"100% Correct"?

Nino: Since you claim that Robert Welch was "100% correct" but both J. Edgar Hoover and his senior subordinates within the Domestic Intelligence Division arrived at the opposite conclusion about Welch and JBS assertions -- then why do you think Welch and the JBS admired Hoover and the FBI so much? Why did Welch and the JBS explicitly state repeatedly that Hoover was our nation's most knowledgeable, reliable, authoritative expert on the communist movement -- when FBI files and documents reveal that they routinely refute JBS conclusions about individuals and organizations?
