In the previous paragraphs, Mark Lane began listing the real facts surrounding
the
bus driver, McWatters.

"When that part of the case against Oswald collapsed, newspapers which had
previously told of a grinning assassin neglected to publish McWatters'
correction.
More to the point, however, is that while seeking to identify Milton Jones, who
was 16 years of age, McWatters picked out a man of 24 and thereby raised doubts
as
to his powers of observation.

McWatters said that he did not tell the Dallas police that the number two man in
the lineup was the same man who got on his bus. Thinking of young Jones,
McWatters
said that the number two man resembled one of his passengers.

'... I told them [the Dallas police] that there was one man in the lineup was
about the size and the height and complexion of a man that got on my bus, but as
far as positively identifying the man I could not do it.'

The Dallas police prepared a list of the results of the lineups in which Oswald
appeared. Published as part of Commission Exhibit 2003, it notes, 'Cecil J.
McWatters, positive identification'. Yet McWatters told the Commission he made
no
positive identification. Nevertheless, in the words of the Report, 'The
Commission
is satisfied that the lineups were conducted fairly.'"

Mark Lane is pointing out the facts regarding the bus driver, McWatters; and how
the Warren Commission lied about his testimony.

the Commission is "satisfied"? My-oh-my, that's setting the bar pretty
damn low, isn't it?

Didn't Oswald have a bus ticket from the McWatters bus in his pocket?

I guess to you and Lane it means he was never on the bus?

Case CLOSED on Lane's KGB funded idiocy in this matter.

They apparently were "satisfied" with anything that helped them support their
preconceived theory.

And stayed away from anything that didn't...

No as a matter of fact he didn't..... at least not in the shirt pocket
of the shirt he was wearing when he was arrested.

Recall that Mrs Robert's saw "Lee" who was one of her tenants go into
his room at 1:00pm. He was only in his room a couple of minutes and
changed his clothes.

When Lee was arrested in the theater the police damned near tore the
shirt off his back, Photos of him after his arrst show the shirt
hanging limply from one shoulder.

Look at photos of the bus transfer.....It's pristine. Transfers were
made from newsprint ( newspaper paper) If that transfer had been in
Oswald's shirt pocket when he was arrested it would not have remained
uncrumpled or creased.

He might have forgotten to remove the bus transfer from the shirt he
removed in his room, and therefore it was not sujected to the rough
handling it would have received if it had been in his arrest shirt.

Well, these things tend to happen when you pull a gun on the cops and
try to shoot them.

This is simply another case of your hopelessly off the mark
*reasoning* on display.
