If you're wanting to make some cash off a good conspiracy theory...

...the recent death of Kenneth Lay seems like it'd be pregnant with possibilities.

I mean, a guy convicted of bilking employees out of their retirement plans and such while profiting personally, who then dies before sentencing. This means that, because he didn't exhaust all his legal appeals before dying, that his personal estate can't be touched by those wronged by his actions. Died of a heart attack in Colorado yesterday. Hmmm...

...or Rush Limbaugh's recent "doctor shopping" episode. This thrice-divorced, admitted-user-of-illegally-obtained-Oxycontin radio host gets away with a violation of his already suspect "probation." See, he's on a short leash because of his drug issues already, and comes back into this country with a prescription bottle that doesn't have his name on it. Now, granted it was Viagra and maybe this simply is an issue where a star wants his privacy, but still. You can conspire away on him getting away with it when somebody else wouldn't. Now, why this "Paragon of Virtue" and defender of "conservative values" has any Viagra when he isn't married (or I couldn't find evidence on the Web of a fourth wife--but a good consipiracy theory wouldn't let facts stand in the way)...

Those are two good ones to get you started. What else am I missing out on conspiracy theory wise?
