Hartnett Has His Suspicions About Wellstone's Plane Crash

Count Josh Hartnett among the conspiracy buffs regarding Sen. Paul Wellstone's untimely death in a 2002 plane crash in northern Minnesota. The cover boy in this month's GQ says, " 'It didn't make any sense' " about the accident that killed Wellstone, his wife, Sheila, their daughter, the pilots and three others.

"He's angry, and he's not convinced that pilot error or mechanical failure or fog was to blame for the crash," writes GQ's Alex Pappademas, who noted that Hartnett "points out how close the race was, how Republicans were hell-bent on winning control of the Senate, how George W. Bush" made several visits to Minnesota "to support Wellstone's opponent, Norm Coleman."

Hartnett is quoted as saying, "It was really, really suspicious, but I don't even want to think that. I just hope it's not true, because that would just be so, so, so wrong."

I wouldn't normally get involved in something like this but the discrepancies in this crash- this, let's say it, murder- are so jarring that I felt I just had to speak out.

As a longtime expert I feel that I have valid engineering and scientific insight to offer and I want to do it on Oprah or The View.

"Rove was all set to put hallucinogens in the air ducts"

It was Agent 15 from Iraq's arsenal, that Rove had moved to Ft Dietrich.

Hartnett was in that awful "Pearl Harbor" movie, 'nuff said.

The Democrats planned the crash.

Please see my post # 75.

And we are all glad to DID decide to get involved.
If you get on The View, I know Rosie at least will
be in your corner on this issue. She is still on the show right? What too few appreciate about her is her expertise in so many fields, including this one, plane-crashology.Ping us all for your media tour. Post photographs too.

Another minor point- as well as being a genius, he was a champion wretler. He should have been able to take over the controls from the pilot and use his intelligence and strength to safely land the plane, if the plane were intact at the time.

Professor Corey, is that you?

G.W. Bush supports the republican candidate, so naturally he should be suspected of conspiracy to commit murder.

hmmm.. President Bush was here yesterday supporting the republican candidate. Wonder if Napolitano is worried?

[DBrow]

That question came up on an earlier post- I have no idea who Professor Corey is, sorry.

Nor am I Ali Hakem.

"If the plane were intact...."
a big, a VERY big "IF". And I have lost track of who or what the subject is..... "as well as being a genius, he was a champion wrestler"---who? Josh Hartnett? Wellstone?
the aforementioned golfer who Tiger Woods and Pete Rose were betting on? (Pause) See how easily they can play with our minds? (Long pause) It suddenly occurs to me that the Instant Message I was discussing on another thread concerning Mark Foley, the one I got from an online Gay
in an AOL Chatroom 10 years ago........could have in fact been from Mark Foley.....in his "training period"........

Conditions were freezing that day and the plane had to be deiced before takeoff if I recall correctly. Further, that plane supposedly had potential problems with exactly those conditions. Now factor in the reality that Wellstone's pilot LIED about his certification on that aircraft and was in wa-a-a-ay over his head.

Too bad for all of them, but them's the facts.
