Anyone here have a morbid fascination with Lee Harvey Oswald?

Remember, according to Norman Mailer ("Oswald's Tale"), LHO's "mom" slept with, and bathed her boys until they were 18. LHO also had a "practice" assassination. That was April 1963. With the Manlicher carbine. General Edwin Walker. "POW!" Missed. Edwin Walker, Turtle Creek Blvd. Lucky ducky. LHO, posing with guns (same day).

2. I don't know if I have a morbid fascination, but...

whenever Oswald's name comes up, it raises so many questions about how he wound up in THAT window, on THAT day.
I mean...his life had taken so many strange and inexplicable twists and turns leading up to that moment that you really have to stop and say, WTF?

3. there is a very good book on the subject at

http://www.jfkresearch.com/
John Armstrong's book
"Harvey & Lee: How the CIA Framed Oswald".



It is about the two Oswalds and very very well researched. email the site owner about ordering it. It is around $40 with CD.

4. General Edwin Walker? that name rings a bell to me

I think I read he was connected to the John Birch society.

5. LHO bought the carbine to "pop" Walker.

Stalked him and shot at him, all documented in the Warren Commission Report. Happened in April 1963. Read it and weep.

On edit: Sorry, Kleeb. You are so right. But the John Birch Society was the lesser of evils. General Walker was drummed out of the Army for giving anti-negro speaches, in full uniform at colleges like U. of Mississippi, Oxford. He was a KKK'er without the sheet. Walker was a zealot too, and that un-did him. His zealotry finally crossed the line of his extremely overt homosexuality. Bottom line: Queer as a $13-dollar bill. Strange, queer General Walker, was finally arrested, at the age of about 83, for soliciting homosexual sex in a restroom at Reverchon Park in Dallas in the early 80s. That's it. Look it up.
