Isn't it strange that Christopher Reeve die days after he is

[liberal N proud]

mentioned in the Debate as a candidate for Stem Cell Research benefits?
I am not trying to tread on any sacred ground here but there are too many coincidental happenings like this that scare the hell out of me.
Kerry mentions Reeve on Friday and he is dead by Monday, Coincidence?

[acmavm]

1. Coincidence? What else could it have been?

.

[JI7]

2. Many people mention Reeve when talking about the stem cell issue

since he was very much involved in the issue.

[WilliamPitt]

3. Kerry had Reeve whacked to score points in the third debate

Right?

[Jeff in Cincinnati]

5. It's the most logical conclusion...

I am, of course, just kidding.

[Guaranteed]

6. Of course not, but it is a freaky coincidence. nt

[Zorra]

11. Will - who the fuck knows with the GD nazis we have in power now?

"He developed heart problems as a result of a medical condition for which he was being treated at Northern Westchester Hospital. He lapsed into a coma and passed away with his wife and other close family members at his side."

I firmly believe that the PNAC would kill anyone that stands in their way.

That said, it was probably natural causes, unless, of course, the PNAC murdered him.

Straussian philosophy - global death through psychopathy.

We have to face the facts - the PNAC would kill their crippled little sister for a cigarette.

12. Christopher Reeve was not standing "in their way", stop the madness nt

4. If it isn't,

I sure wouldn't want to be mentioned by Kerry in the next debate, and nor would anyone else. :P

Conspiracy theories are often bull, but what about Kelly, that weapons inspector who 'cut his wrists'? Is that also coincidence?

We're having a lot of coincidences here.

I wonder if Kerry is 'having suicidal thoughts' too? Man, if there was ever someone who I'd recommnend a bullet-proof body armor to, it's him and Edwards.

7. Reeve "Coincidence"

It is strange. Also, why would the Drudge Report be the first to pick up on it. Who is the weapons inspector that slashed his wrists?
When I hear death and coincidence when Rove is involved I get chills. Does anyone remember Hatfield? The guy that wrote an expose on Bush, was ruined by Rove, and supposedly commited suicide? Google Hatfield and manner of death; pretty interesting. rove stops at nothing. But Reeve...

[cali]

8. No. No. And No.

It's not at all strange.

[Deb]

9. No more of a coincidence that we live in a country

who's pResident is so lacking in compassion that he would deny the medical research materials needed to prolong and improve the quality of life for it's citizens.

I hope that Christopher Reeve lived to know that stem cell research was part of the Kerry/bush debate.

[Cooley Hurd]

10. Anyone know Hillary's whereabouts yesterday?

(insert an ominous bum-bum-BUMMMM! here):evilgrin:

13. It is unfortunate that Reeve passed away....

but there are no conspiracy theories here.

Chris Reeve died of complications froma systemic infection brought on by a decubitus ulcer. This should, if the truth be told, never have happened. Decub's are preventable, and once established, they can be very difficult to treat.

Let the man rest in peace. He was a brave man who fought for others to have thier futures changed by stem cell research. He was a good man, and he should be remembered as a caring individual.

Thank you for reading this...let's put all of the "conspiracy theories" to rest.

14. I'm locking this thread.

This is just a little but much, even for DU.
