Pretty laughable (as usual). And if you'll note......he had no real answer for the fact he originally presented her testimony as solid gold......and then turned around and started calling her a liar.

Same old benny.

It seems Mr. Anderson WANTS to miss the point.

Of course he does.

He wants to believe that Egerter was lying when she stated that the only purpose of the CI/SIG was to investigate suspect CIA employees, yet was telling the absolute truth in claiming that Oswald wasn't an employee.

Of course, the truth demonstrates that Anderson simply doesn't know what he's talking about.

FIrst of all, Mrs. Egerter never denied that Oswald was a CIA employee... here's the relevant testimony:

Mr. Goldsmith: Do you have any reason to believe that Oswald ever worked in some capacity for CIA?
Mrs. Egerter: No, I have no reason to believe that.
...
Mr. Goldsmith: Is it possible that he worked for the agency and you didn't know about it?
Mrs. Egerter: That is quite possible. I did not know.

"That is quite possible. I did not know."

Once again:

"That is quite possible. I did not know."

Hardly the ringing denial that Anderson envisions...

Of course, she did know... based on her own admission that the only purpose for their department was to investigate CIA employees - she must have known. This is only reasonable and credible. Anderson cannot explain the facts... so he runs from them.
