Letter by Oswald Is Found With Late Senator’s Papers
By JAMES BARRON
Published: November 14, 2007

The box had sat untouched in the attic of a Washington house until recently, when the sale of the house forced some cleaning out, some poking around in long-overlooked places.

Inside the box was a manila file folder headed: “Lee Harvey Oswald.”

Inside the folder was a handwritten letter that Oswald had sent from Russia, complaining that the Soviet Union would not grant him an exit visa to the United States. It was addressed to Senator John Tower of Texas, who had lived in the house with his second wife in the 1980s.

The other items in the folder are all typewritten — letters from Mr. Tower to the State Department, letters from the American consul in Moscow to Oswald, letters from the State Department to Mr. Tower, and brief memorandums from Mr. Tower’s staff after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy as Mr. Tower defended himself against the impression that he had helped clear the way for Oswald’s return to this country.

A Texas company plans to open an online auction of the items, perhaps as early as today. The company, EasySale, maintains that the letters are originals, not copies like the ones that are among Mr. Tower’s papers at Southwestern University in Georgetown, Tex. A handwriting expert hired by the company to examine the Oswald letter concluded that the tight script was Oswald’s.

1. He wrote his Senator.

Everybody has two. I bet he wrote both, and his representatives too.

2. K&R for chipping away at the truth...n/t

[TnDem]

3. What truth?

Oswald wrote to his Senator to ask for help to return to the US because the Soviets were slow-walking him. Big crap? It's nothing you or I wouldn't do.

The only thing significant about this was someone now has a handwritten letter from Oswald that is worth enough to probably pay their mortgage off.

Lee Harvey Oswald still shot JFK alone.

4. Oh yeah...

and 18 muslim terrorists were able to infiltrate American airlines and air space and evade FBI scrutiny without any help from the inside..:eyes: The 9/11 Commission report (forget about those pesky pages the Saudis had redacted), just like the Warren Report is all encompassing, case closed. So sayeth Poppy Bush, so it must be true.

It's significant because these are documents related to Lee Harvey Oswald which have apparently not been publicized before. Who knows how many other documents are out there?

BTW, Lee Harvey Oswald may have been the lone shooter, but I highly doubt he acted all alone.

5. No, he needed the super duper extra magic bullet

...that was invented by the Republican "conscience of the Senate" Arlen Specter.

[MrCoffee]

9. Specter invented the magic bullet? omgz, this is hugh!!!11!

[closeupready]

6. Didn't Kissinger call the Warren Report "the biggest fraud perpetrated on the American people"

or something like that? What did he mean by that, if not that there were other actors besides Oswald?

There was an article about him in last month's Vanity Fair where I read something like that.

7. The Warren Report..

signed sealed and delivered by Gerald R. Ford, later to become President of the U.S., with quite an interesting staff: his Chief of Staff was Donald Rumsfeld, his senior White House advisor Dick Cheney, and his CIA Director was George H.W. Bush.

"All four men had been part of the Nixon Administration during the Watergate scandal, which had involved numerous veterans of C-Day, including some linked to the Mafia…..” (from Ultimate Sacrifice by Thom Hartmann)

Flash years forward to 9/11/01. Who do we have here? Donald Rumsfeld, Secretary of Defense, Dick Cheney V.P. and George W. Bush (son of H.W.) President.

I'm sure it's all just crazy coincidence...:think:

[hlthe2b]

11. I believe Nixon said that...

in recently released transcripts.

[closeupready]

12. Oh, right, my mistake.

n/t

[seemslikeadream]

10. And Buzzy Krongard didn't make any money off 9/11 or

work for Blackwater and his brother didn't know

[BornagainDUer]

8. Poppy was working on Towers campaign in Nov. 1962, and

Tower went down in a small plane crash in the eighties.

[mzteris]

13. there's that "small plane crash" again

how many before it's no longer "coincidence", eh?

[Virginia Dare]

14. That Bush family and those crazy coincidences...

funny how when really bad things are happening in this country, the Bush family doesn't seem to be too far from the center.
