Secret Service told me right after the assassination. His inflection and attitude was that I knew what I was supposed to be saying, why wouldn't I just say it. I asked him, 'Look, do you want the truth or just what you want me to say?' He said he wanted the truth, so I said, 'The truth is that I heard between four and six shots.' I told him, 'I'm not going to lie for you.' So he starts talking off the record. He told me about my life, my family, and even mentioned that my marriage was in trouble. I said, 'What's the point of interviewing me if you already know everything about me?' He got angrier and finally told me, 'Look, we can even make you look as crazy as Marguerite Oswald [Lee Oswald's mother] and everybody knows how crazy she is. We could have you put in a mental institution if you don't cooperate with us.' I knew he was trying to intimidate me....
He finally gave me his word that the interview would not be published unless I approved what was written. But they never gave me the chance to read it or approve it. When I finally read my testimony as published by the Warren Commission, I knew it was a fabrication from the first line. After that ordeal at Parkland Hospital, they wrote that my deposition was taken at the U.S. attorney's office in the Post Office Building."
Here is some compelling testimony as to why the single bullet theory MAKES NO SENSE:
The above testimony means that Arlen Specter NEVER should have been trusted with any type of responsibility. NONE. He lead the argument in order to protect the political right, and to set himself up for the Presidency. Now that he is as old as oil, and has no shot at becoming a Presidential nominee or let alone President, he flip flops. I cannot wait for his memoirs where he confesses that he never believed in the single bullet theory.
