Krauthammer's Conclusion…

DECEMBER 11, 2006 --

Charles Krauthammer, in The Washington Post, December 8, took an "if it looks likes, walks like and talks like a duck, chances are it is a duck" approach to
the death in London of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko, noting that "[o]pponents of [Russian president Vladimir] Putin have been fallling like
flies."

Well, in 1935, three United States senators opposed to the policies of President Franklin D. Roosevelt
fell like flies- Bronson Murray Cutter (plane crash), Huey Long (shooting), Thomas Schall (struck by vehicle in D.C.) . Time to look into these matters?

P.S. And in 1940, during the Battle of Britain, isolationist Senator Ernest Lundeen was killed in a plane crash.

Is it time to ask Prime Minister Blair to look into this death?
