Nope. A denial is not a response.

What's wrong with the truth?

Again, what's wrong with the truth?

Are you seriously asserting that the CIA was truthful in this case?

Since you've been unable to cite anything that isn't simply a pro-forma denial, my statement stands.

The CIA was DEATHLY AFRAID that the facts would come out showing Oswald to be a low-level intelligence asset.

Indeed, he was on the HT/Lingual list - which you CANNOT explain away... Oswald was of EXTREME interest to U.S. intelligence agencies.
