I did read your exchange with KG9 Kid. As evidence is presented refuting various multiple shooter theories, you seem to be grasping at thinner and thinner straws.

I fail to see any solid evidence presented that refute the misalignment facts surrounding Specters single bullet theory.

There is nothing ?magic? about where the bullet struck Kennedy and then Connelly.

There is a ~lot~ of controversy about were the first bullet struck JFK.
The autopsy was so botched, that it's likely we will never know.
Incidentally, aren't some autopsy photos still classified?

The two men were not sitting at the same height, and they were not sitting exactly in the same posture facing precisely forwards at all times either. If you look at the films and photographs you will see both men looking and turning slightly sometimes to the right, sometimes to the left, to wave to people in the crowd. Connelly seems to me to have done more of this than Kennedy, as it appears to me he was enjoying it more and, as a local politician, perhaps might expect to recognize someone occasionally in the crowd.
So Connelly was facing, and turned slightly to the right when the shot that hit both men came. Why is that so hard to believe?

His turning is not. Unfortunately for Specters theory, it still does line up "both" men or their wounds.

As to whether the shirt bunched up together with the jacket or, as you claim, should have been stuck to his body

I claim tailored shirts, tied at the collar, do not ride up in perfect alignment with jackets. You do?

while only the jacket bunched up, keep in mind it is MORE likely to bunch up with the jacket (as opposed to be stuck to his body by the sweat) in the case of someone wearing a corset which would separate the shirt from his sweaty skin, and allow the shirt to bunch up more easily.

We can both speculate endlessly about sweat & corsets etc. Shirts w/ties simply do not bunch to match jackets. - Occam's Razor.

I don't know what to tell you other than that it has happened personally to me on countless occasions, riding in the back of a taxi or other car. When I get out I find that that my suit jacket and shirt have ridden up such that when I get out of the car I have had to tuck the back of my shirt back in. (And I don't even wear a corset!)

I can't believe I'm the only one this has ever happened to.
