In the early 1980's, dissatisfied with the various interpretations of the evidence I was reading in conspiracy books, I decided to research it from the top. I purchased a set of the Warren Commission volumes from the "Presidents Box Bookshop" and a copy of the HSCA volumes from the Government Printing Office. I read through all the testimony, and found, to my surprise, that the testimony was more often than not twisted beyond recognition by the conspiracy books. I ultimate flipped 180 degrees by the mid-1980's to believe Oswald killed Kennedy alone and unaided. I am open to conversion back, but it's not going to take the same old BS claims echoed here that you read in conspiracy books. I already know the problems with those claims. 

This is actually a common assertion by believers... yet when challenged, they ABSOLUTELY REFUSE to give any examples of "testimony was more often than not twisted beyond recognition by the conspiracy books."

And when provable examples of lies told by the Warren Commission Report about their own collected testimony - these very same believers run for the hills.

The "hidden" clipboard is a good example for Henry... who quite desperately maintains that there's nothing wrong with the Warren Commission twisting testimony as dramatically as they did in this case.

Why can't believers tell the truth?

Personally, I'd prefer Henry to remain a believer, along with Dale, Debunker, Mogul and R. Anderson.
