I read this Op/Ed piece yesterday on yahoo and was astonished that anybody would print such a buch of BS.
I don't back Bush 100% and I am sure that he is something of a puppet of Dick's, but the tale this guys tells is just rediculous.
What do you think?

Wow, what a load. Let's see what could the motivation be for such an inflamatory piece so close to the election. This coupled with the Dems conduct at the man's memorial service... They seem a little pannicked.

How about this for a conspiracy theory. The dems assasinated him -- no wait STAGED the assasination themselves to be able to pin it on the Republicans. Puhleeeze!!!


Did you catch what Jesse Ventura said after the memorial service? "I will never attend the memorial service of another politician during an election year" That man is a class act.

Jesse for supreme ruler of the world!!!

Conspiracy theorists. They've been around since time began. As the article states, there's a good chance that the Dems could hold on to that seat and Mondale hold onto that lead by default, there's also the sympathy vote that may go to the Dems, why would the Republicans ever try such a thing?

There was an eyewitness to the King Air's crash when it was on final. The plane suddenly turned away from the normal approach and wadded itself up on the countryside. This would be typical for a twin engine aircraft that has a wing stall. Why would the wing stall? Because freezing rain was occuring at the time. The King Air is certified for iceing, but, the King Air was low and slow on approach and any accumlation of ice could've disrupted airflow over the wing. Flight is generally done away from ice. Staying in freezing rain can bring down the biggest of aircraft. It just is not possible to heat every surface.

If the Republicans did it, they now have control over the elements. No wonder the Dems are in panic mode.

However, if the Republicans also did this in Missouri, why would they do it again? They lost Missouri. That is why Ashcroft is now in DC.

This coming from the Democratic Party that gave us JFK? The Kennedys could make The Osbournes look like The Cleavers. It's amazing how everyone else is to blame but yourself. Both parties do this and it's starting to get old.

Talk about a lot of B.S.. The report I heard said the plane was on a perpendicular course to the run way, like the pilot was lost. Also, an aircraft that small is not required to carry a flight data recorder or a voice cockpit recorder. "Nixon dirty tricks"? Which party was calling people shortly after the 2000 election ask them if they are sure they voted for the right candidate? Oh, and if you believe the black helicopter crowd, Ron Brown was killed by his own (i.e. Bill Clinton), not his opponents. So I don't see the comparison there. And who's rights have been violated by Bush's war on terrorism? So a thousand illegal alien and other forks that are in our county illegally and the scum bags at camp X-ray? Boo Hoo. My rights haven’t been violated, your rights haven’t and Ted Rall’s certainly haven’t since he still free to write and print garbage like this.


Hey Ted, why don't you stick to drawing you stupid little cartoons and stay out of the op/ed writing business.
