Question #1: What are the odds against chance that the only U.S.
political leaders to have been assassinated in the past 100 years
were Democratic or Progressive?
(All biographical and Anthrax Attacks information excerpted from
Wikipedia entries.)
John F. Kennedy (May 29, 1917 – November 22, 1963), the 35th
President of the United States.
Robert F. Kennedy (November 20, 1925 – June 6, 1968), a United
States Senator from Massachusetts and candidate for the 1968
Democratic presidential nomination.
Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968), leader
of the American Civil Rights Movement and peacemaker.
Question #2: What are the odds against chance that the only U.S.
political leaders (or heirs apparent) to die in plane crashes at
pivotal moments in political history in the past 50 years were
Democrats?
Thomas Hale Boggs, Sr. (February 15, 1914 – October 16, 1972), a
Democratic member of the U.S House of Representatives from Louisiana
and House Majority Leader. While still Majority Leader, in October,
1972, he was aboard a twin engine Cessna 310 with Congressman Nick
Begich on the way to a fundraiser when it disappeared during a
flight from Anchorage to Juneau, Alaska. Begich's aide and the pilot
were the only others on board. The plane presumably crashed and was
never found.
Mel Carnahan (February 11, 1934 – October 16, 2000), was Governor of
Missouri from 1993 to 2000. He died in a plane crash during a
campaign for the U.S. Senate, weeks before the election, after which
he was elected posthumously to the office. His opponent was U.S.
Senator John Ashcroft, later U. S Attorney General from 2001-2005 in
the administration of U.S President George W. Bush.
Paul Wellstone (July 21, 1944 – October 25, 2002), was a two-term
U.S. Senator from Minnesota. A Democrat, he served in the Senate
from 1991 until his death in a plane crash on October 25, 2002. His
wife, Sheila, and daughter, Marcia, also died in the crash.
Wellstone's death came just 11 days before his potential re-election
in a crucial race to maintain Democratic control of the Senate.
Question #3: What are the odds against chance that only Democratic
leaders in the U.S. Senate received, or were the intended recipients
of, weapons grade, aerosolized anthrax in the 2001 Anthrax Attacks?
Tom Daschle (born December 9, 1947), was a U.S. Senator from South
Dakota and the Senate Majority Leader. He is a member of the
Democratic Party. He was defeated on November 2, 2004. On October 9,
2001, Daschle's office received a letter containing the highly
lethal Ames strain of weapons-grade anthrax bacteria. Many of his
staffers were diagnosed with inhalation anthrax and the Congress was
closed during Senate consideration of the Patriot Act which was
signed into law by President George W. Bush on October 26, 2001. A
total of twenty-two people died in the attacks.
Patrick Leahy (born March 31, 1940) is the senior United States
Senator from Vermont. He is a member of the Democratic Party and
Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. Leahy was one of three
Democratic Senators targeted in the 2001 anthrax attacks. The
anthrax letter containing weapons-grade anthrax bacteria was
intercepted before it reached his office.
Russell Feingold (born March 2, 1953) is a U.S. Senator from the
state of Wisconsin. He has served as a Democratic member of the U.S.
Senate since 1993. Several of Senator Feingold's staffers were
diagnosed with weapons-grade inhalation anthrax bacteria. Feingold
was the only senator to vote against the Patriot Act when first
voted on in 2001.
Question #4: What are the odds against chance that the only TV news
outlets targeted in the 2001 Anthrax Attacks were ones accused of
being "liberal" by some elements of the political right in the
United States?
ABC News received an anthrax letter dated September 18, 2001,
exactly one week after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
NBC News received an anthrax letter dated September 18, 2001,
exactly one week after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
CBS News received an anthrax letter dated September 18, 2001,
exactly one week after the September 11, 2001 attacks.
