Rob, Your thoughts echoed mine when I heard about this; my first being, Lay dead; yeah right! My second was, I bet it's a scam - Kenny-Boy's a big-time scammer after all. Yes, let's see all the evidence, including ex-Enron staff prodding him with sharp objects. All the best, Stix.

Is Ken Lay really dead, or did his brothers in crime, Bushy and Cheneykov, actually have him murdered. Either by pardon or death, Ken got off easy. Now how will the victims of this giant sham/scam, called Enron, be compensated for their losses? Maybe the Bush Administration will give them free passes to the funeral. MMmmmmm Mmmmmmm!!!

It reminds me of the time the head of the CIA for Reagan, Cassey died just before he was to tistify againist the Iran Contra Scandel..but nobody was as paranoid as we are now...yes they might have rigged it so Kenny Boy gets away. It would make a hellvua made for Television movie. So keep up the paranoia, just because your paranoid does not mean they are not following you.

It's because of thoughts like this that the Russian communists had the embalmed bodies of deceased dictators laid out in State and open for public viewing.

I can think of a few I'd like to see laid out, so we could be certain.

Two points. 1) Of course they won't do an extremely careful autopsy. It will propably not exactly take that much effort anyway...it will be pretty obvious...too obvious. And do they have a choice about what they report? No matter if republican or democrat! 2) Are you serious about Kenney going out buying fake ID? This man already has had the best fake ID, and more than one alternative, for a very long time! (He doesn't need Bush's permission for that....only a friend who has access to the Fed's computer system) I read somewhere that what the feds do best is change names and print money.

Just don't even think about getting checked out by a psychiatrist!! Then you are really in trouble! 'Good bye' to all the civil and human rights you may potentially still have now, and without a psychiatris involved. (that is, if you have never used the word 'conspiracy')

Remember 'The Third Man?' If they have Lay's body and can certify it is his, stuff it and put it on show. Er, while we're about it, we might do the same with a few more of the equally guilty conspirators in the great game of screw the goyim we have here. If they have the supposed body and can't certify it is Lay's, then we even more urgently need to carry out phase 2.

I personally think he is living under the White House in the basement with Osama bin Laden DNA testing should be in the equation also But if he gone Good riddance! The world is a better place without him.

I don't believe this one at all. I recommend there be proof beyond any doubt that this Ken Lay is dead and there is not a double being used so that Ken Lay can hide somewhere with all the money he stole. He was convicted of fraud, etc. and could have been sentenced to life. Look at the timing of this death. He faced life in prison and his heart gave out. Perfect cover for a fake death. If he is presumed dead who would look for him? He has the financial resources and powerful friends (Bush family, etc.) to pull off a fraudulent death to escape justice. There must be an independent source allowed to verify the death of Ken Lay. I wouldn't trust any government entity that would say it is Ken Lay that is dead!

I wanted to skip this but so many comments..: Some thoughts: 1.So far we had several suspicious deaths of prominent people starting with Sen Wellstone and his wife and ending with Ken Lay. Proper professional investigation is in order and that is what we all maybe should ask for. Actually, even if the people were not prominent the issue of proper investigation is very relevant. Did you notice how many deaths are happening now on routine basis in the situations which before would not result in those? Like killing of the mentally challenged person in the airport or a schoolboy in Florida? 2. Arlen Specter, the 'magic bullet' man is now a GOP senator. That tells you what is rewarded in this country and how the 'law' operates. 3. Although Mr. Lay was not a sympathetic individual and a convicted felon, the real perpetrators are not only free but in power. And with Lay's death justice most likely will never take place. 4. This is just a small correction about one of the comments above. Russian communists embalmed only two people: Lenin and Stalin. Lenin's body is still in the Mousoleum on the Red Square. He was in charge of Russia only for about 5 years ( 1917-1923), four of which were Civil War and in 1918 he was severely wounded in the assassination attempt. Hardly a 'dictator'. Unlike him Stalin did last as a dictator for a long time but very shortly after his embalment after his death in 1953 he was taken out of the Mousoleum and his ashes is now in the Kremlin wall. No one else was embalmed in Russia and if the leader died there his/her body was given a public access for a day to bid the final farewells. Normal thing. As far as I know Chinese embalmed only Mao.

If 'they' can schlep out to China unimpeded so many hundred thousand tons of steel evidence of 9-11 'wrongdoing' and from the highest level prevent any significant inquiry into the event itself, the only way that this present Lay detail can be proved will be to impound the body and have a public autopsy, fingerprints, DNA and all. And not let 'anybody' go anywhere till the evidence is out.

Oh, dear god, do we have to go there? This will make me bonkers if I have to think about it very long. "Living under he White House with bin Laden"? Bwahahahah. I have been wondering where Barbara Olsen is for years. The sad thing is, that once officials start lying out there arses, about everything on earth, and no one seems to be willing or able to hold them accountable, this is what happens. I frankly think that Lay is dead. I would imagine that the last almost 5 years has been torture for him, because he got caught and just about everyone in his home town of Houston hates his guts. There is one interesting 'far out' connection with Cheney and Colorado, where Lay died. Wasn't it in Aspen or near Aspen where Cheney checked secretly, into a clinic(or tried to)? I can't remember now, just when this was, but Arianna posted about it. Apparently, someone on staff at the clinic informed Huffington Post that Cheney had been seen entering the orthopedic clinic, which he walked through to a cardiac clinic of somekind. Makes you wonder if the GOP has their own medical staff in that state, who will keep their secrets. They have done so many horrible things in the last 5 years, it is hard to put anything past them.

If you are still wondering about Barbara Olsen go to the Arlington National Cemetary website. You won't find ANYTHING there that would give you a clue. Compare the list of names that Arlington SAYS are buried in a common urn with the flight manifest of Flight77. NONE of the names on that flight manifest can be accounted for. And NONE of the some 11 that were "said" to have been buried were identified though only ONE was believed to have been either a son or daughter of two parents whose names appeared on the flight manifest. It's all so murky and, perhaps, deliberately so. Though the buried were "named", NONE were "identified". And, save for the one "un"-identifed child, NONE of the "buried" were on the passengers list. I have covered plane crashes, including those of high speed fighter jets. I've NEVER seen crashes so bad or fires so hot that some 60 bodies would completely vaporize. NEVER. It just does not happen. About Olson, Wikipedia says: She had reported the hijacking to him [Ted Olson, Solicitor General] by phone about 20 minutes before the plane hit the Pentagon. That may not have been possible. It was not until 2004, that Qualcomm Corporation issued a press release touting their NEW technology that would now make it possible to make cell phone calls from airliners in flight. So ...the retort "where are the bodies?" is not a criticism of the so-called "conspiracy theorists", it may be the Achilles Heel of Bush's OFFICIAL conspiracy theory, the one about crazy assed "...turrsts who jest hate freedom!"
