Steve Kangas: His web site, Liberalism Resurgent, was meticulously researched and presented such a problem to the "real boss" of George Bush, Richard Scaife, that he hired a private detective to look into Kangas' past. Steve Kangas was found in a 39th-floor bathroom outside of Scaife's offices at One Oxford Centre, in Pittsburgh, an apparent suicide. Mr. Kangas, a very prolific writer, left no note. He had brought a fully-packed suitcase of clothes with him to Pittsburgh. He bought a burglar alarm shortly before he left for Pittsburgh. Why did he need a burglar alarm if he was going to commit suicide? An avowed advocate of gun control, he nevertheless bought a gun. What was he afraid of? Why did he go to Pittsburgh? After his death, his computer was sold for $150 and its hard drive wiped clean. Everything in his apartment was thrown away.
Note the detailed list of Kangas' activities prior to his death. They conveniently omit the fact that LEO found him with "$14.63 in his pockets and a nearly empty whiskey bottle nearby". Also surveillances cameras in the building show Kangas spent nearly nine hours inside One Oxford Center before he was discovered and killed himself.

Hmm. These Bush Body Count people seem to be implying that Scaife hired detectives to research Kangas before Kangas's apparent assassination attempt. That's incorrect, to my knowledge.
For obvious reasons, Scaife hired investigators to probe Kangas' background after the man's body turned up outside Scaife's office. But nothing I have read indicates that Scaife knew of Kangas' existence before then.
Looks to me as if the lefties are up to their old tricks again — telling lies.
