This was reported on a few days ago. Found by a man and his family. Investigations are still ongoing.

What makes this political? Im not sure, but Michelle Malkin sure has put her typical political twist on this case.

Its sad that even this can cause politcal spins.

Too bad she couldnt repost the events correctly even in her own blog. The family who found him reported the following...

Good thinking... maybe the killer was trying to tell us that the victim was FED lots of food before he died.

http://demopedia.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x8668754

We need to absolutely expose Glenn Beck, Michele Bachmann, Michelle Malkin, CNN's Lou Dobbs, Michael Steele, Rush Limbaugh and the legion of others parroting right-wing lies for trumping up this nonsense and getting people to now commit murder in a hideous fashion.

Hmmm.

Or he ran across some backwoods fuck(s) who hates gov't types at all times and during all administrations.  My personal guess would be the meth-folk theory.

During the last census, I was visiting some friends who live way off-grid up in Washington (state) when a census man showed up.  He had been looking for their house for two days (on the clock, presumably) and needed to repeat a bunch of questions they had already answered when they received the long form.  It didn't seem like a very safe sort of job then, either.

It also turns out the word FED was written on his chest with a magic marker. He was found with his wrists tied, and hung from a tree, in classic lynching style.

Frankly, I would not be surprised to find out, when they find him, that the murderer was a regular Glenn Beck listener. But that's just me. We'll find out more as the investigation goes on.

This is why I don't think this was done by some pot grower or similiar sort using the NF for illegal reasons. All this did was bring down the FBI on the area. Maybe a meth cooker would do something dumb like this but even then its a lot of trouble to go to.

What joke, Mars?  That it doesn't seem like a safe job to go asking personal questions of people who have chosen to live way the fuck out in the sticks? 

I don't find it surprising at all that you are latching into exactly the mentality that Michelle was addressing in her column, that of using this awful tragedy to further divide and polarize the country, by demonizing anyone who doesn't agree with "your side."  That approach is SO going to backfire in a few years

Ah!  Of course!  That would explain why the key link wasn't one of the three in the OP.  It isn't nearly as funny once we see that people ARE trying to blame this tragic (apparent) murder on conservative voices...

I'll keep my opinion to myself on this one, there are just  too many variables to it to simply declare one possibility.  Except the chap is still dead. My prayers go out to his family

Although there was that girl who carved "B" into her forehead backwards last year, wasn't there?
