    Pilot killed in Ohio crash was GOP consultant

    COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) -- An Ohio pilot who died in a small plane crash was a Republican media consultant who helped operate campaign Web sites for President Bush and former presidential nominee John McCain.

    Forty-five-year-old Michael Connell of Akron was killed Friday when his plane crashed near a vacant house in a rural area of Uniontown, about 10 miles southeast of Akron. He was attempting to land the aircraft at the nearby Akron-Canton Airport.

    Connell was the CEO and founder of Cleveland-based New Media Communications, which built campaign Web sites for Bush and McCain, according to the company's Web site. The site says the company also worked with the Ohio Republican Party, the Republican National Committee and other political groups.

    No one on the ground was injured. The plane did not have any passengers.

    I will never have a private aircraft of my own, nor will I enter anyone elses. I'm pretty sure that doing either comes with ~90 fatality rate.

    Yeah, who's ever heard a news story about anyway with a private aircraft who didn't die, anyway? Certainly that means there are none.

    No silly, that means that there are only 10%. Scientifically proven, even!

    This is also the same guy who recently got a subpeona to testify in the Ohio vote fraud case. He has/had information that could implicate the Bush Administration .. now, like many others who has such information, God comes along works his mystery.

    What a coincidence.

    Perhaps God just has bad timing.

    One down many more to go.

    I wonder how many loyalists who get subpeonaed will end up dead?

    LOL. This is some funny stuff.

    It is exactly the same thing as those people who say the Clintons kill off all their adversaries.
    Excellence is an art won by training and habituation. We do not act rightly because we have virtue or excellence, but rather we have those because we have acted rightly. We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act but a habit.
    - -- Aristotle

    Believe nothing on the faith of traditions, even though they have been held in honor for many generations and in diverse places. Do not believe a thing because many people speak of it. Do not believe on the faith of the sages of the past. Do not believe what you yourself have imagined, persuading yourself that a God inspires you. Believe nothing on the sole authority of your masters and priests. After examination, believe what you yourself have tested and found to be reasonable, and conform your conduct thereto.

    They did pretty well, there is a long list. I've seen it time and again. I've even seen you talk about how stupid it is to take that list and then assume that the Clintons are personally culpable and explain how it is foolish to take it in that direction.

    The difference here? Only partisanship.

    I don't give a rats ass about the Democratic Party .. nor do I think there is anything the Clinton's won't do .. partisanship has nothing to do with my perspective on this.
