Combine these two with the four Congressmen who were very nearly shot down in Iraq a few days ago, and this is beginning to sound a little fishy.

I've got no speculation or insight, but oh my god:
"'We're just trying to pull ourselves together,' said son Reagan Dunn.

@Godless_Liberal: I probably shouldn't say "Wouldn't it be awesome if some SPECTRE-style group or space aliens or some vampire syndicate was killing off EVERYBODY in Congress?" But I'll say it, because it would be fucking awesome.

Raise the Terror Alert to...

BLACKWATCH PLAID!

I'm betting they keeled over when they opened their newspapers to find that Larry Craig was re-thinking his decision to resign.

So who will be the third Rep. to die? Reckless speculation please.

Forget Fredo, where is Rove?

Ex-Rep. Dunn's other two kids were named Bryant...and Angus. You KNOW she shook somebody allll nighhht lawwwng.

@Ken Layne: Like our soon to be Emperor in Chief Cheney? I mean, Dubya's has a long flight back.....who knows what could happen?

@JamieSommers: Hassert's been running at the back of the herd lately......

Could this be the rapture, just happening in slo-mo? Maybe God's servers are backed up, so the upload speed is low.

@plutoboy: He already said vampire syndicate, that covers Cheney. No wait, there's only one Cheney.... or is there?!?

If you're after getting the money, hey, then you don't go killing all the congress people.

@PeteJäyhawk™: Any stall, any time. Bring your wings.

Since all of these deaths occurred at night, my money is on someone forgetting to feed Cheney.

And we here in Washington are use to Reagan Dunn. I thought it was a given that when you take your blood oath to join the Republicans you have to name something after Reagan.

Perhaps a friendly little GOP reminder to those who might associate with the Injuns as they circle the wagons!

Cheney obviously needed some spare parts.

1. compare their contributions list.
2. compare legislative records.
3. check reagan airport bathroom security cameras.
4. question the suspects.
5. arrest tucker carlson and beat him up for the heck of it.

i got nothin'

What a perfect time for a certain (for now) Senator from Idaho to have committed the perfect crimes. Who would think to suspect him, when he's obviously got more important fish to fry? Huh?

Huh?

Of course, it all makes sense: Merv Griffin recently faked his death in order to devote more time to his career as the Elevator Killer!

Gillmore was a moderate, Craig was gay, obviously someone or SOMETHING (Cheney) is culling the heard. The Dunn woman probably knew too much.

@Outstando: Was that the most convoluted Joe Strummer reference ever, or did I just imagine that?

When did they know it?

@Ken Layne:

I know, I'm overreaching. To be candid, I'm still a little shaken-up from being called retarded.

One day back on the job and it kills them?
Is Congress that boring?

@ret3: oooooooh, I like to kill.

It's a black ops fire sale people. They've decided no matter what happens, it's a Democrat majority for a while so they're thinning the herd. Damn you Larry Craig!

Barzini's dead. So is Philip Tattaglia... Mo Green... Stratchi... Cumio. Today I took care of all family business, Outstando, so don't tell me you're innocent.

@Outstando: Wait, you're really retarded? I just called your Time Travel Craig theory retarded, which is basically a compliment around here.

@Lionel Hutz: This quote keeps showing up in different comment threads today. I wonder if it has something to do with all these people getting wiped out today?

@Ken Layne: Hmmm, makes you wonder if the checks to those Blackwater guys have been a little tardy lately.

@Ken Layne:

Nah, just means I have nothing original to post.

@grad69: You mean like demolishing a certain bridge to distract the press from your date in court?

Fewer things are funnier than sudden pulmonary embolism at a relatively early age. This place cheers me up enormously.

* One congressman and one recently-retired congresswoman found dead, separately, in their separate apartments, in Alexandria and Washington. Both Republicans. What Did They Know? * One 44-year-old Hedge Fund manager found floating in the pool at his Florida mansion.

maybe "they" are practicing for bigger game. just sayin.

Quick, everyone! To the bathrooms! The monster will never find us in there!!

I think I overheard a little birdie say Henry Bowman just breezed into town. *whistling*
