    “he had flown his plane for years without incident..”

    My guess is just about every pilot who died in a plane crash had flown many times “without incident”….up to the time that they crashed.

    Morons.

    I go out the Reynolds wrap (none of that cheap stuff) adorned my head with three layers of it, secured it in place with two circles of duct tape, and then held the antenna lead to my new digital TV antenna mandated by the FCC.

    If you do all of those things, the suspicious nature of his dead becomes crystal clear.

    I love how so many commenters are calling for Karl Rove’s execution and claiming treason.

    This from the type of folks that A) were likely protesting the execution of Mumia Abu-Jamal and are anti-death penalty in general and B) would not recognize treason even in the confession of one John Walker Lindh.

    So I want to be clear…

    -He was flying on a day when the weather was “less than ideal” for single prop small craft flight.

    -He was “connected” with the GOP,and wanted to “talk” with this one reporter. To be exact, the words the newspaper used was “testify”. Funny, I thought the press corp and the courts usually distanced themselves…

    -The ONLY source for his “coming-out” happens the be the reporter/editor who stands to profit from this story, which was previously unreported, and can no longer be confirmed

    Hmm… Well, that was strong enough to convict Scotter Libby (R), but not strong enough for Rod Blagojevich (D), so it must be true!!!

    It’s good to know he wasn’t crashing all the time.

    Geez, how many conspiracy nuts are there in this country?

    A depressing number. In 2005 I saw a poll in which more than 30% of respondents in New York City believed that the Bush administration either had advance knowledge of the 9/11 attacks or was actually complicit in them.

    Now, look, I know we have some nuts on our side. I know at least one guy who believes to this day that Clinton ordered the Oklahoma City bombing as an excuse to have the UN declare martial law. But all the right wing nuts I’ve ever seen are out on the margins, not the mainstream. I have never seen this kind of en masse divorce from reality anywhere except on the Left.

    This is what happens when you just don’t have the capacity to conduct reasonable thought. I would blame it on his parents for too much coddling, forcing him to play soccer where everyone wins!, allowing him to drop out of college consistently for three years in a row before finally allowing him to move downstairs into the basement and let him pursue his “dream job”.

    This man who passed under a tragic plane crash should be remembered and consolations to his family and friends.

    has been accepted as an authentic COLB for Obama.

    With or without an authentic COLB, Obama is not qualified for POTUS & C-in-C because he had British citizenship at birth.

    But the forged COLB just adds to his audacious Chicago politician dishonesty and disdain for the rule of law. The COLB that is presented as “Obama’s” is no less forgery than the COLB for “Hey! I Be A Forgery!

    ***************************************

    My dad is dead. His plane did not run out of fuel. There were mechanical problems. He flew too low in attempt to somehow fix it. He was going to have to crash land. Traffic control advised him to fly back up at the correct altitude. He attempted to, but then something happened. They expect the wind caught him. And his plane tumbled down. He was coming home because he missed his family. We miss him. He never did anything illegal. I promise you this. He is the most honest person i will ever meet. No one will ever amount up to him. He means more to me than any of you people will understand. Just leave him alone. All this gossip is upsetting my family. Please stop with these theories. We do not care. He is dead. I will never hug him again. He will never see me graduate from high school. He will not walk me down the aisle. I know he will be there, but not the way i had imagined. Everyone please just stop. Please. He did not know any secrets. But HE IS GONE. No alias name or anything. He is gone. forever. I wish that was true. But please just stop everyone.

    One of the basic mathematical rules of safe flying:
    (take-offs + landings)/2 = any even number

    Sometimes an accident is just an accident.

    Other actions where one “incident” is bad:
    alligator wrestling
    bear wrestling
    rattlesnake roundup
    anything preceded by “hey y’all, watch this”

    Now that we know that tin foil is a bad choice, maybe one of those metal colanders would be better. The holes could let in the good waves and the metal would keep out the bad. I would consider it an honor to purchase one for the first moonbat who promises to faithfully wear it every day.

    The interest in Mike Connell stems from his association with a firm called GovTech, which he had spun off from his own New Media Communications under his wife Heather Connell’s name. GovTech was hired by Ohio Secretary of State Kenneth Blackwell to set up an official election website at election.sos.state.oh.us to presented the 2004 presidential returns as they came in.

    If Karl Rove is all powerful, and all knowing, and willing to kill people to protect BushCo.,

    1) How, after making up lies about Saddam having WMDs to justify a war for Halliburton, how could he forget to order some WMDs be left around for inspectors to find and

    2) How did Barack Obama survive a two year campaign, doing a lot of flying in private planes, and then win the election even though Diebold controls the voting machines and will cook numbers for the Bushies?

    Unless, of course, Obama is secretly an agent of the BusH!tler…

To the moonbats sometimes airplanes fall out of the sky either to mechanical failure or pilot error. Having survived 11 years of military aviation performing extremely dangerous maneuvers and flight formations in all types of conditions I discovered that flying in itself is a dangerous profession.

    So let’s see… we have a GOP IT consultant who did contract work for GOP presidential campaigns, and for the WH, who dies in a plane crash. This is supposed to be some Rovian conspiracy over the ‘supposed’ improprieties in Ohio in 2004. Not one shred of evidence has been presented to suppose that this (Ohio 2004) is anything other than a conspriracy. Fast forward to 2008 with all of the noted irregularities over more registered voters in several metropolitan areas than actually lived there, Obama campaign workers busing in ‘voters’ fom out of state to register and vote absentee, non-resident Obama campaign workers registering to vote in key states like Ohio, and last but not least ACORN. With all of that, these people have the audacity to claim a conspriracy over a guys’ tragic death in a plane crash! Give us and Mr. Connell’s family a break and go bury your tin-foil shrouded heads in the sand.

    R.I.P. Mike Connell. May God give peace and comfort to your family.

    The guy flew into icing conditions. That’s the latest unofficial report.

    If that’s the case.. he got himself killed. It doesn’t matter if his single-engine aircraft was equipped with de-ice or anti-ice (there’s a difference). Light planes don’t handle ice well.

    While the details of this crash remain to be divulged, it doesn’t appear to be anything more than a tragic accident that may have resulted from a poor decision by the pilot.

    To all the nut cases claiming otherwise… shut it please. You don’t know what the hell you are talking about.

    All this conspiracy talk got me to wondering. Do you suppose Obama will invite the Rev. Wright to accompany him when he tours the secret laboratory where the AIDS virus was developed? Didn’t the good reverend claim that AIDS was developed by the US government in order to kill black people? If so, then wouldn’t there be a secret lab where this was developed? Just wonderin’

    CWinNY,

    AIDS was developed in Iraq during Saddam’s regime by Haliburton with money personally contributed by Dick Cheney. So there is no government lab to visit.

    Just why in the world do you think we invaded Iraq? ….. to destroy all of the evidence…. Remember the mobile labs that Powell showed us pictures of? AH HA!!! There it is.

    I gotta go back and solder another lead wire in one of the holes of the colander on my head. The Romulans may be sending us another message any time now……..

    Several years ago, I talked to a guy who was able to listen to the actual black box recordings of plane crashes.

    I remember seeing something on TV about a reconstruction of a crash that happened in FL. Don’t remember the date.

    The NTSB determined that the crew was trying to discover why a warning light on the instrument panel was lit. They didn’t think it should have been and spent a considerable amount of time on it. Unfortunately, their focus was on the light and not the ground. They crashed.

    Doubtful. The Bush secret police started destroying them the day after Obama won the elecion. The lack of any evidence whatsoever of the labs is more proof of the ruthless efficiency of the VRWC.

    Despite the fact that you’re 100% wrong on many issues, at least you put forth a reasoned argument and stick around to defend yourself.

    This guy took off, flew uneventfully while enroute, and crashed while landing?

    What exactly could a saboteur have done to only effect the aircraft at the end of the flight (something he would have missed during a preflight walk around)? Or was his aircraft shot down at 1,000 feet in view of hundreds of witnesses?
