The sword cuts both ways and those who insist that there was absolutely no other explanation for Chicago than a set-up ruse for Dallas have to also prove their point by equal standard. They have show that there was no way Oswald's cover would be blown or that he might somehow become incapable of carrying-out his role in Dallas. This thread was understood at one point, before it became an excuse for open hostility and abuse, to be 'hypothetical'. Well then those who boast such a superior position as to be infallible in their suggestion Chicago was absolutely and unquestionably a ruse and no other thing, well they have to show how it was impossible for Oswald to become ineligible. They can't do that because anything was possible. Oswald could have been exposed or even killed prior to Dallas. What would have happened then? Since we are still taking advantage of the invitation to hypothesis referred to by the thread's creator with enthusiasm earlier in the thread, what if Oswald was exposed? What if his double went too far with the commie stuff and got him fired from the Depository? There's a myriad of possibilities that can't be chuckled-off by any serious observer. What if Oswald was taken-out and Vallee's rifles weren't discovered?
To me it's more than obvious that the total corruption displayed by the Warren Commission and Johnson was certainly more than adequate to cover-up any Chicago assassination just as well as any Dallas plot. Sorry, I don't think the point has been answered. That is, that Chicago could have been both a ruse and stand-by alternative AND a real plot if needed. There's nothing to preclude this, no matter how much some may ridicule it.
