Questions For Buell Wesley Frazier

[Mark A. Oblazney]

The one that got ever shorter re Buell & Linnie as 'you-show-me yours, I'll-show-you-mine' time loomed ever nearer at the 'kiss my arse/kiss 'n tell' WC hearings

this was your best one heh heh heh

Good over-the shoulder-catch right there.

How tall is Rather compared to Oswald?
Rather wrapped the bag tightly around the barrel, to reduce the size of the visible part. There is no evidence that Oswald did the same. In fact, iirc Randle said Oswald was holding the top of the package which was folded.

Frazier could only have known that Oswald carried the package under his armpit if he actually saw Oswald put it there. If he had seen Oswald's back he couldn't know this detail.

Eric Sevareid of CBS News provided a very interesting and insightful commentary near the end of Part 4 of "The Warren Report" documentary:
[Interesting and insightful to David Von Pein]
 ERIC SEVAREID -- "What fed the conspiracy notion about the Kennedy assassination among many Americans was the sheer incongruity of the affair. All that power and majesty wiped out in an instant by one skinny, weak-chinned little character. It was like believing that the Queen Mary had sunk without a trace because of a log floating somewhere in the Atlantic. Or that AT&T stock had fallen to zero because a drunk somewhere tore out his telephone wires. ....

[Wrong. What fed the doubt was the complete lack of motive, method and opportunity of one ...yes insignificant individual who had no developed sniper skills to pull the job attributed to him]

"And so, three-and-a-half years later, there are people who still think some group of men are living somewhere carrying in their breasts the most explosive secret conceivable....knowledge of a plot to kill Mr. Kennedy.

[A plot to kill JFK was uncovered but not thanks to Eric Sevareid]

"These imagined men supposedly go about their lives under iron self-discipline, never falling out with each other, never giving out a hint of suspicion to anyone else.
[No longer alive I'm sure]

"And nearly three years after the  Warren inquiry  finished its painful and onerous work, there are not only the serious critics who point to the various mistakes of commission or omission....mistakes of a consequence one can only guess at, and of a kind that have probably plagued every lengthy, voluminous official investigation ever staged. There are also people who think the Commission itself was a conspiracy to cover up something.

"In the first place, it would be utterly impossible in the American arena of the fierce and free press and politics to conceal a conspiracy among so many individuals who live in the public eye.

"In the second place, the deepest allegiance of men like Chief Justice Warren, or of John McCloy, does not lie with any president, political party, or current cause. It lies with history....their name and place in history. That is all they live for in their later years.

"If they knowingly suppressed or distorted decisive evidence about such an event as a Presidential murder, their descendants would bear their cursed names forever. The notion that they would do such a thing is idiotic."

Well said, Mr. Sevareid. Very well said.

Huh? The sins of the fathers? Not today Mr Sevareid. Not today.

So you can't explain it. Why am I not surprised.

I'm not surprised that a 34.8" long package was able to have had its profile easily minimized

[Bill Chapman]

If any of you nerds have honestly tried a reconstruction you will find that the package is too heavy to carry strictly in the palm. It forces one to curve the wrist under the bag as Rather is seen doing here. Not an efficient carry method.

To say that Buell never saw Oswald use the left hand simply confirms that he did not possess Xray vision, since Buell was behind Oswald as the little prick hot-footed away to make sure his chauffeur didn't get a full-profile look at the gunbag.

But tucked under the armpit it would fit perfectly. Go figure!

And how would you even know what the weight of the package was? In addition to being a pseudo "artist" and a wanna be psychoanalyst are you pretending to be a clairvoyant of sorts as well?

So, if we assume that Rather did have a rifle in that bag, and Frazier said Oswald held the package in the cup of his hand (which you claim can't be done if there is a rifle in there) haven't you just confirmed that there couldn't have been a rifle in the package Oswald carried?

[John Iacoletti]

What Frazier likely didn't know when Bugliosi asked his leading question is that in order for a 34.8 inch object to not be sticking up over his shoulder, it would have to be sticking out in front of him at a 45 degree angle.  Pretty hard to open a door that way.

Also, Frazier wasn't behind Oswald when he saw him put it up under his arm:

Mr. FRAZIER - He got out of the car and he was wearing the jacket that has the big sleeves in them and he put the package that he had, you know, that he told me was curtain rods up under his arm, you know, and so he walked down behind the car and standing over there at the end of the cyclone fence waiting for me to get out of the car, and so quick as I cut the engine off and started out of the car, shut the door just as I was starting out just like getting out of the car, he started walking off and so I followed him in.

Also, what is the evidence that the CE139 rifle was disassembled and reassembled?  Or ever inside the CE142 bag that you can't even demonstrate was ever in the alleged "dotted-line" location.
