Conspiracy Theory: Caroline Kennedy received death threats

It is being reported here (the Philly Independent Media Center) and here (the Cleveland Indy Media Center) that Caroline Kennedy received multiple death threats during the time she was in consideration for the Senate seat vacated by Hillary Clinton. They claim it's an inside job from the CIA. Both cite their main source to be conspiracy theorist blogger Tom Heneghan, and his blog, Tom Heneghan's Intelligence Briefing.

Not saying I believe it. These are the same folks who claim Obama re-swore the Oath of Office after thwarting a coup. Not to mention the fairly blatant anti-Semitic language. The article, Obama Re-Sworn To Office After Foiling Coup Attempt, published on the English site of Bella Ciao, makes reference to Kennedy's involvement in the coup as well; it is, however, so confusing that after reading every word of it four times now, I am still unsure exactly what they think is going on.

Opinion On Clinton Senate Seat

Here are a few of my thoughts on replacing Hillary Clinton in the Senate:

• I believe a woman should be selected. There are plenty of qualified women.


• If Caroline Kennedy is appointed, particularly if there is any (even soft) pressure from Obama to do so, I think it is a clear sign that Washington and the President-elect are just fine with "dynastic politics."


• Fran Drescher is at least as qualified as Sweet Caroline.
  Don't get me wrong. Caroline Kennedy is a phenomenal woman. But, I think any Kennedy that wants a political seat should get elected.


• Just for good measure I'll say it again: I believe a woman should be selected. There are plenty of qualified women. How about a gay, Mexican, Jewish woman. Let's just go all out on the symbology.
