Assassinated
Hillary wants to be on the VP ticket so that she dispels the notion that the Clintons are sabotaging the campaign and so that she can also go out there and really be the star. She’d be the star because she’ll be the one bringing excitement to it. And, by the way, she’ll get all kinds of criticism and the Republicans will launch all they’ve got at her, and she’ll endure that. They know that they’re pretty confident Kerry is going to lose and if Kerry wins there’s always Fort Marcy Park. So they’re rolling the dice on this.
So says Rush Limbaugh, references being to Vince Foster.
I don’t know who has these notions that the Clintons are sabotaging the campaign, btw. Still, the Clintons may just have Kerry assassinated if it looks like he’s going to win…
… and that brings Hillary Clinton, the woman who’s not going to be the vice presidential pick but a lot on the right continue to insist will be…
… because they want her to be president. I don’t want Hillary Clinton to be president, but Rush Limbaugh and Dick Morris sure do.
On the other side, there are those who believe that Paul Wellstone was assassinated. A letter to the Progressive Magazine put it, While you were writing a fucking eulogy to Wellstone, Alternet and World Socialist Web was raising the issue of his possible assasination. As usual, you’re not too swift on what the public is concerned about.
Coast to Coast guest-host, Ian Punnett, (tangant factoid alert: he’s called “God-boy” by his detractors), did a show entertaining the possibilities.
Amusing. Sure Wellstone was assassinated. But he was assassinated by Clinton, to get the old hacks of the Council on Foreign Relations in power… (or, I suppose, Norm Coleman is a safe man for the power-elite). Hey! You have to go beyond raw party-line politics here… Michael Ruppert…:
The day after the crash I received a message from a former CIA operative who has proven extremely reliable in the past and who is personally familiar with these kinds of assassinations. The message read, “As I said earlier, having played ball (and still playing in some respects) with this current crop of reinvigorated old white men, these clowns are nobody to screw around with. There will be a few more strategic accidents. You can be certain of that.”
At any rate…
If John Kerry dies before the election, is the optimum term “Vince Fostered” or is “Wellstoned”? Does it depend on the circumstances?
