This is quite the startling coincidence... But what does it mean? Anything? It's easy to start wildly speculating conspiracy stories, but does anyone know anything that makes this ESPECIALLY intriguing? I'm dying for more info if anyone has it. Such as: who were the passengers, what was the Ecuador conference about, what are the consequences of delaying it, etc?

1. I don't want anything to happen to HIM

3. If I said what I was thinking I'd probably be put in

jail. So I'll kindly pass on that one. }(

4. Conspiracy Theory #1

It was a failed attempt by W to get even with Poppy for his glowing speech at the dedication of the Clinton Library at Little Rock last week, but the pilots lost control of the plane too soon.
Oedipal envy at its worst.

6. Hit a lightpole

on runway approach in the fog. Doesn't sound like anything sinister, coincidental, or intriguing to me.

[Spinzonner]

8. The lightpole was probably erected by some union members

ergo ...

7. Lately only Dems/Liberals die like that.

I doubt Poppy pissed of Generalissimmo el Busho...

9. Conspiracy Theory #2

Strange that both father and son would be in So. America at the same time. Per haps they are testing the waters, meeting with regional leaders and trying to drum up support for a U.S. invasion of Venezuela. Ecuador is important to the U.S., their official currency is the U.S. dollar.

10. Karma Avoided

...Nuff said!

Just like everything the BFEE does, the Avoid Everything, even Karma

11. who cares what happen to that moron

he already made the mistake destroying this country, he didn't get the big snip early enough to prevent chimp's birth.

[Joe Chi Minh]

12. Pass.

[Endangered Specie]

13. Not to worry, he probably has his own personal parachute...

and would have been the FIRST one out.

14. Thoughts? OK, this thread is flamebait (n/t)

[prof_science]

16. Indeed. Flamebait or fishing...

...by Mr. Secret Agent petepillow.

Thoughts? A friggin plane crashed. Considering the amount that your average heavy hitter flies in a lifetime, it's bound to happen. Not a coincidence.
