And the tinfoil hat DUmpsters will STILL maintain that the pilot must have been a Bush or RNC plant, some sort of Minnesotan Manchurian Candidate.

They have no shame.

Note to DU lurkers: The man is dead. It was tragic and unexpected, but life happens. So does death. Get over it and move on.

"In August, the families of the Wellstones and the campaign workers reached a $25 million settlement with Aviation Charter Inc. of Eden Prairie, Minn., which operated the flight. Company attorney Mike Lindberg said the settlement was not an acknowledgment of pilot error or responsibility by company management but "a way to avoid ongoing litigation."

Wait a minute! WHAT?!

They have no shame.

They have no sanity.
