That's *your* opinion. I find it very simple, when someone invents facts to
SUPPORT his theory, he's not merely "mistaken", he's lying.
This is really quite simple - let's put the shoe on the other foot... let's
pretend that Mark Lane was "mistaken" about evidence that "proved" a
conspiracy...
do you *really* think that Vincent Bugliosi would merely assert that Mark Lane
was
"mistaken"? Or that Mark Lane *lied*?
You *know* the answer to that question - yet you aren't willing to believe that
Bugliosi simply lied to make his point. You're just going to have to face the
fact
that Bugliosi lied. He didn't simply make a mistake on historical information...
like saying that the limousine's color was 'black'. He made a "mistake" on one
of
the most famous and critical bits of evidence for CONSPIRACY... and you know it.
By the way, you really *should* explain to Henry Sienzant, Axelson, Dale, Kevin,
and any other Warren Commission defenders that I've missed naming, that Bugliosi
was "mistaken"... They all still claim that he was correct.

Because I *DO* understand the difference. Bugliosi could *NOT* have been unaware
of the fact that the original bullet wound *LOOKED* like an entry... there was
simply too much testimony on the topic, as well as the hoopla surrounding the
"Press Conference" that he *must* have known about. Then, on top of the fact
that
he *MUST* have known... he used his 'verbal slip' to make the case that the
bullet
came from the rear... HE BASED HIS ARGUMENTS ON A LIE. It's quite hard to see it
as anything other than an outright lie. You know it, I know it, and intelligent
thoughtful readers know it.
