Anyone want to discuss HARVEY & LEE?

[David Lifton]

David,


I think you should make Lifton answer to that Palmer McBride letter. I think he was being less than honest portraying McBride as consenting to his version of the dates. The McBride letter clearly rejects that and gives details that require a response from Lifton.

Albert:

Have you ever sat down and actually met --and talked with--Palmer McBride?

I did. For hours.

First on the telephone in September, 1994, and then on camera, a few weeks later.

It was after the phone call that I hired a professional film crew to go over the same ground again, and get it all on camera.

John Armstrong then re-entered the picture and did a sales job apparently persuading McBride of the "historical importance" (my quotes) of his original statement, which in fact was simply an error on McBride's part, and then became the so-called "foundation" for this whole two-Oswald hypothesis.

Armstrong also pulled the same stuff with Linda Faircloth, who completely and totally misrepresented the conversation that I had with her.

I already published extracts of what McBride said to me over at the London Forum --years ago.

When McBride sat there, on camera, and --practically ruminating aloud--reaffirmed when it was that he knew Oswald, and related it to his prior job at the Weyerhauser (phonetic) box company, it was pretty obvious it was spring 1956 when he knew Oswald at Pfisterer.

If this matter had been investigated properly back in 1963/1964, and all the employment and appropriate tax records retrieved, there never would have been a "two-Oswald" theory; and there never would have been a John Armstrong running around and lobbying witnesses, and attempting to connect dots that really don't "connect."

Also: who actually wrote the so-called McBride letter?

Did Palmer McBride just sit down one evening and write that himself? Or did he have assistance of some sort?

Does anyone know the answer to that question?

And since when does a witness in a historical situation like this, become such an intense partisan to a particular hypothesis.
