Michael Connell, the Bush IT expert who has been directly implicated in the rigging of George Bush's 2000 and 2004 elections, was killed last night when his single engine plane crashed three miles short of the Akron airport. Velvet Revolution ("VR"), a non-profit that has been investigating Mr. Connell's activities for the past two years, can now reveal that a person close to Mr. Connell has recently been discussing with a VR investigator how he can tell all about his work for George Bush. Mr. Connell told a close associate that he was afraid that George Bush and Dick Cheney would "throw [him] under the bus."
A tipster close to the McCain campaign disclosed to VR in July that Mr. Connell's life was in jeopardy and that Karl Rove had threatened him and his wife, Heather. VR's attorney, Cliff Arnebeck, notified the United States Attorney General , Ohio law enforcement and the federal court about these threats and insisted that Mr. Connell be placed in protective custody. VR also told a close associate of Mr. Connell's not to fly his plane because of another tip that the plane could be sabotaged. Mr. Connell, a very experienced pilot, has had to abandon at least two flights in the past two months because of suspicious problems with his plane. On December 18, 2008, Mr. Connell flew to a small airport outside of Washington DC to meet some people. It was on his return flight the next day that he crashed.
On October 31, Mr. Connell appeared before a federal judge in Ohio after being subpoenaed in a federal lawsuit investigating the rigging of the 2004 election under the direction of Karl Rove.

Mr. Connell told a close associate that he was afraid that George Bush and Dick Cheney would "throw [him] under the bus."
Well, he’s dead now, so he can be brought in as mastermind of the conspiracy who was killed to keep him quiet.
It’s more convenient than accusing him when still alive.
The FBI’s handling of Jewell vs the Amerithrax suspect shows that they learned the easier path.
I am so sorry to have to laugh at a news item related to someone’s death, but in this case the temptation is nearly irresistible.
Condolences to Mr. Connell’s family, despite the ridiculous nature of the story.
Also, Cheney is an alien - from the planet Neyche (get it?)
No, maybe we should check Factcheck.org? /SAC
I didn’t get past the first sentence. You’ve gotta be kidding me. A several Bush insiders have already sold him out for their 15 minutes of fame and short-term cash, so he’s going to start whacking people two weeks before he’s done with his 2nd term? That makes a hell of a lot of sense—NOT.
Oh I get it. They won’t investigate the numerous bodies left behind by the Clintons or the role of ACORN and the press in helping Hussein win the election but Bush..yes, we all know he’s to blame for everything from the Titanic to 9/11.
For those of us who don’t know: what is BDS?
Notify API immediately
This will throw the loony left into a tizzy.
Assuming the tell all book was coming, why would Bush want to kill him? All of the other traitors that wrote tell all books are alive and well in their disgrace.
yawn.
It’s all over DU, Kos, HuffandBlow and the rest of the nutroots. Did they not hear that Mr. Rove don’t work there no more? Was he threatening him with his weather machine? LOL
Whoever wrote that needs to lay off the crack pipe.
I thought this guy was working for Al Gore anyway.
BDS is “Bush Derangement Syndrome” a term coined by the columnist Dr. Charles Krauthammer.
Why not Scott McClellen and Colin Powell?
Anybody else notice how much the RATS are like commies these days.
