The poll was faked by 'The Onion', a spoof site

No wonder you're confused.

Question... What would you call a person who would post a phony spoof from a website that they knew was garbage?

Answer ....  an A-Hole.

OK maybe LHO wasn't a jerk or maybe he was sometimes.... I didn't know him so I am looking around for those who did.
What did they think?
 
Quote
Mr. LIEBELER - Did you have any other contact with Oswald yourself, personally?
Mrs. GARNER - Yes. One time I went for my rent, it was a few days past due, the rent, and I mean, you know; when you let them go they wait too long and they don't ever get it. It was a few days later, I was going around the drive to see about my rent and he was starting out the drive to catch a bus on the corner, and when he saw me he turned around and looked, figured I was coming after the rent. I said, "Oswald, you got the rent? The landlady is coming for the rent." He said, "Yes, I have it."
He was fixing to go to the bus, so he turned around to walk up the drive to go get the money, and I said, "Go on where you have to go; I will get it later," and he just pushed me aside and went by me and went and got the money and handed it to me.
Mr. LIEBELER - Did he actually push you aside physically?
Mrs. GARNER - Yes, just like that, and I called to him and I said, "Never mind; go where you have to go and I will get it later," and he just took me like this and pushed me aside and just went, you know, just went by me like that.
Mr. LIEBELER - He actually laid his hands on you?
Mrs. GARNER - Put his hands on me just like that, and pushed me.
Mr. LIEBELER - Did he say anything?
Mrs. GARNER - He didn't say a thing. He come back and gave me the money and that was it.
Mr. LIEBELER - When was the next time you had any----
Mrs. GARNER - Well, I didn't talk to him any more than that, because I noticed how he was, wouldn't answer you when you say good morning or good evening, hello or good morning, so I just never bothered.
Does this show he was a jerk? Yup.
Does it mean he was an assassin? Nope.
Now a-days one could be arrested for assault.
I myself-have had more run-ins with landladies than I would ever care to dwell on....my strong suggestion---Buy your own home.

68%
Why not 68.5 or 67.5?
Oswald was a jerk and the onion web site people are jerks.

"Oswald was a jerk"

Lee was a sucker   ( aka, a patsy)...who trusted those that had shiny badges, and credentials ...credentials of organizations that he thought he could trust.

If Lee Oswald was a "jerk".... then there are tens of thousands of us who are also "jerks" because we believed in our country and answered the call to defend our  nation and beliefs

"Now a-days one could be arrested for assault."

That's true IF IF the landlady could PROVE to the police that the assault actually happened.   You're taking up the landlady's story without a scintilla of evidence, that the story is true.   Many folks offered disparaging tales about Lee Oswald AFTER  the newspapers had smeared him.   Those folks simply wanted to help put the noose around the neck of his corpse.   Those folks would be no different than the animals who dragged our soldiers bodies through the streets of Mogadishu.

WASHINGTON?More than 54 years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, a Gallup poll published Thursday revealed that 68 percent of Americans now believe Lee Harvey Oswald acted like a total a-hole.

?Remarkably, our polling data reveal that more than two-thirds of U.S. citizens are now convinced that Oswald acted like a complete pr*ck in planning and carrying out the brutal shooting of JFK,? said Gallup CEO Jim Clifton, adding that of those surveyed, nearly half of respondents were sure or very sure that Oswald acted like a ?huge fck'n jerk? in Dallas, attributing the shift in public perception to mounting evidence showing that camping out in a sniper nest in the Texas Book Depository with the express intention of murdering the 35th U.S. president was ?a total d*ck move.? ?Additionally, 11 percent said they initially gave Oswald the benefit of the doubt, but now believe with absolute certainty that this guy was just a jack*ss, pure and simple.

Interestingly, 7 percent now say there might have even been a second a-hole involved in the shooting.? The survey also revealed that 18 percent of Americans were confident Oswald had acted ?pretty damn cool.?

Bill,

Knowing that Iacoletti will inevitably ask this question, let me beat him to the punch:  "How do you know Lee Harvey Oswald even had an A-hole?"

You have absolutely no proof.

You're a liar.

You just made that up.

You provide continuous proof that this forum certainly has one.
