Early this morning, news broke that Sen. Ted Kennedy had passed away after serving in the U.S. Senate for nearly 50 years. Soon after, conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart began a sustained assault on Kennedy’s memory, tweeting “Rest in Chappaquiddick.”

Over the course of the next three hours, Breitbart unapologetically attacked Kennedy, calling him a “villain,” “a big ass motherf@#$er,” a “duplicitous bastard” and a “prick.” “I’ll shut my mouth for Carter. That’s just politics. Kennedy was a special pile of human excrement,” wrote Breitbart in one tweet.

Is that the same coroner that investigated Breitbart's death? I don't think it is, but not sure.

I googled "breitbart coroner arsenic." Seems like this was the Breitbart coroner. WTF? Lawless, for good or bad. Shame...

Sailordeek : Yep. Breitbart was truly assassinated.

Now the ``official coroner report`` will say ``natural death`` or some BS like that.

No way he died naturally. In politics, there's no coincidences.

The conspiracy theory about the death of conservative commentator Andrew Breitbart just got juicier -- that is, if you're willing to make a few leaps of faith.

After Breitbart died suddenly of heart failure on March 1, it didn't take long for Internet conspiracy theorists to accuse President Barack Obama of murdering him.

Now, the recent Los Angeles Times report that Michael Cormier, an LA County forensic technician, may have died due to arsenic poisoning has reignited conspiratorial fire, given that Cormier died on April 20, the same day as the release of Breibart's autopsy.

The fact that Breitbart died on the day that he told everybody to watch out for as he was going to be releasing some information could be written off as coincidence. The fact that the coroner dies on the same day he's supposed to release the autopsy for Breitbart falls well into the extreme though as far as coincidences go. No "leap of faith" required there IMHO.

I just love the way some people attach the word "conspiracy" onto theory to give it some "woo woo" tin-foil hat flavor.

Adding up the facts surrounding his death and his coroner's lead some thinking people to believe they were both murdered.

Simple as that.

Law enforcement sources told the Times that the presence of poison in Cormier does not necessarily point to a homicide as the substance may have entered his system by accident. However, the police haven't ruled out foul play, and Cormier's cause of death has been deferred pending further tests.

From the article above...

I love that...apparently, like me, he must keep his arsenic next to his salt on the dining room table...doesn't everyone?

Kinda like how bullets entered Vince Foster's head, from behind, by accident.

Then that would be "death by chicken feed". The arsenic passes through the animal's gut to deworm it. Alternatively, I guess it could be death by chicken poop.

What is LA county serving in the employee cafeteria during these hard times anyway?

Azusgm: Recent studies show that the arsenic ends up in the meat too.
