(24,398 posts)Two points: Ruby's whole point of wanting to go to DC was to undergo a lie detector test to prove that he was not involved in any conspiracy to kill Oswald. His final word on the matter, spoken from his hospital bed on 12/19/66, was "there was no one else involved. I acted alone."
Second, I have personally known two people who have died within two months of being diagnosed with cancer. Why is that so hard to believe? The point is that these people had their cancer for some time, but waited so long to get diagnosed that they had little time left. Nothing changed about the disease. The disease doesn't care when you get diagnosed.
The article tries to make it appear that Ruby was in glowing health when suddenly, BAM! - he gets cancer and is dead within a couple of months of contracting the disease. Not true.
Sophistry at its best.
