LOS ANGELES -- A man was arrested and accused of mailing threatening letters laced with white powder to Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, David Letterman and other high-profile figures, the FBI announced Sunday.

FBI agents took Chad Conrad Castagana, 39, into custody Saturday on charges of conveying false information and sending threats via the U.S. mail, the bureau said in a statement.

He was still active as of this morning, but he has only been a FR since February 2006.... not exactly a long-term FR and heaven knows we get enough trolls here that we shouldn't all be painted with the same brush. Reading some of his posts shows how we can be used by someone who is determined to make us all look bad.

Yes - already posted - but as seen in a "liberal blog". This is the Washington Post with an AP story. (OK both liberal but ...)

Oooh, a "conspiracy." These stupid DUmpster divers apparently don't realize they're involved themselves, since this person posted to Democratic Underground as well.

Authorities said they watched Castagana, who is unemployed, walk from his home to a public mailbox Thursday and deposit several letters. One was allegedly addressed to someone previously targeted and contained the white powder, the FBI said.

One has to be very bad at practicing mischief to be caught this way unless you are simple very stupid, crazy, or want to get caught. This is not a conservative.

Really?

That would be especially rich after all the hoopla, dancing on the carcass, and high fiving they are doing over there most likely.
