Conspiracy theories will never cease, and in this case sure it could be that someone murdered the Judge in an attempt to allow Obama to swing the court, which surely he will try, but I agree with the facts that tend to support a natural death.

The man was 79 year old  and had heart troubles along with, like most of us, overweight and enjoyed eating what he wanted to eat.  I fully believe that his death was natural.

I also have no doubt Obama will attempt to use the death to swing the court in a very liberal direction.  Thankfully for conservatives thanks to Obama's and the Democrat's performance in Obama's first years, the Republicans now control both houses of Congress and with the Senate have the ability to stop it.  I don't have a problem with a liberal minded judge but I do have  problem with a political judge who would place the actual Constitution behind political leanings of the nation.

I just love the Hypocrisy of the Democrats though who are now in the very position that the Republicans were in years ago when they did the exact same thing.  Now what was good for them isn't good for the Republicans.  One of the greatest hypocritical things was Harry Reid, of all people, stating that holding up the appointment of a Judge would be an insult to the Senate or something like that.  Harry Reid the very person who used the Senate and his position to knowingly lie about Romney's taxes.  Harry Reid deliberately and knowingly lied about Romney's taxes in a successful attempt to damage his Campaign for the presidency in 2012.  Then after it was revealed he lied deliberately he was not sorry but gloated over it.  Seems like Harry Reid and Hillary have something in common, willingly lying for political expedience.  Harry Reid did it to politically hurt Romney and Hillary did it to Protect Obama and her from political damage. 

With Hillary though she's hurting the innocent relatives of those killed in Benghazi.  Still it hasn't been determined all that Hillary contributed to events that led up to the Benghazi attack but then she lied to the relatives blaming the deaths of their loved ones on a YouTube video to protect Obama's reelection and now claim it's not her but the relatives that lied to protect her own campaign yet so many are willing to overlook that and vote for her.   I just wonder if they would feel the same way if the dead were their own relatives?

 

Apples and oranges, GBRK.  Harry Reid's machinations re Romney's taxes and Hillary's actions  re Benghazi have NOTHING to do with the cause of Scalia's death or the views of Democrats relative to filling the Supreme Court vacancy. Your comments would have been much more credible without that extraneous and irrelevant stuff.

Here's a little something, Qurtendahh..........

 

Two days after Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia died suddenly in remote West Texas, a former D.C. homicide commander is raising questions about how the death was handled by local and federal authorities.

 

“As a former homicide commander, I am stunned that no autopsy was ordered for Justice Scalia,” William O. Ritchie, former head of criminal investigations for D.C. police, wrote in a post on Facebook on Sunday.

[The death of Antonin Scalia: Chaos, confusion and conflicting reports

Scalia was found dead in his room at a luxury hunting resort in the state’s Big Bend region by the resort’s owner. It took hours for authorities to find a justice of the peace. When they did, Presidio County Judge Cinderela Guevara pronounced Scalia dead of natural causes without seeing the body — which is permissible under Texas law — and without ordering an autopsy.

On Sunday, the U.S. Marshals Service, which provides security for Supreme Court justices, said that Scalia had declined a security detail while at the ranch, so marshals were not present when he died. When the marshals were notified, deputy marshals from the Western District of Texas went to the scene, the service said in a statement.

Guevara said she declared Scalia dead based on information from law enforcement officials on the scene, who assured her that “there were no signs of foul play.” She also spoke to Scalia’s doctor, who told her that the justice had been to see him Wednesday and Thursday last week for a shoulder injury and that he had ordered an MRI for Scalia, according to WFAA-TV in Dallas. The 79-year-old justice also suffered from several chronic conditions, Guevara said. She said she was awaiting a statement from the physician to complete Scalia’s death certificate.

 

The manager of the El Paso funeral home that handled Scalia’s body said Scalia’s family insisted on not having an autopsy done. But the decision has spawned a host of conspiracy theories online, as well as skeptical questions from law enforcement experts such as Ritchie.

“You have a Supreme Court Justice who died, not in attendance of a physician,” he wrote. “You have a non-homicide trained US Marshal tell the justice of peace that no foul play was observed. You have a justice of the peace pronounce death while not being on the scene and without any medical training opining that the justice died of a heart attack. What medical proof exists of a myocardial Infarction? Why not a cerebral hemorrhage?”

In an interview with The Washington Post, Guevara has said she rebutted a report by a Dallas TV station that Scalia had died of “myocardial infarction.” She said she meant only that his heart had stopped.

Ritchie also raised questions about the marshals’ actions:

“How can the Marshal say, without a thorough post mortem, that he was not injected with an illegal substance that would simulate a heart attack…”

“Did the US Marshal check for petechial hemorrhage in his eyes or under his lips that would have suggested suffocation? Did the US Marshal smell his breath for any unusual odor that might suggest poisoning? My gut tells me there is something fishy going on in Texas.”

A spokesman for the marshals service said Monday that the marshals did not make a formal determination of death. He directed questions to the county judge who made the call.

Scalia’s physician, Brian Monahan, is a U.S. Navy rear admiral and the attending physician for the U.S. Congress and Supreme Court. He declined to comment on Scalia’s health when reached by telephone Monday at his home in Maryland.

“Patient confidentiality forbids me to make any comment on the subject,” he said.

When asked whether he planned to make public the statement he’s preparing for Guevara, Monahan repeated the same statement and hung up on a reporter.

Scalia could have been poisoned: forensics pathologist

 

Lethal poisoning could have left Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia’s body in virtually the same condition in which it was found, a top forensic pathologist told The Post Wednesday.

“It would look like he’s asleep. It doesn’t show anything on the body,” said Dr. Michael Baden, who spent 25 years in the city’s chief Medical Examiner’s Office.

Still, Baden stressed that natural causes was a plausible explanation.

That former "homicide commander" with the D.C. police force was not conversant with Texas law or he would not  have stated the principal conclusions he reached.  Read up, Jack:
