Who debunked Posner’s book? I thought it was dadgum convincing.

Nobody did. The FR claimant to the 'debunking' has made a gratuitous statement with no facts to back it up; take as being worth as much as "I read in a book somewhere," or "I once heard..." Posner's book hasn't been debunked by anyone.

However, if you're interested in a shorter, clearer, and in many ways more convincing read that you can get cheap and is the source of a lot of Posner's ideas, take a look at this little ditty. Conspiracy of One: The Definitive Book on the Kennedy Assassination (Paperback) by Jim Moore.

A gem.

With just one slight change to the chronology--supported by eyewitnesses who testified to the Warren Commission--Moore effectively demolishes all the "magic bullet," "forward recoil/backward recoil," and "Mannlicher clumsiness" objections raised by conspiracy kooks over the years. I wish Posner had given him more credit. This book shouldn't have been ignored.

There was a convention of JFK assassination conspiracy theorists some years back. Large hotel convention room set up. It’s a money making business. When the truth of a commie symp with a rifle and Marine training, supported by ballistics is the simpler explanation, then money can’t be made.

Funny, I thought I had read just about everything on the assassination, and found Posner’s book unique and conclusive. I hadn’t even heard of Conspiracy of One before!

Always learning...

I’ve read both Posner and Moore’s work. I haven’t read Bugliosi’s yet, but plan to. I think I’ve also read every conspiracy screed from “Rush to Judgment” to “Best Evidence.” It’s pretty obvious that Oswald acted alone.
